Companies have spent about $80 million on projects benefitting the Trump family and the Trump presidential library since his return to the White House, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The staggering amount shows how much financial power the Trump name brings. The $80 million comes from various areas including donations and lawsuit settlements. The money will add to the Trumps' fortune and help cover costs such as his presidential library.
After President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump joined Amazon founder Jeff Bezos for dinner at Mar-a-Lago in December, Amazon spent $40 million on a documentary series the first lady pitched during the dinner. It was the most Amazon had ever spent on a documentary -- the second-highest offer came from Disney, who offered $14 million. Netflix and Apple didn't bid on the film.
