Well, I'd have picked this person (before he became a San Francisco police detective, lol).

This sounds like a serious, well thought out selection. No 'hyperbolics' like on the dem side.

Meanwhile Schiff and Nadler prepare to launch their prosecution in the Senate...

I have never understood Dershowitz at all. He says things that make me respect him, then he says things that make me grit my teeth.

If Trump asked him, and he agreed, I will hope for the best and trust in that.

Maybe Captain Kirk's lawyer would be of help as well (from the TOS Season 1 episode "Court Martial").

I like Robert Ray a lot as he is a frequent guest on Laura Ingraham. He is topshelf legal counsel.

Trump’s real lawyers are going to bitchslap the Dem Congressclowns for the nation and the world to see.

Any Dem donor that has any sense is going to zip up their pocketbook for this election cycle.

Then Trump gets to pwn the Dems at the SOTU address.

this is great news! our household has really been hoping Dershowitz would be on the team ... Dersh is a Democrat, but he’s an old-fashioned civil-rights type of liberal who is totally disgusted that the Democrat party has turned hard left and abandoned the historic principles of liberalism (which by the way are now considered as “populist” by many)

Dersh is smart as a whip and still one hell of a trial lawyer ... not to mention one of the most knowledgeable lawyers on the planet ... Trump couldn’t have made a better choice ...

Andy Griffith is dead. Sheriff Taylor and Matlock are immortal.

Agree!

The only problem is he has that slight Epstein taint that hopefully won’t develop into anything more then a past bad choice. However it could be he’s a rancid perv too. It will be interesting to see if the Rats play that card. If they do, there’s plenty of potential blowback on some of their demigods - aka Slick Meister, and likely more!

Andy was a big lib, but he avoided most public pronouncements. He had to play a gay guy in the eighties before getting the Matlock role.

Robert Ray is a good pick.

I’m sure Sekulow will provide behind the scenes support.

I wonder if it’s because Jay and Rudy will be called as witnesses?

Dershowitz and Starr did a great job for Jeffry Epstein.
