Yeah. When your star witness is an admitted liar......
Dershowitz is beginning to appear to me to be a “liberal” with a sense of principles...a rare creature indeed in this country.
I’m hoping that the Trump Administration takes a “my turn” approach and begins an investigation into the Democrats.
Dersowitz is redefining the meaning of neo con. This life long ideological Democrat was badlly skaken by the policies of the Obama administration regarding Isrrael He is livid that Obama made overt anti Zionism a respectable position to hold and still be a Democrat in good standing. Currently he sees Trump’s overt pro Israel policies to be immensely preferable to those likely to be implemented by a Democratic Administration. He has been defending Trump in a way that would be unthinkable for him ten years ago.
The destroyed credibility argument is a true statement but the bottom line is that if he had an underlying crime against Flynn he would not have settled for lying to investigators. Particularly if the underlying crime related to talking to the Russians.
The Dem talking heads say that the reason he gave Flynn such a good deal is that Flynn is going to deliver Trump. The other possibility though is that he did not have a good case against Flynn.
For obstruction of justice, there has to be an underlying crime. Flynn plead guilty to a crime. muller is building a case for obstruction of justice by firing comey. It’s weak, but no one in congress is going to stop it. I’m starting to believe they will impeach and remove Trump as POTUS. I hope that Trump has something up his sleeve. If not, the only thing we can do is vote and convince others to as well.
If Flynn cut a deal why did he have to plead guilty? I would think if you were somehow turning on the president you’d get a free pass—maybe he has bad lawyers.
