I think SBF was fairly unique in caring about this, and his empire collapsed before he did anything like this in that election. When I said “undervalue”, I wasn’t referring to SBF, given he hasn’t been active in this time. (Obvious flag that while I might have sympathized with some of SBF’s positions, I very much disagree with many of his illegal and fraudulent actions)
Looking back though, paying $5B for Trump to definitely not run/win seems like a great deal to me, though the act of paying him raises a lot of qualms I’d be uncomfortable with.
SBF was willing to bribe Trump w $5bi so he wouldn’t run in 2024. That’s not what I’d call “undervalue”.
