Fraud is different from not fraud. Instead of arguing that trump did not commit fraud, you are stuck arguing that fraud is no different from not fraud. That just shows where you are.
Let me give you another example. Kerry got four deferments, and applied for a fifth, before VOLUNTEERING for frontline duty in Vietnam. The four deferments he got was to get a four year degree, and become an officer. The fifth deferment he applied for was to learn Vietnamese, so he could serve on the frontline better. He then not only volunteered for service, but volunteered to be on the frontline. Actually, because they were an insertion force, they were beyond the frontline, but they were in full combat.
On the other side, trump applied for deferments with fraudulent claims. It is called fraud, and he is actually proud of it.
