Donald Trump's upcoming inauguration is set to break fundraising records, with the Trump-Vance committee aiming to raise up to $250 million, surpassing the $107 million collected during his 2017 inauguration. The funds are being contributed by a mix of corporations and billionaires, including tech giants like Apple, Chevron, Citigroup, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Google, Pfizer, Microsoft, and the pharmaceutical lobby. Notable attendees at the event will include the world's richest individuals such as Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk. The donations are expected to finance a series of events around the inauguration, including parades, meetings, and inaugural balls. The influx of large donations has raised concerns about the potential for these contributors to buy influence within the new administration.
