      Dershowitz might not be the best person to cite at this particular moment in history. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1068339979250675712 …

      To be fair, Dershowitz also had derpy views about Watergate.pic.twitter.com/yBUSeyNnwG

      For those who have trouble reading it, that's an AP article from 11/21/1974 quoting Dershowitz as saying, "I'm not happy seeing Nixon's gang being tried by blacks and liberals in the District of Columbia." (h/t @JohnCammo)

          Dershowitz is a professional contrarian with a John Adams complex.

          Yeah. He’s a consummate criminal defense lawyer. I’m happy that people like him exist in the world. We actually need them sometimes. But I’m also comfortable discounting his opinion in cases such as these. The devil’s advocate does not always deserve our attention.

          The Art Of Retweeted Miami Herald

          But!! @AlanDersh defends pedophiles, so that’s worth something to GOP’s Trump. It might be worth a lot, actually. “Acosta himself said he was pressured by Epstein’s team of lawyers, which included... Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz...”https://mobile.twitter.com/MiamiHerald/status/1067778749276536832 …

          Multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein was accused of sexually assaulting dozens of teen girls. Their stories were dismissed by prosecutors, who cut Epstein a lenient deal. His victims have never had a voice, until now. Part 1 of #PerversionofJustice: https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/article220097825.html …

          I never realized the @FoxNews love affair with him till now. Add in the sexual peccadilloes and it's a cross decades threesome.
