" it's clearly a felony to bribe someone in an attempt to alter the outcome of an election"

I guess gwb was exempt in 2000.
en.wikipedia.org

Bush promised tax breaks for all[2], sometimes using the slogan "Whoever pays taxes gets a tax break".

his election (w/ supreme court bias preempting Florida voters) was not a national repudiation of the Clinton administration, but bought votes with GWB's campaign promise of tax breaks.

washingtonpost.com
"There is money enough to take care of Social Security," he said in January 2000. "There is enough money to meet the basic needs of our government. And there is enough money to give the American people a substantial tax cut."

kind of odd that GWB played the Clinton successes & the duped American electorate played along.
