You could say much worse things about trump

Then that implies Trump did nothing wrong? It's all a government conspiracy to attack Trump?

No. The point is, Assange should not get persecuted for his actions as a journalist. You are saying he should because of rape allegations (why that matters in this case is your argument not mine). Yet, the president candidate of the same country was found guilty of rape and is not persecuted.
