I appreciate your honest answer , it’s the first time it has been answered in any way . My problem here is , if those partisan leaders that we both agree are hypocrites , would have followed their own words , we wouldn’t be needing to have a discussion about Dershowitz’s credibility.

One year from today, a new President will be sworn in. What a glorious day that will be. I may have to crack open my bottle of Opus One Napa Valley Red Wine 2014 for the occasion. Cheers!

But not enough to vote for him.

I explained several days ago why I think that is. I believe that Trump did not really articulate his extent of support for some harder line pro-Israel policies until after he was elected. In fact, Trump made the announcement in December 2017 that he was recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital-- a year after he was elected.

And then here is an article just days later by Dershowitz heralding Trump's decision.

Why Trump is right in recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital

By January 2018, a month later, Dershowitz was meeting personally with Trump at Mar-a-lago to discuss Mid-East policy.

Also, watch for Trump to pardon Jonathan Pollard at some point. That should outrage Republicans, but they will find a way to defend it.

A Constitutional Lawyer's position on interpreting the U.S. Constitution should not change depending on who he is representing or on his own personal stake. However, with Alan Dershowitz, that does appear to be the case. Read what Laurence Tribe said. Tribe's credentials on constitutional law are just as strong as Dershowitz.

LAwyers will argue any side of any case depending on who's paying them.

Didn't Biden refer to it as a lynching?

Not sure about Biden. but it's been a popular term for black house dims when they ran out of rational responses. Nadler at one point in the Clinton impeachment said republicans were acting like “lynch mob.”

Does anyone have more of the Dershowitz smoking gun interview? Did he also mentioned in the interview anything about there needing to be bipartisan support in such a situation?

Like when Obama pardoned "Bradley Manning"
Preemptive selective outrage. You are a professional

No, I hated it when Obama pardoned him/her. I hated it when Bill Clinton pardoned Marc Rich. I hated it when Trump pardoned Joe Arpaio. I hate presidential pardons in general. They are often abused. They should let our system of justice run its course and stay the hell out of it.

But as we all know, bipartisan support is only possible when the members from the President's party are willing to do the right thing. When that's not the case, bipartisan support becomes virtually impossible and therefor moot.
