I don't think people who give or take bribes usually like having a permanent history of the transaction.

Which is why they take the bribe in monero

Workarounds for the shortcomings certainly make bribes possible with crypto but not exactly easier than with traditional currencies.

Why would they care? Perfectly legal in the US. And consumers/citizens obviously don't care either.

Big incentive to keep trump in power if your bribery of him is public record. Someone else might do something about it
