This could be a new record in speculation and "sources say".

 | Even seasoned practitioners of Washington pay-to-play have
 | been startled by the new rules for buying influence. In
 | December, a seat at a group dinner at Mar-a-Lago could be
 | had for a million-dollar contribution to MAGA Inc., a super
 | PAC that serves as a war chest for the midterms. More
 | recently, one-on-one conversations with the President have
 | become available for five million. The return on investment
 | is uncertain, a government-affairs executive told me: "What
 | if he's in a bad mood? You have no clue where the money is
 | eventually going." Another lobbying veteran described the
 | frank exchange as "outer-borough Mafia shit."

 | Trump has sold influence so briskly that the political
 | machinery cannot keep up. After he was offered a
 | four-hundred-million-dollar gift from the government of
 | Qatar--an airplane so opulent that it was dubbed the
 | "palace in the sky"--Dan Pfeiffer, a former White House
 | communications director, called it "the most brazenly
 | corrupt move by any President in U.S. history, and it's not
 | close." Less than a day later, a crypto venture owned by
 | the Trump family auctioned off a dinner with the President
 | at one of his golf clubs. The family profited from the
 | crypto auction twice over: from fees, which have so far
 | netted them and their partners three hundred and twenty
 | million dollars, and from their own stash of Trump-branded
 | coins, which had grown in value to $4.1 billion even before
 | the auction was complete.
