Record-Breaking Donations to Trump Inaugural Fund Spark Outrage
Donald Trump’s second inaugural fund is projected to surpass the previous record of $107 million, with donations already exceeding $150 million. Major corporations, including Amazon, Meta, and numerous automotive companies, are contributing substantial sums, reportedly reaching $1 million each. These donations, unrestricted by campaign finance laws, are driven by a desire to gain favor with the incoming administration and avoid potential repercussions. The fundraising serves not only as a financial boost but also as a symbolic show of loyalty, with high-level donors receiving exclusive access to pre-inauguration events.
