This whole thing going on with Trump and the Lady Reporter from Daily Best, and Trump's Aid being arrested for "assault," is JUST SILLY.
No, I am not defending Trump, I am defending the integrity of our Judicial System.
Now, before anyone blames the Police for arresting the Aid, they are DUTY BOUND to make the arrest IF formal charges are filed by the complainant. After investigating the incident, IF they find evidence (in this case the video) to substantiate the charge(s), they have to make the arrest. It is then up to the DA's Office to determine what action will be taken.
Now, I'm so tired of hearing Trump whine about every little thing, but I'm also tired of people abusing our Judicial System with silly stuff like this.
If Trump were half as smart as he professes to be, once he learned that the Lady had filed charges, and his Aid was arrested, he would have turned around and filed charges against that Lady. She ALSO grabbed Trump, according to him, and the video may support that as well. Then, the Police would have had to arrest her for "assault" and/or :"battery."
This way, the DA could use both charges to simply tell all parties involved to either drop their complaint, or the DA's Office will prosecute BOTH and request the maximum punishment allowed upon conviction.
This whole thing is a joke................EXCEPT THAT........in every State I am aware of.........Simple Assault and/or Battery ONLY REQUIRES one to put their hand(s) on another without that persons permission. There does not have to be any injury or even discomfort. By definition, the person has committed Simple Assault and/or Battery (depending on the State).
