That’s true but it’s more than fair to say that SBF was powerful. He wasn’t donating to the GOP and Dems for shits and giggles, yaknow?

If he was powerful he would have been able to skip out on consequences. That’s what power makes possible. Simply donating to politicians is nowhere near enough. You need to have connections, leverage, relationships, etc.
