Oh yes, but then he'd be convicted as a rapist, and not have 7 years of press attention and peopel claiming he was all innocent and it was just the bad US that made him have unprotected sex with those girls ..
I may have mixed things up here because I'm utterly bored of it by now, but let's just say that I'm glad Ecuador booted him out.
Now we will naturally have herdes of idiots claiming that Assange is innocent, because hiding in embassies abusing the asylum process is what you do when you're innocent. We'll get plenty of "Wikileaks is a force for good" statements again too, utterly ignoring the fact that it turned into a biased political mechanism that assisted Trump.
Come to think of it, it appears that Wikileaks supporters bring a similar level of critical thinking to their devotion as Trump supporters. Hmmm..
