Yes, but clearly this person is referring to the other meaning of precedent. As in “he has learned that if he acts like it’s illegal and sues, media companies will roll over and give him money without going to trial”. It’s happened before and he sees no reason for it not to keep happening
Im talking about both definitions. As I said to the other person; arriving at a private deal does not set precedent for other private or public deals even if it sets an expectation in the mind of a certain dumbass. It would only be a precedent legal or otherwise if we now are okay with future presidents doing the same thing.
