Donations to the White House ballroom Copy link
A confidential fundraising spreadsheet reviewed by The Washington Post lists $333 million in donations of $10,000 or more to his White House ballroom project. Apple, Nvidia, the Adelson family and Charles Ergen gave $25 million each. Companies or executives with federal contracts gave about half; the Post does not tie the gifts to any government action.
