How much are we talking about as a donation?

Was it $20 for a campaign bumper sticker (who cares?)

...or $1 million over market price for Trump Tower condos numerous times (what actually happened)?

OW2 - The point was humor.

Given that there’s a law against it, I would prefer that people not break that law.

At the same time, my moral sense of harm isn’t really engaged by the idea of a US resident donating to a cause they believe in. Where it is engaged is when foreign state actors, or coordinated networks of foreign individuals, seek to sway US elections or corruptly influence US officials in a direction that serves those foreign interests rather than US interests.

more donations, even if they are from non-citizens who genuinely support dem’s agenda? Just a hypothetical and curious question.
Disclaimer: law prohibits such activity. But with political ads all over the place, it just got me curious.

OW, 14mm, but who is counting. The population size is irrelevant. It takes is one big money donor.

OP - How I feel about a foreigner donating is different then if it is meddling. Meddling involves inferring with something that isn’t someone’s concern. If a foreigner donated $20 to a campaign it isn’t meddling. It is illegal but not meddling per se. However, as it is illegal whether it is $1, $20 or a large sum it shouldn’t happen; whether Donkey or Elephant doesn’t matter.

Not necessarily related but isn't it possible that Russians vote at the poles without ID in places where ID isn't required.

Does the risk of other people voting outweigh the need for people to vote that don't have IDs and are us citizens.

“ID”. Where I am, ID can be a utility bill. That’s all you need to register at an address.

No.

No to which question?
