Does anyone still listen to Alan Dershowitz??

I noticed that FOX had him on this morning as some sort of "legal expert".

First of all, he said there was nothing illegal with the campaign contributions that Trump made...

He could have put in a billion dollars of his own, if he wanted, he said.

That may be true, but it is not "legal" to give someone money to keep them quiet, in order to influence an election, and then, hide that transaction in some sort of secret shell company.

One doesn't have to be a lawyer to have a little common sense.

Alan Dershowitz has lost his common sense, if he ever had any?

He used to a person that was highly respected in the legal community. Why would he put everything he has done in his entire career on the line for Donald Trump?

Anyone can have an opinion but that does not make it law or a fact.

I think Dershowitz fell off a bike and has brain damage. That's an opinion, but it doesn't make it a law or a fact.

Shades of breitbart.com in certain circles on here during that time.
