The difference is that the court system has to find him guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt in a criminal case. Public opinion works on the same premise as civil lawsuits, we find people guilty in our minds when the balance of the evidence suggests they're likely to have done it.

I know.  My point wasn't so much that the two are the same, I was just refuting MG's claim that people have made up their minds because they hate Trump.

I didn't hate OJ when I reached the conclusion that the justice system failed.  I reached my conclusion based on the mountain of evidence in spite of the fact that it wasn't enough.

Likewise, there is a mountain of evidence against Trump, but before they try and impeach a president for treason within a Republican controlled legislative branch, they need to be certain the evidence is air tight.

And believing that mountain of evidence even though no charges have been laid has nothing to do with my feelings for Trump. 

It has to do with the evidence so far.
