How much would you sell someone out for?

that depends if that person is normal and sane. For instance I would give away both trump and putin for free. Hell, I would even scrape together a bit of money for someone to take them away from news(and their offices). The problem is that I could not pay enough for their removal from politics. So we will likely have to wait and suffer a few more years at least. Maybe at that point they will be physically no longer able to lead a country...

Edit. Do you think that trump would be happy if he was sold for 30 pieces of silver? Considering the whole pretending to be jesus thing?

Sort:  

Reminds me of a joke that was probably making the rounds on early e-mails and bulletin boards long before social media.


A driver was stuck in a traffic jam on the highway outside Washington, DC. Nothing was moving. Suddenly, a man knocks on the window.

The driver rolls it down and asks, “What’s going on?”

“Terrorists have kidnapped the entire US Congress, and they’re asking for a $100 million dollar ransom. Otherwise, they are going to douse them all in gasoline and set them on fire. We are going from car to car, collecting donations.”

“How much is everyone giving, on an average?” the driver asks.

The man replies, “Roughly a gallon.”


Edit: if those 30 pieces of silver were American Eagle 1 oz. bullion coins, it would be around $2300 at today's prices and premiums.

I think they would both choose to go out with a bang. Especially Putin, who would be happy if his legacy was nuclear war.

At the time, it was about 4 months average salary.
