MSNBC guest: No money changed hands so no bribery, Hunter Biden blah blah blah [View all]

I forget the name of this CPAC guest, but it seems like the defense has now shifted to "this was ATTEMPTED bribery, so no big deal" and of course throwing in Hunter Biden to muddy the waters.

I'll try to get the guest's name, give me a few minutes.

eta: Guest was Matt Slapp.
