Meanwhile, this is actually happening: Trump is rolling back anti-bribery regulations, arguing that our inability to bribe other countries is unfairly disadvantaging US business interests.

"President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order rolling back enforcement of a law that makes it illegal for US companies to bribe foreign officials, arguing that the restriction puts American firms at a disadvantage.

Trump is ordering Attorney General Pam Bondi to pause actions taken under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act until she issues new enforcement guidelines, according to a fact sheet on the executive order, a copy of which was seen by Bloomberg News. All current and past actions will also be reviewed."
