Biden would report it to the FBI as every other presidential candidate before Trump would have done.
What? Why? It's not a crime. No one would have reported anything like that to the FBI. You're just saying Biden would because it's some novel angle for attacking Trump. It's stupid.
Trump just told the World that it's okay to interfere with American elections. What a total POS traitor. I can't believe anyone would defend him for this.
One word describes Trump... Traitor. He willingly will deal with the scums of the earth and take their disinformation, lies or whatever in order to smear others and try to win. It’s not surprising but also not normal. A true patriot would go to the FBI or proper authorities. It ain’t that hard.
President Donald Trump may not alert the FBI if foreign governments offered damaging information against his 2020 rivals during the upcoming presidential race, he said, despite the deluge of investigations stemming from his campaign's interactions with Russians during the 2016 campaign.
Asked by ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos in the Oval Office on Wednesday whether his campaign would accept such information from foreigners -- such as China or Russia -- or hand it over the FBI, Trump said, "I think maybe you do both."
Did you really say a true patriot would go the FBI with such information?!! LOL
You have to be joking...right? You do know the FBIs history Im assuming? (point is, getting 'dirt' on other important powerful people, was their MO), and likely still is!!
(1) a foreign national, directly or indirectly, to make—
(A) a contribution or donation of money or other thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation, in connection with a Federal, State, or local election;
(B) a contribution or donation to a committee of a political party; or
(C) an expenditure, independent expenditure, or disbursement for an electioneering communication (within the meaning of section 30104(f)(3) of this title)
Information is not a donation. Donations are limited to things that are transferred so that the donor no longer has the thing. Information is not such a thing.

The left really does have a comprehension problem. Listen to what he said not what you want to hear. Getting "dirt" from a foreign source is NOT the same as interfering in an election. Digging up dirt on an opponent has been going on forever. Wake up.
Where is the outrage that Hillary Clinton (and the Obama FBI, DOJ, state department, etc.) actually used information from a foreign source to spy on a campaign and American citizens AND influence an election? Where is the outrage that they lied to a FISA court? I guess when the left does it, it's okay. Sweep it under the rug and maybe it will go away.
Trump plays the nitwits on the left like a fiddle and they fall for it hook, line, and sinker. Their butt cheeks are clenched so tight over every little thing I'm surprised they can wipe their collective asses.
Biden would report it to the FBI, so they can handle it. If something needs to be done, it’ll be initiated there.
Why is this difficult for you guys??
Because that would mean that Biden is an honest politician. Biden is an old perv and a career politician. Meaning he is a professional liar and completely dishonest. The only reason that Biden would do something honest is if he thought he could gain advantage. He might report it to the FBI after he leaked everything of value to CNN.
So...Trump is saying he's stoop as low as Hillary Clinton and the DNC? Well-nearly as low. Hillary PAID a foreign operative for "dirt" on Trump. At least Trump didn't say he'd do that.
