New York – Trump To Attend 1st Post-election Fundraiser

New York – The presidential election may be over, but the money hunt continues.

President-elect Donald Trump is set to attend what would be his first post-election fundraiser on Dec. 7 in New York City. It’s a $5,000-per-person breakfast to benefit his transition effort. More than 60 people are listed as hosts for the event, according to the invitation, obtained by The Associated Press.

Although the federal government — through taxpayer money — covers at least $6 million in transition costs, incoming presidents typically supplement that with outside fundraising. To maintain access to the federal money, the president-elect cannot accept more than $5,000 per individual donor.

Separately, Trump is also raising money to pay for multimillion-dollar inauguration festivities in January.
