So much has been said about this guy as he was playing some 5-D chess with Govt. , CIA, NSA, Wall Street and Silicon Valley.

In reality he was just trying to make money by doing as little real work he possibly could and his preferred tactic was to either become a provider of vices for people richer than him or failing that investigate a billionaire life in order to uncover something and use it as a blackmail weapon.

And all the stuff that emerged up to now indicate that he managed to get in the proximity but never quite made it to the big leagues or score a big blackmail payment.

Because at the end of the day billionaires are not politicians, they don't care about their reputation and they never did.

So maybe only Bill Clinton paid him some millions.
