Trump’s Inauguration: Companies Scramble for Favor, President-Elect Keeps Tabs on Donations
Donald Trump’s inaugural committee is projected to surpass previous fundraising records, potentially exceeding $150 million. This fundraising includes significant contributions from corporations that previously condemned the January 6th insurrection. These donations appear transactional, with Trump reportedly inquiring about specific corporate contributions and implying repercussions for non-donors. The committee, organized as a non-profit, offers various perks to high-dollar donors, including exclusive events and access to Trump and his administration. While donors remain undisclosed for some time, the influx of corporate money signals a strategic effort to secure favor with the incoming administration.
