because if it was just about boxing them in, you don t have to have what he calls a negotiation around what the actual language is. and just one small but i think important legal point here. prosecutors can try can charge bribery and extortion. you know, this idea that somehow it s either bribery or it s extortion and, therefore, democrats just keep hopping all over the place. both same time, same acts, happens all the time. and just two points here as we re waiting cooper and hale, which will be a whole new round of testimony. one, to maya and the lack of credibility that trump was explicitly and only interested in domestic ukrainian corruption, he had publicly attacked the foreign corrupt practices act, which goes after foreign bribery. he said it was a horrible law tha that should be changed. that was in 2012 on cnbc. donald trump sometimes plays a more naive person than he actually is when it comes to hiding your tracks.
