  "account": "On Sunday, Donald Trump sat down for an exclusive interview with ABC News Ross Douthat on the 60 Minutes segment that will air at 7pm ET. This will be Trump's first full-length sit-down since Republicans suffered a major setback in the midterm elections last week. During the interview, snippets shared by 60 Minutes revealed Trump's claim that his personal net worth has increased by around $3 billion since he returned to office in January 2025. Trump appeared evasive when asked about this figure, initially stating that everyone's net worth has gone up since he took office. However, when asked by Ross Douthat if his own net worth had increased by $3 billion, Trump replied, \"Well, you should have had stock.\" Trump further stated that he does not care about his personal wealth, which is managed by his son, a \"very straight, good guy\" who watches over the money. He added, \"I don't care; I have a lot of money. And far more than I ever thought I'd have. And I guess it's gone up. I don't even know. I have a son who's a very straight, good guy. He watches over money. I don't even talk to him about it. He watches.\" Trump also discussed the possibility of a fresh round of strikes on Iran if peace talks with the country progress, stating that it is \"highly unlikely\" such an action would be necessary.",
