Yes, extortion is where you threaten - Trump's threat is the constant "Birther" drumbeat nonsense. BTW Stephen Colbert offered Trump $1million from the Colbert SuperPAC to a Trump charity if he, Stephen, could tea bag Donald. I think Donald is terrible for refusing that - think of the kids! How selfish!

Here's Obama's great talk at the 2011 Correspondence Dinner where he eviscerated Donald Trump in person (while the Seals were killing bin Laden), plus the official release of the Obama birth video:

I feel bad for Stephen Colbert. The poor guy might get arrested for extortion. I can't believe he would try to extort Donald Trump like that. LOL.

In all seriousness, when you offer someone money to do something, that is obviously not extortion. If I offer you $5000 to go go skydiving, that is not extortion. That is a dare. A dare is not extortion. It is in no way like extortion. Trump's offer was basically a dare. He's daring Obama to release those records and will pay to see him do it. That is not even close to being extortion.
