华盛顿8月19日电(路透社)——路透社/益普索的一项最新民调显示,多数美国人认为总统唐纳德·特朗普及其家人自他重返政坛以来,通过加密货币不当牟利,且他的政策决策受到私人商业交易的影响。

这项为期四天的民调于周一结束,结果显示,特朗普所在的共和党中有一半人认为总统允许其商业利益考量影响决策,这对于一位曾承诺整治华盛顿腐败的领导人而言,是一个令人震惊的发现。

特朗普出身于纽约房地产家族,在参选前已将自己的名字打造成全球知名品牌。去年,他从家族的加密货币业务中获利超过14亿美元,其中包括世界自由金融公司(World Liberty Financial)和特朗普模因币,这些数字资产他曾公开大力推广。2025年3月,也就是他第二个任期开始两个月后,总统在社交媒体上为自己品牌的加密货币币做宣传,称其为“最棒的加密货币!!!!!!!!!!”

约63%的受访者认为特朗普及其家人以这种方式牟利是不当的,32%的人认为此举恰当,其余受访者未回答该问题。约三成共和党受访者认为这些交易不当,而七成共和党人认为交易合适。

民主党人常在11月的中期选举前抨击本届政府被指存在腐败行为,此次选举将决定未来两年国会的控制权。而特朗普政府则誓言调查民主党执政州被指存在的腐败问题。

特朗普称,自重返政坛以来,他没有参与家族企业的日常运营,其投资由独立机构管理。在竞选期间他曾争取加密货币行业的支持,在第二个任期内推行了支持加密货币的政策。

白宫驳斥了所有不当行为指控,称特朗普的投资由独立金融机构管理。

“不存在利益冲突,”白宫发言人安娜·凯利在一份声明中表示。“总统行事仅以美国公众的最大利益为依归。”

“前所未见”

但总统伦理专家称,当前白宫出现商业与政治的交汇是史无前例的。

“我们此前从未见过这种情况,即使是首届特朗普政府,也没有第二届特朗普政府这么多复杂的商业利益,”共和党总统乔治·W·布什的首席伦理律师理查德·佩因特说道。

约69%的美国人——包括三分之二的无党派人士和九成民主党人——表示他们认为特朗普的私人商业利益正在影响其总统决策。

美国人对于特朗普政府下的腐败情况是否比近期其他总统任内更严重存在分歧。民主党人大多认为腐败问题更严重,而共和党人则大致平分秋色,56%的共和党人认为腐败情况至少略有改善,其余受访者认为情况持平或更糟。

“这令人担忧,”威斯康星州卡迪哈的半退休交通协管员托马斯·施密特说道,他2024年曾投票给特朗普,但今年对总统已经不再满意。“他应该更关注总统职务,而非自己的商业行为。”

施密特表示,他最担忧的是特朗普无法控制通胀,也无法让美国从他引发的与伊朗的战争中脱身。他认为特朗普在将商业交易与政治结合方面并不比其他总统特殊。“我认为每位总统都做过类似的事情。”

特朗普在2016年总统竞选获胜期间就承诺打击华盛顿的腐败,也就是他所说的“抽干沼泽”。

公众对特朗普个人敛财的看法可能会在11月的中期选举中影响其所在政党,此次选举将决定在他任期的最后两年里谁将掌控国会。美国人认为各级政府普遍存在腐败现象,四成民主党人表示他们对贪污受贿极为愤怒,而共和党人中这一比例为四分之一。当被问及哪个政党更腐败时,41%的受访者指向民主党,49%的受访者指向共和党。

路透社/益普索的这项民调通过线上方式进行,于8月14日至17日期间对全美1166名美国成年人进行了调查。所有美国人的调查结果误差幅度为3个百分点,民主党、共和党和无党派人士的误差幅度为5个百分点。

Most Americans believe Trump has inappropriately profited since returning to power, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

2026-08-19T10:04:00.869Z / Reuters

WASHINGTON, Aug 19 (Reuters) – A majority of Americans believe President Donald Trump and his family have inappropriately profited from ​cryptocurrency since his return to power and that his policy decisions are influenced by his private business dealings, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

The four-day poll, completed ‌on Monday, found that half of Trump’s own Republicans believe the president allows considerations for his business interests to influence his decisions, a striking finding for a leader who pledged to clean up corruption in Washington.

Trump was born into a New York real estate family and built his name into a globally recognized brand before running for office. He earned more than $1.4 billion last year from his family’s cryptocurrency ventures, including ​World Liberty Financial and the Trump meme coin, digital assets he has publicly championed. In March 2025, two months into his second term, the president called attention ​on social media to his self-branded crypto coin, describing it as the “Greatest of them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Some 63% of respondents said it was inappropriate ⁠for Trump and his family to have profited in that way, while 32% said it was appropriate and the rest did not answer the question. About three in 10 Republican respondents called the ​deals inappropriate, while seven in ten said they were appropriate.

Democrats regularly highlight alleged corruption in the administration ahead of the November midterm elections that will determine control of Congress for the ​next two years, while Trump’s administration has vowed to investigate alleged corruption in Democratic-run states.

Trump says that he has had no day-to-day role in his family’s business since returning to office and that his investments are independently managed. He has pursued crypto-friendly policies in his second term, after courting crypto cash on the campaign trail.

The White House dismissed any allegations of impropriety, saying Trump’s investments were managed by independent financial ​institutions.

“There are no conflicts of interest,” White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said in a statement. “The President only acts in the best interests of the American public.”

‘NOTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE’

But ​experts on presidential ethics called the current confluence of business and politics in the White House unprecedented.

“We have seen nothing like this before, even the first Trump administration did not have as many ‌complex business ⁠interests as the second Trump administration,” said Richard Painter, the top ethics lawyer for Republican President George W. Bush.

Some 69% of Americans – including two-thirds of independents and nine in 10 Democrats – said they thought Trump’s private business interests were influencing his presidential decisions.

Americans are divided on whether corruption is worse under the Trump administration than under other recent presidents. Democrats largely think there is more graft, while Republicans are split roughly down the middle, with 56% thinking corruption is at least a little better and the rest thinking it is steady ​or worse.

“It’s concerning,” said Thomas Schmidt, a semi-retired ​crossing guard in Cudahy, Wisconsin, who ⁠voted for Trump in 2024 but has soured on the president this year. “He should be more concerned with his presidency than with his business practices.”

Schmidt said his biggest worries are about Trump’s inability to control inflation or extract the U.S. from the war with Iran that ​he helped start. He doesn’t think Trump is different from other presidents in mixing his business deals with politics. “I think every ​president’s done something like that.”

Trump ⁠campaigned ahead of his 2016 presidential victory on a promise to fight corruption in Washington, or “drain the swamp,” as he put it.

The public’s views of Trump’s personal enrichment could weigh on his party in the November midterm elections, which will determine who controls Congress during the last two years of his term. Americans say corruption is prevalent across all levels of government, with four in 10 Democrats saying ⁠they are extremely ​angry about graft, compared with one in four Republicans. When poll respondents were asked which party was more ​corrupt, 41% pointed to the Democratic Party and 49% to the Republican Party.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll, which was conducted online, surveyed 1,166 U.S. adults nationwide between August 14 and August 17. The results had a margin of error ​of 3 percentage points for all Americans and 5 points for Democrats, Republicans and independents.
