For instance, if I pay someone for sex, that is illegal. But if I pay someone to make a pornographic movie with me, where we have sex, that is not illegal.

Again, these little details are what makes the average hard working American just say “the hell with the system”. Can you blame them?
You wanted to know how he broke the law. I wrote it out as plainly as possible for you. Its pretty black-and-white. And while it is a pretty petty while-collar crime, the reason we're seeing it first is because its so simple and blatantly illegal with a very visible paper trail.

If you dont think that should be illegal, thats for you to believe. But as the law stands this day, its not even a question.

It’s obviously not so black and white for the reasons I have before posted.

I.E. spending money on a vacation can easily be designated a campaign expense or business expense. The reality is there is a world of grey in laws regarding tax and campaign finance.

I do however appreciate you making your case. I reject your conclusion that it is illegal but I now know where the opposition is coming from.

If you can spend campaign money on a vacation, our system needs Jesus

I’m not saying you’re wrong but Christ almighty that’s fucked up

legal/illegal isn't decided on paper, in courthouses or legislatures, It's only decided by the ability of the group to take action against you

if you're nobody, you get arrested

Trump Is Here.

if you're somebody, you get sanctioned

if you're a nation, you get invaded

if you're the top dog nation, you get away with anything.

Didnt the feds raid his house like months ago and they havent even arrested him for whatever that was either?

Nobody who tries to arrest this guy can even explain what the crime actually is beyond "the type of crime he is accused of"

Is Alvin Bragg even federal? It says he was elected.

How does he have jurisdiction over campaign finance violations?

Has NYC arrogated that power to itself?

The federal prosecutor for that district is Damian Williams.

Bragg is the same douche bag who has virtually legalized all misdemeanors

if you aren't going to prosecute it, then it's legal regardless of what written law says.
