US Government's (presumed) Mafia Business Model

👉 Friends get to make big money from tariff manipulated stock trading and pay for insider info.
👉 Corporation and countries get exempt from tariffs, if they pay bribes.
👉 The autocracy will accumulate a "wealth fund" to cement its power.

How likely?
