I guess poor white people would be equally as bias because he is hugely wealthy so he says. I guess he could never be tried as he would never receive a fair trial in the US.

Otherwise, the RWNJ would be accusing him of impaneling a corrupt and biased GJ of his own choosing.

(28,125 posts)Dershowitz's fame is iconic but in checking details of his Wiki entry, I found this:
Dershowitz is an avowed supporter of the establishment wing of the Democratic Party. In 2016, he stated that he would cancel his party membership if Keith Ellison was appointed party chair;[32]
Hmmmm.

Dershowitz thinks the Palestinians are genocidal.

(6,925 posts)How many leftovers from the '60s whose heroes were Abbie Hoffman, Kunsler, and John Kerry now have heroes who are lawyers and Constitutional Law experts? LOL
I now follow Painter, Lawrence Tribe, Ari M., and a host of other legal experts. They are my heroes now. They are true patriots.

And he's a Republican who makes sense.

(12,545 posts)Alan Dershowitz and Trump attended a party where under age prostitutes were offered to the guests. Methinks the professor doth protest too much. Make Alan Dershowitz talk about it. Why is Dershowitz so sympathetic and defensive when it comes to Trump?
