In all fairness, I was thinking mostly of European politicians and added the Americans there for completeness.
I suspect that in America the politicians are mainly just bought (via, for example AIPAC campaign contributions) and any blackmailing that’s needed is done by using the recordings made by a Mr J. Epstein.
