Quid pro quo to create an political outcome is generally illegal bribery. That being noted, then of course the White House will not acknowledge that quid pro quo: Was in place in the conditional aid to Ukraine phone call. The course has been taken to embrace the Act, and Deny the Concept.
Then to compare, Trump's White House than suggested that China should investigate former Vice President Biden. Nothing was offered, and nothing received. So no quid pro quo charge could be raised, only depending on what is happening in the Trade Talks. Many will note that China has no pertinent interest in launching a Communist Party inquiry into details of anything Joe Biden ever did with respect to China, Their economy is slowing, for one thing.
So the China request can be said a compare and contrast.
Can Proportionality Distinguish Quid Pro Quo Corruption?
The compare and contrast points to the Trump White House offering the security bribe to the new Ukranian President.
"Crow, James Crow: Shaken, Not Stirred."
(Mainly White Eyes just stole Lands of Many Nations--doing nothing so corrupt as a bribe(?)!)
