Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) linked to a newly released financial disclosure form that disproves an assertion from President Donald Trump's son.
Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) — bearing actual receipts — called out Eric Trump on social media Friday after the president’s son insisted that the assets of his father are in a blind trust that doesn’t buy or sell individual stocks.
“Outright lies,” Beyers wrote Friday on X. “Trump’s assets aren’t in a blind trust, and he bought and sold individual Nvidia stock in 15 separate transactions totaling millions of dollars. That’s what Trump’s financial disclosure - which has his signature - says. See for yourself.”
The Virginia Democrat then linked to a disclosure form that confirms Donald Trump purchased up to $1 million in Nvidia stock this year — mere days before the company was granted permission to sell advanced computer chips to China.
Beyer’s reaction is part of the discourse that swelled this week following President Donald Trump’s visit to China with a herd of tech CEOs in tow, including Nvidia’s Jensen Huang.
On Thursday, the U.S. Office of Government Ethics released a filing showing thousands of individual stock purchases by Donald Trump during the first quarter of 2026, prompting Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) to sound the alarm on social media, especially about Nvidia.
