President-elect Trump's inaugural committee has raised the most money ever for a commander in chief's inauguration festivities. Trump's team pulled in $90 million for next week's events in Washington, D.C.
President Obama raised $55 million in 2009 and $43 million in 2013.
Trump's team listed $1 million from Boeing and $500,000 from Chevron - the first of whom is talking with Trump about the cost of a new Air Force One following angry tweets from Trump about the high cost. The inauguration committee must disclose all donors within 90 days of the Jan. 20 ceremony.
One million people are expected to visit D.C. for the festivities, including 200,000 protesters for the Women's March. Obama saw 1.8 million people come to town for his 2009 inauguration.
