How could being the second and third largest donor to Dems/Reps respectively at the same time be a good strategy? Genuinely curious.

The point of political donations (at this scale) is not to get your preferred candidate elected. It is to get leverage with the candidate who ends up getting elected.
It's twice as many people you can call up and say "remember when I gave a bunch of money to your PAC?"
