The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

Before being exposed as one of this generation's most unscrupulous frauds, Sam Bankman-Fried was one of the Democratic Party's largest donors and we now know he even considered donating to Republicans to stop Donald Trump and his America First agenda. The wealthy and powerful tried to bribe him and then went after him with sham indictments — no matter how you slice it, the establishment wants Trump out of the way.

Anti-Trump narrative

Sam Bankman-Fried ironically tried to put stolen money to good use by trying to bribe Trump from running for president again. Trump has proven extremely selfish and materialistic, so there's little doubt that he would have accepted a deal if a legitimate offer materialized. Unfortunately, FTX collapsed, and America is stuck with Trump's constant meddling in politics for the time being.
