Imagine that a senior Hillary aide--not to mention Hillary herself--were indicted over the email scandal. In a million years, could you imagine John Heilemann asking what such person would have to do to prove his or her innocence? Neither could I. But on today's With All Due Respect, Heilemann asked a Florida criminal defense attorney [not Lewandowski's lawyer]: "What is the legal standard? What does Corey Lewandowski have to prove, to prove his innocence?"
Attorney Whitney Boan politely pointed out that under the Constitution, Lewandowski doesn't have to prove or disprove anything, and that to the contrary the burden is on the State of Florida to prove the charge "beyond a reasonable doubt." Heilemann was appropriately contrite, saying "you're right to call me on having gotten that thing backwards, and thank you for doing that." But the presumption of innocence is ninth-grade civics stuff. That Heilemann would have ever asked such a question in the first place suggests some serious bias.

Guessing forensics would disprove the bruise pattern was caused by the alleged forceful grab.
> It proves his motivation was not for security motives but for political, to stop the report from asking a question.
Are you a mind reader?
Yep. That is why I’m sure the defense lawyers will zero in very quickly on self-inflicted.
Her mom has worked, and may still work for-—
..
..
..
an immigration nonprofit agency that aids -— immigrants.
The question is, are these legal immigrants, or not?
I’m not sure b/c I don’t speak Spanish! Lots of info on the site about how to apply for a driver’s license without papers, how to do this and that—
Idk enough about it to know one way or the other.
However, it’s very telling to know her mom is very anti-Trump AND works in nonprofit immigration services.
Is she Alex P. Keaton?
Hold tight sweetie, it’s on the way.
And Michelle is a fraud, but you knew that didn’t you?
Your posting history strongly suggests you only post during elections. Troll much?
Since you are an election troll...all should ignore your hissy fit.
No it is a troll.
Freepers use to want to get to the bottom of a “serious” story.....until the Demorats learned all they needed to do was break a sex scandal about any one of our candidates and the feeding frenzy would take off and devour our own while they delight in the show.
How about answering his question regarding this specific story, incidence?
Cutting in front of a secret service agent to grab her. So unless he thought the secret service agent was blind, death, and dumb, that is the only reasonable conclusion.
YOU are a Drama Queen!! Are ALL Cruz supporters WUSSIES?? Grow up, honey.
Did Corey DUMP you in high school?? Really, you seem like it’s personal with you.
Maybe her girlie man boyfriend, Jamie Weinstein did that to her just for this case.
No...what does Michele Fields’ mom do for a living?
She works (or did work) for a nonprofit agency that handles Honduran immigrants in California.
Why is it that you think that everyone who points out the insanity of people who hate Trump is a rabid Trump supporter?
I'm actually fairly neutral on this, because in my considered opinion they all are frauds. None of them are worth our votes, much less our financial support and the emotional investment people have placed in them. None of them are gonna stop this societal and economic collapse.
Even if you took all the good points of all of the candidates and ex- and 'suspended' candidates, and none of their bad points, and gave them a majority of honorable Conservatives and Libertarians in the Legislature, at best they might slow the collapse to give people a chance to prepare themselves to weather it.
The only thing I like about Trump is that he exposes people who have been pretending to be honorable conservatives and libertarians for what they REALLY are.
I believe we were given the Conservative candidate that we long asked for, but are surely not deserving of as a nation. And it was overall accepted pretty much with a lot of excitement that we may very well finally have a chance to get our country fully on track again.... until Trump stepped up with his glitz, glamor and foul mouthed insults that played well with an irritated and angry population...but worse he played to many in the darker side of life for that....those who jumped on his train for the fun of the ride.... They really didn't care that Cruz was in the race, or that the race matters on what happens in our country or in the world...they are just loving the fight as they would a boxing fight and Trump continues to give them that thrill....."they belong" now amongst themselves and with their Leader.
I do not speak of those who care about our nation and the politics of who truly believe Trump is their man.......but those of the dark side of life. As now the news is full of the dark smut they live in and continue to push on all social networks that they rally in and with, rather than even look at really what they are supporting...it doesn't matter to them...they have a hero period...who by the way will not deliver what some hope for....and I don't think they much care either way...the ride is enough for them as long as it lasts.
Additionally Trump didn't expose those people to any but to the underlings who never listened....these conservatives and libertarians have been well known by those who watch and are informed and realize elections matter far more than just a ride.
Further I did not choose Cruz based on anything in this election cycle...I made a point to investigate those who claimed MIGHT run 'before' they announced.....and took the pains to discover where they stood and what about. I did so because after seeing how Obama was elected by such a wave of the masses who didn't care what he stood for, and seeing McCain hand the election to Obama.... I was going to be certain who I voted for stood on ground that was significant to my standards and genuinely cared about this nation and the Constitution.......not the overall publics quirky idea of voting.
... Trump stepped up and it's been downhill in this election since then....the party is split...conservatism kicked to the curb, voters at each other's necks, violence filthy language ensued, fighting amongst all groups and across the social media.... and a host of other episodes of drama and entertainment for the masses...... It's embarrassing and has given the Demorats everything they wanted without trying...Trumps done it all for them.
So here we are with a man who had not sought the actual Presidency now possibly going to win this Primary....with a family touting "the Trump BRAND will now be known at every homes table Worldwide", (exactly why he ran), and Trump fast looking for a way of escape by sabatoging his own run....the question remains....IMO...will he hand it over to Hillary when all is said and done as McCain did? or will he throw his support to the man who will actually be our Representative?????
