    That is unfortunate. Absolute red meat for both-sides-are-bad politics.

    Only if you really want it to be.

    The real reason was because the law was specifically tailored for fast food, so to protect bakeries and other places it had the clause about the bread.

    The law defines what a fast-food restaurant is, and says it is not an establishment that “operates a bakery that produces for sale on the establishment’s premises bread."

    The donor was just confused if that meant him, ultimately he decided it probably did but that he’d pay them anyways.

    But yeah this is totally the same thing as trump being friendly with Russia.

      I like how Trump being so brazenly criminal has made it so we act like any other corruption just isn’t so bad and thus should be ignored.

      And by “like” I mean it makes me want to fucking kill myself it’s so god damned stupid.

        OK so now there’s corruption in checks notes, trying to obey the letter of the law. Interesting.

          What proof do I have of this other than words you shat out onto a page? Maybe you’d have more people buying your version of the story if you bothered to produce even a shred of a link of evidence.

          I’m supposed to just take the words of a random internet commenter at face value?
