“I call some guy, the head of Exxon. I call the head of Exxon. I don’t know. How are you doing? How’s energy coming? When are you doing the exploration? Oh, you need a couple of permits? When I call the head of Exxon I say, ‘You know, I’d love for you to send me $25 million for the campaign.’ ‘Absolutely sir.’”
BUT WAIT – I spot the tell-tale “sir”!
Everything that comes out of our addled Aderall’ed pznint’s mouth must be fact checked, including “the,” “um,” “durrrr,” and the occasional nugget of crystal meth (only guessing, of course).

Political Wire referred to this hypothetical as a “shakedown”. Quid Pro Quo sounds so nice, shakedown catches the flavor better.

Extortion
noun
1. an act or instance of extorting.
2. Law. the crime of obtaining money or some other thing of value by the abuse of one’s office or authority.
Admitting to committing a non-existent illegal act just makes him more of a doofus.

It’s evidence of his character.
Admitting to a crime he he did not commit just means he didn’t have the opportunity, allegedly. If there is money to be got, he always has the motive.

The DOJ is in Federal Court as we speak trying to make the argument that when LDN says he did something in a tweet, he didn’t really mean it and it’s not an official Presidumbfucktual Order

DOJ Lawyer “Your honor, I would like to invoke the long-established precedent of ‘His lips are moving’ in requesting that you rule in our favor”

Right up there with reporting your dealer to the cops for selling you bad meth.

Oh, please make the argument stick. That would mean that @Jack has no more excuse to let his garbage tweets stand as “official communications from the government” or whatever bs he called it.

Last I heard, Sheldon Adelson had cut him off, and Trump was really pissed. Yesterday, news accounts said that Sheldon Adelson had just given the Trump Campaign $75 MILLION dollars. There’s gotta be a quid pro quo here, and it’s only a matter of time before the details become public.

Of course, Exxon did not say whether or not some other guy, maybe one whose name rhymes with Shmared Smushner did have a call like that.
