and certainly did not claim to have seen one.

There's probably a GoFundMe account already set up to cover everything Chauvin requires.

I asked the poster a question. A question is not a statement. lapucelle May 2020 #36
Your question was based on assumption that wasn't true. Drunken Irishman May 2020 #37

It put lie to your claim about the probability of a GoFundMe page for Chauvin. lapucelle May 2020 #42
You're engaging in "sealioning," a specific form of trolling. sop May 2020 #44
