A fistful of dollars: His rich aides

-

PRESIDENT Trump’s most important advisers all entered the White House with millions of dollars to their name, and in some cases fortunes running into the hundreds of millions.

JARED KUSHNER AND IVANKA TRUMP £590M

– Mr Trump’s 36-year-old son-in-law and senior adviser resigned in January from executive positions in more than 200 companies and partnershi­ps. But a report shows that he remains a financial beneficiar­y of most of them.

STEVE BANNON – £43M

Trump’s chief strategist is one of many former Goldman Sachs bankers who have gone on to senior jobs in US government. He is known for his rightwing website Breitbart but his wealth is based on his political consulting firm and another that produces Hollywood films. Earned at least £730,000 in the past year.

KELLYANNE CONWAY – £32M

The former Trump campaign manager and now his counsellor earned around £677,000 in the past year. Conway receives most of her earnings from her former job running a polling and consultanc­y firm.

SEAN SPICER – £5.3M

The White House press spokesman has shares in McDonald’s and Coca-Cola. A former communicat­ions director for Mr Trump, his wealth also includes earnings from property investment­s.

GARY COHN – £478M

The former Wall Street banker, 56, now Trump’s chief economic advisor, earned at least £38million in 2016 and part of 2017. He worked for Goldman Sachs – where he was second-in-command – for 25 years.
