That’s cute, but the point is that despite Hilary’s very broad appeal to the big dollar doners, she was beaten by Obama in 2008 due to his, at the time very novel, online small dollar fundraising campaign. She was again defeated in 2016, despite having far more money given to her campaign than Trump.

So the idea that the big doners actually dictate election results does not match our recent historical realities at all.
