Since his point was not to describe an actual situation and he was just riffing during a rally, it doesn't matter one way or the other.

Which Presidents didn't riff about illegal actions at their political rallies, amirite?

He wasn't riffing about illegal actions. He was talking about his ability to fund raise. You are the one who decided it was illegal.

He was describing bribes. (Permits for contributions)

The distinction between lobbying and bribing can sometimes be nuanced. Not in this case though.

You do realize you are making the same point that Trump was making, right?

LOL, I remember one time when Biden was bragging at a rally about getting a prosecutor fired for investigating his son in Ukraine. Good times...

Trump's point was that he can get lots of campaign contributions through bribes... but he won't go there... but he could.... but he won't...

I was wrong. It's not stubbornness. It's pure stupidity.

Damn. You can't be this fucking stupid, so it has to be just stubbornness.

[xenon]

See how useless comments like that are?

[Larry]

Then you tell me why you keep making the same stupid argument over and over.

[xenon]

I've made a point and explained why I see things that way.

Your contribution was "no it's not!"

[Doctor Phibes]

So, it has come to this.

[Larry]

No, that wasn't my contribution. I gave you another way of looking at it, and you responded by restating the same error you'd stated already, just reworded.
