I am remiss in my duties. I never made any contributions to the Clinton foundation.
I never bought carbon credits with Al Gore either. My bad.

Donors were not stupid. They were effectively buy favors and/or protection if needed. Just imagine what the expected returns from those large donations to the Clinton Foundation were? At least several times more than the original contribution. For the “donors” it was a very good investment.
