On Friday, Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz appeared on Fox Business News’ “Kudlow” and blasted the four-count indictment against former President Donald Trump in regards to the January 6 protests at Capitol Hill in 2021.
Dershowitz mocked the indictment as being “banana republic land,” and accused Biden of being “afraid of the democratic process.”
“We know that President Biden urged his attorney general to indict the man who he knew was going to be the leading opponent if against him,” the professor said. “That begins to look like banana republic land. That’s what happens when people in power are afraid of the democratic process. What they do is they seek the indictment and prosecution of the people who are running against them.”
“I have a constitutional right to vote against Donald Trump for the third time,” he continued. “I voted against him twice, I intend to vote against him again, but I want to have that right to vote against him and not have that right taken away from me by prosecutors and by the president, who wants to see him imprisoned. That’s just not the American way.”
Dershowitz also made an argument that the trial in Washington, D.C. circuit being before U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan was not a fair trial considering the District of Columbia is highly “anti-Trump.”
He said, “We’re not there yet, but this is a step in that direction, and also placing the case in the District of Columbia, which is 95% anti-Trump, putting it in front of a judge with a history of anti-Trump. If the government thinks they have a strong case, they ought to join the defense and agree to move it to West Virginia or Virginia and put it in front of another judge who doesn’t have a long history of anti-Trump attitudes.”
Dershowitz added, “So, I don’t believe he can get a fair trial in the District of Columbia. And this indictment is deeply, deeply flawed. The government will have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt did he actually believe that he had genuinely lost the election.”

So do all adults since we know how corrupt the DOJ is.
The bananas are rotten too!
with the DOJ & FBI being in league with the Deep state, if they can take down the former POTUS and imprison people from Jan 6th who simply walked through the capital building videoing. which the judge in his new case has done. putting parents in jail for daring to disagree with very left leaning school boards. arresting claragy for defending his children at an abortion clinic. How long before them come after you for going to a Republican rally???. They have made their intentions known.
Dershowitz sounds really bright then tells us if Biden runs against Trump he’ll vote for Biden again. One side of his brain is asleep.
