Donald Trump's upcoming inauguration is set to break fundraising records, with estimates indicating that over $250 million has been raised from corporations and billionaires. This amount marks a substantial increase compared to previous inaugurations, with some reports suggesting that the final total could reach as high as $310 million. Major companies, including those that have previously criticized Trump, are reportedly contributing to the event. The funds will primarily cover the costs of the inauguration and related events, which are not financed by taxpayer money. The high level of corporate interest has made tickets for the official inauguration events highly sought after.
