Also, Biden didn't promise Ukraine that they were getting $1B if they fired the prosecutor, which is the false claim in the advertisement referenced by this article. He threatened they would not get $1B unless they did. In other words, it wasn't a sufficient condition; it was a necessary condition.
Surely those of us who participate on HN and code for a living can appreciate the logical difference:
if (prosector_employed) {
ukraine_bank_bal += 0;
} else {
if (other_conditions) {
ukraine_bank_bal += 1_000_000_000_000;
}
}
