There are a dozen better ways than Crypto to bribe politicians.


A Boeing. Straight cash. Naming anirports or other public spaces. The aforementioned shitcoin. What are the others?


Vanity movie productions for family members. Real estate deals in various places, if necessary you first bulldoze them with the local military.


There's a new one - let the president sue you and then settle for tens/hundreds of millions without a fight.


Boeing has an enormous number of subcontractors. If boeing gets orders they'll make sure the subcontractors are in your district.


Not sure what that has to do with the Qatari bribe.


It's another example of a way to bribe politicians. What's the issue?


I thought he was trying to say the Qatari bribe wasn't a bribe because Boeing will have to service the jet or something like that. If it was a completely separate case of bribery, it makes sense - although it strikes me quite a bit different than a payment directly to the politician (vs a promise to the constituents of the district).


A rival UN with $1B entry fee.


donations to an inauguration fund.


or a presidential library!


Teen girls.


I think they prefer trafficked underage women, which is all fun and games for the suppliers until they get suicided at the MCC.
