Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere
allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new.
There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. Is
there no such thing any longer as Due
Process?
Ok, let's take a look at this.
The first sentence is no doubt a fact.
People's lives are shattered and destroyed every day by
allegations. I would expect Donald J
Trump to be well aware of this. He has
engaged in this type of behavior for years.
In just the last couple of years he has made unfounded allegations
against many people and organizations because they did not support him
personally.
Continuing, "Some are true and some are
false". I understand he is limited
by the number of characters Twitter allows, but once an allegation is shown to
be true, it is no longer an allegation, it is a fact. Police reports, photographs, and witness
testimony put the lie to denials of no wrong doing. This chronic denial of an actual truth
actually has a name. It is called
Anosognosia. It is not simply denial of
a problem, but the genuine inability to recognize that the problem exists. It
is a common consequence of brain injuries, and occurs to varying degrees in
such disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and Alzheimer's disease.
Potus
then states with regard to the allegations to which he is referring, "Some
are old and some are new. There is no
recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. " If you are poor and weak this is generally
true. If you are rich and have access
and influence it is not so much the case.
This is particularly true in the case/s/ of people with a connection to
Potus. See Joe Arpaio and his pardon for
an example. Furthermore, does a wrong or
act of injustice cease to be so merely due to the passage of time?
Is there no such thing any longer as Due
Process? With regard to this statement
one must actually know what due process is and when and where it applies. Due process is fair treatment through the
normal judicial system, especially as a citizen's entitlement. The people who have resigned or been fired in
the Trump administration based on claims of domestic abuse have not been denied
due process. They have either resigned
because they wish to avoid the application of due process which would also
apply to their accusers or been subject to termination policies which do not
rise to the demands of a judicial process.
Whaduyathink?
