Speculation on the Manafort Trial Speculation
Aug 17, 2018
RUSH: This Manafort trial, people are looking at this as a way to discredit Mueller, and the other side of it is hoping for a conviction of Manafort to justify Mueller and what he’s doing. And so this case is really not even about poor ol’ Paul Manafort. It’s about Mueller and his foolhardy, stupid, waste-of-time investigation.
Well, anyway, the jurors in the Manafort trial yesterday sent the judge four questions. And one of the questions, the question that caught the attention of the Drive-By Media, which is the representatives of the American left or the Democrat Party. The jurors or a juror, we don’t know how many, wanted to have a redefinition of “reasonable doubt.†And so this brought out all of the experts.
So the judge defined it as “doubt that you would arrive at via reason rather than emotion.†Whatever the judge said, that’s what he meant. The judge was trying to say you must assess this without any emotion. These are not his words, by the way, but this is what he meant. He said this is the doubt that reason would lead you to believe exists, as opposed to emotion and so forth.
So here come the experts all telling us what this means. And the consensus opinion is that this question from the jury is bad for the prosecutors. It means, according to the experts, that the jurors are looking for a way, any way, to exonerate Manafort. And then others come along and say “you can’t say that.†The bottom line, nobody knows. This is 12 citizens that none of us have ever met. We have no idea what these people — Professor Dershowitz was on TV this morning — well, Professor Dershowitz is on TV all the time now.
I think Professor Dershowitz has a studio with three or four cameras in it, one camera per network. And he’s got an assistant that just tells him which network is next up, and they move that camera in position. Whether that’s at his place on Martha’s Vineyard’s, I don’t know. I love Professor Dershowitz, don’t misunderstand. But you know what Professor Dershowitz said?
