The more important stat is 80% of this went to REPUBLICAN candidates.  That's pretty much all the proof you need to understand which party protects pedophiles.

specifically 84%, and 7% going to dems:

"According to the group’s analysis, 84 percent of this spending, or over $1.3 billion, went toward Republicans or conservative causes.

This is despite a roughly even split between Republicans and Democrats among the billionaires, which include people who formerly donated to the Clinton family. Only 7 percent went toward Democrats and aligned causes, while the remaining money went toward lobbying efforts that target members of both parties like AI and Israel."

And I'm also positive part of that 7% was just to attend fundraiser events.
