According to a new book by journalist Michael Lewis, disgraced and indicted former crypto entrepreneur Sam Bankman-Fried at one point put out a feeler to disgraced and indicted former President Trump to name his price for a bribe to stay out of the 2024 election – to which Donald’s minions came back with $5 billion. The back-and-forth kept going right up until FTX imploded in November 2022 and Bankman-Fried became Bankrupt-Fried, per Lewis.
