Donald Trump inauguration: how do donations to the inaugural fund work?

What to know about Trump's inauguration committee - from what rules are in place to how much it has raised

Donald Trump's inauguration committee has raised a record $170m for the bonanza of balls, receptions, parades, dinners and related events that will surround his swearing in as president on Monday.

The financial takings - which, with money reportedly still coming in, could reach $200m by inauguration day - outstrips the $106m raised for the returning president's first inaugural in 2017, itself a record at the time. It also far exceeds the $65m donated to Joe Biden's inauguration four years ago.
