Earlier this month, President Donald Trump disclosed that his trust is actively trading individual stocks, an unprecedented practice for a sitting U.S. president in the modern era.

The arrangement is raising new questions about whether the president's actions, policies, or public statements could directly benefit his personal financial holdings.

Our White House correspondent, Liz Land Landers takes the closer look.

It'd be hard to find a president in recent history who has spoken publicly about the stock

market more than Donald Trump.

I just turned on the television and wanted to see how the stock market's doing today.

You know, we hit 50,000 on the Dow.

We had 7,000 on the S&P. Our stock market is now

It doesn't list specific amounts, only broad value ranges, and it's

The key question here is, are those holdings impacting the decisions that he's making?

And what's tricky about this, like so many other things, is that in order to answer that question,

you really have to get inside Donald Trump's head.
