Trump defends making over $1 billion in crypto amid conflict-of-interest criticism
US President Donald Trump defended earning around $1.2 billion from his family's cryptocurrency activities, saying "everybody's profiting" from his time in power.
The president has also rejected the idea that he is using his position to enrich himself.
The comments come before Trump prepared to take his first flight on a new Air Force One plane gifted by Qatar.
