>>As I said, if this were some kind of payoff, all he had to do was hand her the money.
>>People like her will take it any form.

No, in the US politicians will not take it "in any form"
Taking a bag full of money is just risky in the US
That may work in places like the Philippines, but our politicians at least need the mud rinsed off their dirty money first.

They know that idiots who take direct cash will get caught.
Like William J Jefferson, who was found with $90,000 in cash in his freezer, with serial numbers that traced back to the FBI.

You don't believe Hillary's cattle futures thing was dirty money with a quick rinse?
