1. Transparency:

The government must keep the relationship between corporate donations and policy decisions transparent, so that the public knows who is being influenced, where, and how much.

2. Independent Ethics Committees:

It is important to have an independent body that monitors and analyzes donations and policy decisions.

3. Strict Regulations:

Campaign finance reform and lobbying laws must be strengthened, so that the undue influence of big donors can be stopped.

Conclusion

Donald Trump’s record breaking donations on one hand reflect his leadership and global connections, but on the other hand it also poses a challenge to US democracy. If corporate donations are misused, it will impact public trust and policy integrity. Trump will have to take his future steps with transparency and ethics during his tenure, so that his administration does not get tainted with corruption and the public’s interests can be put first.
