Breaking with past practice, President-elect Donald J. Trump has not agreed to disclose the donors paying for his planning effort or to limit their contributions.

Just in general, why is the transition funded by private donors at all? No matter who takes the office, it's a necessary part of running the government, and should be handled by public money. Having private money do it is always an opening for corruption.

That's how it's supposed to work, but it's predicated on the incoming administration doing certain things, like signing ethics documents. Trump's team is refusing to do this.
