It was revealed that Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), the bankrupt former CEO of the cryptocurrency exchange FTX, was considering paying $ 5 billion to US President Donald Trump so that he would not run for president again. SBF believed that Trump was a threat to democracy. 🚨📚

SBF, in collaboration with US Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, planned to donate millions of dollars to Republican candidates opposing Trump. SBF was considering donating more in the 2024 US elections. 💰🗳️

However, while FTX went bankrupt, it was not possible for SBF to realize this plan. SBF will begin his trial on October 3 from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.
