You’re not paying the 10K for the photo, it’s for the access you hope it buys if they win.

10k prob gets you a lot from a city council member, a bit from a state senator, your name remembered by a US congress member, and absolutely nothing from US senator or above.

Eh, genuinely some of it is people who are inclined to donate anyway but just want to feel more important. Especially at the senator or presidential level they've got people who can funnel much more their way

Its like a museum hosting a special reception for donors. Those donors are gonna be donating, they support the museum and its mission, but they want to feel good and important about doing it
