Donald Trump is going to return to the White House in style, after having secured a massive win in the US Presidential elections 2024, by beating Kamala Harris. A gala inauguration ceremony at the US Capitol, Washington DC has been arranged for the President-elect's swearing-in, after which he will be taking over the reigns of Presidency from Joe Biden.

Billionaires and their companies line up to donate for Trump

The likes of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and many others have donated in millions for this gala inauguration ceremony, with many other companies waiting in line to bring in funds for this prestigious event. But, the question arises: Why this sudden pandemonium regarding donating towards Trump's ceremony?

Are companies expecting relaxations from the Trump administration?

Reports suggest that it could be because the companies are hoping for a business-friendly behavior from the Trump administration, and executive powers are not used to cripple any company. Trump, on numerous occasion before becoming the President-elect has threated top companies with different statements on what he would do if he comes to power, and when that has become a reality, companies may be fearing what's going to happen next.


These donations are majorly being seen as a gesture and effort by companies to keep Trump appeased. A Rolling Stone report also suggests that his people may be keeping a close track on who is spending what on the inauguration ceremony, in order to monitor the chunk of cash flowing in for this prestigious event.
