      Did you give McDonald’s money in exchange for a burger? You’re guilty of quid pro quo.

      Words have meaning, and quid pro quo is not inherently illegal.

        Uhh i’m obviously talking about in the context of politics. I know you think you said something smart but you didn’t.

          And it still doesn’t matter. No matter if you or I think it should be otherwise, bribery laws are quite narrow in this country.

        What kind of nonsense pedantry is this? Do you not think it’s wrong to do political favors for those who help out your sons business dealings?

          Where is the proof? Been years now, and I’ve seen nothing but Hunter hanging dong.

          The fact that you’re still here arguing the talking points kind of detracts from the whole, “I’m just a normal guy asking questions” bit. If that were at all true, any number of the correct answers provided to you would be more than enough. Yet here you still are, just coincidentally using right wing talking points word for word.
