US business leaders set to break record on donations to Trump inaugural fund

Summary

Donald Trump’s second inaugural fund is set to exceed $150 million, breaking the $107 million record from 2017.

Major companies like Amazon, Meta, Toyota, and Ford, along with executives like Sam Altman and Ken Griffin, are donating $1 million each.

Experts note the contributions aim to curry favor or avoid backlash from the incoming administration.

Some firms, despite earlier pledges to suspend political donations after the January 6 Capitol riot, are now participating.
