Trump Has Made Legal Experts Of Us All

GA Senator says Trump did nothing wrong when he told Raffensperger to “find” 11,780 votes because there was no express quid pro quo: “He didn’t say, I will appoint you to something or give you a membership to one of my clubs.” pic.twitter.com/FhhFfmmz8S

(This isn't even close to a criminal defense. This is like saying I went into the bank, told the teller to give me all the money, forgot my gun, and ran out of the bank. I'm still a bank robber. "Quid pro quo" doesn't even enter into it.  Trump was not negotiating a contract.  Or the Senator has confused this with a bribery charge; which it isn't.)
