If we are to speculate, what happens to Thiel's social reputation now (regardless of whether the allegation is true or not)? Do people stop talking to him in fear of saying something bad? Do his old friends stop contact because of what he might have told FBI? Does he stop getting invited to parties? Or will all of this blow over in a couple weeks and it's business as usual? My thinking is that his social life will change quite a bit (even accounting for him being a billionaire) and he is done with politics. I don't think any politician will want to involve themselves with Thiel now.
