Seriously? Do you seriously not get it?

It's quite clear. How someone whose only qualification for a 600,000 a year job from an oil and gas company in a country KNOWN for corruption, seems to be that his father is VP.

The potential quid-pro-quo is obvious to anyone not blinded by political affiliation.,.. and since the CRIME would be committed in Ukraine, it is not under our jurisdiction or ability to subpoena or anything. New Sheriff in town... go see if your people tried to BUY American influence.

I'd flip it around and say you don't get it. I do get why it was unethical. I do get why there was a conflict of interest. But again, there doesn't appear to be a dead body - just a fired gun.

You're 100% right that there was a potential for a quid-pro-quo, and I feel like I have been very clear that I agree with this (even though you keep trying to paint it as if I disagree with that point).

The issue is that there doesn't appear to be a quo - what favorable thing did Ukraine get from Biden or the Obama administration that could have been tied to the hiring?

Do you know what the quo was?
