The Donate button does not work on this page

What happened?
The Donate button is shown on this page, but when clicked, it does not work. (It just jumps to the top of the current page, due to the # URL.)
What did you expect to happen?
I expected clicking on the button would go directly to a donation website, such as Patreon, Liberapay, OpenCollective or PayPal.
What the problem might be
It looks like the JavaScript for that button has not been loaded.
Possible solution
You could put the link to the external website directly on the button, perhaps with target="_blank", so it will work even if the JavaScript is not loaded.
Why is this important
Because the site's footer often appears below the fold, this might be the first time the user notices that button.
I don't know on which other pages this same issue may occur.

It's working for me... however I don't get the same 400 page you have posted... because of that I will need to know your exact steps to reproduce i.e. exactly where you start and all clicks until you reach it including starting url. EDIT Please include your browser with version too and what platform (Windows, Linux, macOS, etc.)
Ref (Sorry about the poor capture quality... that's an issue to be remedied at some point):
Retried with importing a known script on my GH repo Δ and shows the equivalent to your 400 page... however the "Donate" button still works.
Cannot reproduce it today. It must have just been a temporary issue. Sorry!
