That's because for the first time in many many years they don't know who to buy yet.

Bingo, someone who gets it. These mega donors couldn't care less about a politician's party affiliation. Ideology is irrelevant. They are interested in only one thing - access and influence. Their money always goes to the candidate they think most likely to win, and that is their only criteria.

This is one of the unsung major advantages of DJT - he doesn't need their money, so they can't buy either access or influence the traditional way with campaign donations. Whatever it is they want - cheap labor through open immigration, judicial appointments favorable to their industry, even punishing regulations levied against their competitors (Obama's specialty) - will now have to be argued on it's own merits in order to convince Trump to act on it.

Brings to mind one of the great mysteries of this campaign.

How is it that eliminating the big money fixers in politics can be accomplished by electing one of them?
