Exactly. If Dersh joined the fight against impeachment, it would take the focus off the Biden’s and Ukraine and instead give the media an opportunity to focus it on President Trump’s ties to Epstein. We do not want that.

Dershowitz is damaged goods.

ALAN DERSHOWITZ: There’s nothing in the Constitution about articles of impeachment. There’s nothing about forwarding. As far as the American public is concerned the president has been impeached and that’s why it was utterly unfair to suggest that we don’t have to allow the Senate now to acquit him. So, there are two alternatives. If he hasn’t been impeached Nancy Pelosi has to go to the media and say please, all the media that have said he’s impeached, please withdraw that. Correct it. He’s not impeached. He’s presumed innocent. He’s absolutely innocent. His status hasn’t changed. And if he has been impeached the Senate has to start their trial as soon as they choose to. Remember the Senate is the sole judge of guilt or innocence of impeachment. And so the Democrats can’t have it both ways. They can’t say on the one hand to the public we’re saying he’s impeached but for the Senate we’re saying he’s not impeached. You know what I say? This is obstruction of the Senate. Exactly the same charge they made against the president. This is an abuse of power, exactly the same charge they made against the president. It’s wrong constitutionally. It’s wrong morally and it’s wrong politically.

The real victims here are the American people and the Constitution. The Constitution has been damaged by this ploy being used by Nancy Pelosi who I have long admired but this is a very bad time for the United States Constitution.

Regarding an Epstein Smear of Dershowitz if joining Trump’s defense;think about The Clinton’s involvement with Epstein. I doubt they would want to risk a smear on Dershowitz, as a lot too close to home.

Dershowitz, has been a paragon of the old liberal Civil Rights Dems and could really push Pelosi’s and her puppet’s hypocrisy down their throats.
