Bribery: Corrupt solicitation, acceptance, transfer of value in exchange for OFFICIAL action.

The crime Trump committed is bribery, not extortion. Extortion is what the mob does. Give us money or we will kill your family.
Bribery involves people in government.

There has to be a quid pro quo for bribery to happen. We have that. The news media and Democrats should stop calling it quid pro quo and start calling it bribery.

Solicitation is the key word when it comes to Trump. It was the attempt of bribery and the attempt is a crime.
