This quote is referring to the large corporate donations that funded Donald Trump’s inauguration events in 2017. Craig Holman, a government affairs lobbyist, is arguing that these donations represented a “loophole” through which big business interests could curry political favor with the new administration by making large contributions. He suggests that inaugurations have become a way for corporate donors to essentially “buy” access and influence.

The quote calls for stronger regulations around spending for presidential inaugurations, as well as full transparency regarding donors. Holman believes these changes are necessary to curb the potential for pay-to-play politics and corruption that results from wealthy special interests being able to anonymously funnel large sums to new administrations via inaugural funding.
