Democrats have replaced 'quid pro quo' with 'bribery' to describe Trump's alleged misdeeds-that term might resonate better with ordinary Americans.

As US President Donald Trump continues to attack the impeachment inquiry, Democratic politicians have changed tack in going after the president.

In sharpening their language by using “bribery”, Democrats are upping the ante, and it seems deliberately using a more aggressive style as a means of getting through to the public and avoiding the Latin "quid pro quo." The impeachment inquiry concerns Trump’s July phone call with Zelensky, which first came to attention when an anonymous government whistleblower filed a complaint. During his phone conversation, Trump asked for a “favour” according to an account provided by the White House.
