I give people very little political advice, but I will volunteer one thing: If you want to affect election outcomes, don’t bother donating to presidential general-election campaigns. Whether you’re a small donor or you max out or even if you have your own SuperPAC, the logic is the same. Money makes the least difference in these elections, and candidates have way more than they need.
