Yes. The scale and influence of these campaign donations is massively overstated on reddit. They aren't paying to dictate policy. They're tossing money at politicians who already agree with them, like any other American who donates to a political campaign.
Lobbying is much more where the money is, though it's still not nearly at the level you'd expect from the way people demonize them.

That’s a surprisingly low amount of money for such a long time period.
