superdonor

Massive political contributor

A superdonor is someone who gives exceptionally large amounts of money to political campaigns, charities, or other causes.

The term emerged in American politics after court decisions loosened campaign finance restrictions, enabling wealthy individuals to contribute millions: Superdonors have outsized influence on elections.

The super- prefix emphasizes scale rather than any special powers.
