Trump refused to the sign the transition document that would have required him to disclose those donors. Some of them have been told they will not be getting VIP access to various events which are already fully booked up with sycophants. The NYT reports that money left over will go towards the Trump Presidential Library. This reminds me of Gore Vidal telling a joke about the Reagan library. He said that sadly it had been burnt to the ground and both books had been destroyed. Even more regrettably, the president hadn't finished colouring them in. I cannot imagine what books would be allowed in the Trump library (apart from 'The Art of the Deal' and his knock-off bible).
I doubt George Soros would have made any contribution to the Trump inauguration and to call this 94-year-old philanhropist a "Musk wanna-be" is way off the mark. Indeed, after Biden awarded Soros the Presidential Medal of Freedom, Musk joined the MAGA chorus deploring this decision and Musk accused him of "fundamentally hating humanity". In the past, Musk has likened him to Magneto, a Marvel jewish supervillain an antisemitic trope if there ever was one. Emily Tamkin at Slate describes this as classic projection with the pathetic Musk imagining himself as doing all the good works that Soros has actually accomplished through his Open Society Foundations.
I take it one thinks that is an amount 'known', not an actual amount (over the table, not under the table)? A loose least lower bound?
Lying about bribes one has received may take a wee bit of life-long education and finesse, but hey, as one becomes senile, that's what bitcoin is for.

2 billion dollars ring a bell? 80 billionaires and one George Soros. A Musk wanna be.
