Well, TBH, the practice of giving out ambassadorships - normally to peaceful, out-of-the-way countries - as a “reward” to deep-pocket political donors is neither new nor different: it’s been that way as long as I can remember; and generally, un-remarked-on. The main difference here seems to be that the grubby detail of the monetary haggling have been made public: welcome to the Information Age….
