Just $382K.

May Dad always said he wasn’t surprised politicians could be bribed, he was surprised how little money was needed to bribe them.

My grandfather used to bribe politicians with suitcases full of cash—he said they were like plants and needed constant watering...

Umm, this is the public figure. Real crooks always publish this sort of crappola and then when asked about bribes (hint: Clinton Foundation, Ukraine, etc) can say: “Oh, that? We accounted for that. Next question.”

The guy with a shred of honesty left hems and haws and “looks into it”. Usually returns it.
