'The View' melts down as impeachment lawyer Alan Dershowitz defends Trump: 'I'm moving you on or cutting you off'
Fox News ^ | January 29 2020 | Sam Dorman

"The View" erupted with testy moments on Wednesday as Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz defended President Trump against the co-hosts during a discussion about the ongoing Senate impeachment trial.

Many of the co-hosts took issue with Dershowitz's answers, including Behar who, at one point, told the Trump impeachment defense attorney that his argument was "baloney." Co-host Whoopi Goldberg also cut off Dershowitz off as he attempted to give some historical background on whether impeachment could proceed without actual crimes.

He was responding to co-host Joy Behar's claim that no other constitutional scholar agreed with him about needing a crime for impeachment. Dershowitz, a renowned legal scholar, has written dozens of books. Behar and Goldberg do not have law degrees, although co-host Sunny Hostin does.

Chris Wallace and Joy Behar should have a debate on the constitution! This really belies the question, why do journalists and tv personalities do what they do? They seem to know everything about everything, especially journalists like WallAss who have the nerve to argue with Alan Dershowitz like a tv interview is a gig at the debate society.

WallAss and Behar,they know EVERYTHING! Why aren’t they running the country? People need to start calling them out to their face about this crap.

“What part of High Crimes does she not get?”

It says ‘high crimes or misdemeanors’. Well, maybe ‘misdemeanor’ is a non-felony crime.

So The View skanks, as well as Chris Wallace, know more about the Constitution than Dershwitz does.

“#12. I think Whoopi was a Predator in the movie “Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem”. She sure had the dreads for it and the attitude.”

Couldn’t be her. The predator had a gun.

I don’t know about that. He walked into the lion’s den knowing what he would get. Why? Perhaps every time experts like Dershowitz give the lunatics to expose their stupidity, they never disappoint. He forces them to turn around their two faces and show their asses...

I think the Democrats and the Swamp are totally scared now that Trump has taught some Republicans and conservatives how to fight and win. That just blew up the whole process for the swamp.

“Whoopi always looks like a creature in the bar scene in Star Wars.”

She was the inspiration for the alien from “Predator”.

“[[Behar who, at one point, told the Trump impeachment defense attorney that his argument was “baloney.” ]]

Well by golly the legal scholar Behar teached clueless alan with that brilliant rebuttable”

That's what is called a Don Lemon moment by insulting one’s betters when you have less knowledge than a hamster.

Imagine the meltdown on The View when Trump is re-elected. Will Joy and Whoopi pack up and leave the country or sanctimoniously drink poisoned kool-ad live on air?
