Bribe - persuade (someone) to act in one's favor, typically illegally or dishonestly, by a gift of money or other inducement.

So if Trump said "Hey if you investigate Biden I'll give you this military aide, otherwise I wont do it", does that fit the definition? Pretty sure it does. Assuming he actually did that. Which seems likely.

They can't every decide what a gender is but they sure as hell know what a bride is.

And Trump did it. Even though he didn't. But Biden and Obama definitely did not do it. Even though they did.

That is a lie.

You need to try harder.

Unfortunately most of the leftist regulars haven't done shite with this so your shite is all there is to laugh at.

Sounds like the exact definition to me.

According to Ukraine, no Biden investigation was asked for, and they didn’t know aid was even being held a month after the call, so factually there was no bribe....

This never happened, so your point is moot.

Next.

Then every foreign aid transaction is a “bribe”

This is such a childish endeavor

I thought bribery was holding something over on some one. Not for giving some one something.

Ok.

Now point out where Trump did that.

Word for word. Not your “interpretation”. Point it out.

A bribe would be asking them to make up shite for political gain in exchange for goods.

Asking a country to investigate credible reports of corruption isn't bribery and it isn't illegal.

The democrats are trying to impeach a president because he dared to investigate corruption. And they are trying to impeach him for the offense biden committed.

Dwell on that.

Laughing, that never happened. Joe Biden broke the law by preventing an investigation of his son's role for Burisma.

He directly interfered in said investigation, shutting it down. Either you fire this man, or you get no money. That's called extortion.
