So we know it is a good thing.



He's been a blowhard, just looking for attention, for years. And now he is pre-judging DT's innocence.. Beyond saying he's innocent till proven guilty, he's saying it's UNLIKELY that DT will be found guilty. And he has no basis for saying that.

And remember, this "civil libertarian" criticized the American media for not going after Amanda Knox, saying that there was a mountain of evidence against her. The highest court in Italy said there was NO credible evidence against her. And after 8 years of trials and 4 years in prison, they said she was definitively innocent.

But Alan attacked Amanda Knox, while he's supporting DT. Some civil libertarian.

ON EDIT: If anyone else is wondering why I posted a link to Fox, it's because that's where Alan Dershowitz chose to publish this opinion piece.

To be criminal there must be admissible evidence that proves beyond a reasonable doubt that a statutory crime has been committed. It is unlikely that such a conclusion will be reached by the special counsel with regard to President Trump or anyone currently in his administration. It is possible that he may find criminal conduct on the part of General Flynn, but even that is unlikely. But even if Flynn were to be indicted it is certainly possible that Trump would pardon him.
