Aside from not showing up (see previous post), Trump's 2016 transition team was funded by an organization that's in legal trouble. Is there any entity connected to Trump that isn't?
Trump for America, Inc., a New Jersey-based organization that raised millions of dollars to support Donald Trump's 2016 presidential transition, will cease to exist and pay a fine after it allegedly failed to register as a charitable organization and later didn't comply with a subpoena, according to the state's attorney general's office.

Trump for America, Inc. agreed to pay a $30,000 civil penalty, but $27,500 of the penalty would be suspended, meaning that amount will be waived if the organization complies with all of the terms of the agreement after a year.
The entity will also cease to exist, according to Grewal's office.
Trump for America, Inc. is registered in New Jersey as a 501(c)4 social welfare organization, and was originally called the Trump Transition Project when it was incorporated in New Jersey in June 2016, where it raised "significant" contributions from residents to help finance and assist Trump in the presidential transition process.

How is that social welfare?
The New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs subpoenaed Trump for America, Inc. in February 2019 after determining it hadn't registered as a charitable organization, and the attorney general later sued to try to enforce the subpoena.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
