    SNIP
    In his book, The Best Defense, Dershowitz gave a view of the approach he would later take in the Simpson case. "Once I decide to take a case," Dershowitz wrote, "I have only one agenda: I want to win. I will try, by every fair and legal means, to get my client off--without regard to the consequences." In his memoir The Best Defense, Dershowitz noted that "almost all of my clients have been guilty."

    That’s the trouble with lawyers. They don’t care about justice or truth, just winning and money.

    You need to get a full half-dozen lawyers to say "What he did isn't removable from office"?

    That's the defense... shouldn't take more than 60 seconds to make... Wonder how much Dershy is making to say that??

    Haha, another obvious attempt at trolling the Clintons and throwing red meat at the base, just like having the Clinton accusers sit in the first row of one of the debates in 2016. Just revisiting the Starr years, he thinks, will make him not guilty? Poor form and will further divide the country, but as expected from the troll in chief.

    Dershy's over-the-hill and misses the limelight. He'd pay them to be on the team.

    He's been saying long before this announcement there isn't any impeachable offense here, or even any crime alleged. A rare liberal who puts civil rights ahead of partisan politics. Can't wait for this to start.

    That's why Nancy chose Impeachment Managers who all wanted Trump impeached before anything ever came up about Ukraine. The House of Representatives, the lower house, is supposed to represent ALL the people in the country. Pelosi has not represented anyone but Democrats since she gained the House throne & gavel a year ago. An Impeachment Manager Team which represented the people would be composed of half Democrats and half Republicans.

    Nancy chose the most ferocious prosecutors she has at her disposal. Trump needs a strong defense team. That seems "fair and balanced".

    We all know how this rodeo ends anyway.

    Dershowitz sends a message. This is a political sham.

    Dershowitz is a media whore aching for a few more minutes in the limelight.

    Your complete inability to address his arguments is noted. He gains nothing for this, being shunned by the corrupt LW establishment.

    He can do both (self aggrandize and be a truth teller) . He has a terrific mind and even back in the day, political column rival Don Feder begrudgingly wrote he has a certain "moral consistency". It's called ethics.

    LOL... is this the same guy that claimed the SCOTUS could overrule an "unconstitutional impeachment"??

    Why, yes it is...

    https://thehill.com/opinion/white-h...ould-overrule-an-unconstitutional-impeachment

    He's already behind the 8 ball when he spouts crap like that..... but we'll be watching at the trial if he wants to try and redeem himself...

    Dershowitz is brilliant. No one since Bork understands the Constitution better.

    Correct. Those ex-ambulance chasers and public defenders on the left look overmatched.

    Trump has a bipartisan defense team.

    Just as there was bipartisan opposition to the shampeachment.

    How many of the members of Trump's legal team helped Jeffrey Epstein avoid a lengthy prison sentence?
