Please tell me i'm not the only one who still finds this ridiculous and believes that only a court of law can determine guilt?

Politico was the outlet. Text Messages screenshots can be fabricated. All the communication outside of those screenshots conveniently left out. And all other witnesses conveniently wanting to be remaining anonymous.

I don't care if Bernie Sanders asked him to step down. They aren't a jury or a judge.

Oh, you're confused. This is a political process, not a judicial one. There's no "beyond a reasonable doubt" here, and this isn't the first issue with Platner.

No im not confused. And i dont care about the previous allegation or this one until its presented before a judge and not the court of dumbass American media consumers.

Seems reasonable to me. Especially with all the corporate capture of our media and how the DNC gets to have just enough time to pick a candidate if he drops right now.
