Let's say you're a renter, and your landlord takes you to court for not paying rent for the past 6 months. You provide cancelled checks for those 6 months in question, all having been filled out clearly and properly to your landlord, and all paid in full.
The judge states that while there appears to be no evidence that you have not paid rent to your landlord for those 6 months in question, it does not prove that a crime hasn't been committed. Therefore, you're sentenced to eviction, 6 months in jail, a $5000 fine, and ordered to pay 6 months in back rent to your landlord.
If "innocent until proven guilty" doesn't apply to the president, it does not apply to any of us. You don't have to support the president, but you should not support this "precedent."
