The president\u2019s mandatory financial disclosure for 2025 reveals he received $77,808 in pension funds last year, or about $6,484 monthly, from SAG. Trump became eligible for a pension through the union in 1992, the same year he had a cameo in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York<\/em>. He also received an $8,724 annual pension from the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, which he likewise became a member of in 1989.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump reported residuals worth less than $201 each for appearances on programs and films including Zoolander, The Nanny, Sex & the City, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the Ellen Degeneres Show, and Little Rascals<\/em>, according to the filings.<\/p>\n

The payout is just a fraction of the more than $2.2 billion in income Trump disclosed in 2025\u2014an amount far exceeding that of any other president and dwarfing the\u00a0at least $622 million he pulled in prior to his second presidential term in 2024. That total includes $1.4 billion from his family\u2019s cryptocurrency ventures. White House deputy press secretary Anna Kelly told Fortune<\/em> in a statement that neither Trump nor his family has or even will engage in conflicts of interest.<\/p>\n

Trump continues to receive SAG-AFTRA payments despite not being a member for five years. The president resigned from the union in 2021, following threats from SAG-AFTRA to expel him for his involvement in the January 6 Capitol insurrection. Losing union membership does not prohibit anyone from performing, and under federal labor laws, vested members of the union are guaranteed retirement benefits, including a pension.<\/p>\n

Weeks after the riot, SAG-AFTRA voted \u201coverwhelmingly\u201d that there was probable cause Trump had violated the union\u2019s membership terms through his role on January 6, which the union called \u201ca reckless campaign of misinformation aimed at discrediting and ultimately threatening the safety of journalists, many of whom are SAG-AFTRA members.\u201d Trump was later indicted for his attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election that culminated in the siege, but the case was dismissed following his presidential victory in November 2024.<\/p>\n

Prior to a disciplinary committee weighing his case, Trump stepped down from the union, writing in response to the hearing, \u201cWho cares!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI no longer wish to be associated with your union,\u201d Trump wrote in his resignation to the guild. \u201cAs such, this letter is to inform you of my immediate resignation from SAG-AFTRA. You have done nothing for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump made hundreds of millions of dollars through his decades-long career in entertainment, including $427 million from The Apprentice<\/em>, his reality-show vehicle that ran from 2004 to 2015. In 2024, Trump received $102,408 in pension funds from SAG-AFTRA, show.<\/p>\n
