This is definitely a non-partisan issue of politicians straight up trying to trick people into donating more than they intend.

- sokoloff 5y agoI think the 1-click donations should also be banned. I recall getting a solicitation from one of the two major parties with a “click here to support Foo” button in the email. Fine print at the bottom revealed that if you had a payment method on file that click would, without further action, donate some set amount to candidate Foo. (I don’t recall the details of the amount.) I’m fine with fundraising, but “click here to support” I expect to land me on a web page where I could read more and make a fully informed decision to donate, not to take money out of my account from the email click.
