But that accusation is incompatible with Mr. Dershowitz’ main argument: that and impeachable “high crime and misdemeanor” requires an indictable offense.

The New York Times also corrected Senators who distorted my statement. Time for an apology and retraction. Some Senators and other critics accuse him of suggesting that even Nixon was not impeachable, despite his clear crimes. (MTC)

Watch my answer that the media mischaracterizes as saying a president can do anything illegal as long as he is motivated by a desire to be re-elected. I don’t say that and Schiff doesn’t say I said it—until the media deliberately distorted my answer. (MTC)

I NEVER said in my argument or in answers that a president can do “anything” as long as his motive was re-election. Totally made up lie by Schiff and media. See for yourself.https://youtu.be/uqmhfyH09jM

Watch my senate speech and hear me repeatedly say that a president CAN be impeached if he commits crimes or criminal -like conduct— even if his motive was to help his reeelection. (MTC)

The American public would be informed better by a debate than by childish epithets such as those that are being hurled at me by partisan pundits, academics and politicians. Please respond if you accept.

Let’s elevate the quality of the dialogue and avoid ad hominems.The issues are too important to trivialize. The debate could be live or on TV. (MTC)

I challenge my critics – especially those who are deliberately misinterpreting my arguments – to a Lincoln/Douglas-type town hall debate in which name calling is prohibited and intellectual arguments must be responded to with other intellectual arguments. (MTC)

The Manager’s theory takes us down a dangerous road.

I believe Joe Biden is a patriot who cares deeply about the national interest, but he also cares deeply about his family. Under the Manger’s dangerous theory, he would have to be psychoanalyzed to determine the role each motive may have played in an entirely lawful action.(MTC)

Under the Manager’s overbroad theory of motivation – the theory to which I was responding – Joe Biden (who I admire and like) would be guilty even if a small part of his motivation for having the Ukraine prosecutor fired was to protect his son or his son’s company. (MTC)

But a lawful act— holding up funds, sending troops to vote, braking a promise about Syria—does not become unlawful or impeachable if done with a mixed motive of both promoting the public interest and helping his RE-election. Please respond to my argument , not a distortion of it.

Let me be clear once again (as I was in the senate): a president seeking re-election cannot do anything he wants. He is not above the law. He cannot commit crimes. He cannot commit impeachable conduct. (MTCO

A good motive does not justify criminal behavior. But a mixed motive should not turn perfectly legal conduct into an impeachable crime, as the Manager’s theory would. Please answer my argument, not Schumer’s distortion of it.

Further distorting my argument, Senator Schumer and others are now saying that under my argument, Nixon was not impeachable. Of course he was. He committed numerous crimes: obstruction of justice; witness tampering; destruction of evidence; suborning perjury and more. (MTC)

Presidents cannot do anything illegal in order to get re-elected. But nor can their lawful behavior be turned into a criminal or impeachable offense just because it was motivated in part by electoral considerations. Lincoln, Obama examples. Please answer THAT!
