ELI5: If the max amount of money an individual or corporation can donate to a politician is $2700, how can the Koch brothers and other millionares donate millions of dollars to the candidate of their choosing? Wasn't the $2700 rule put in place specifically so that politicians couldn't be bought?

Yes. They don't donate directly to the campaign in those amounts, though: they donate to the parties and to political action committees (so-called "Super PACs" in particular), which have higher limits or no such limit.
