Alan Dershowitz Doubts Conviction Will Be Overturned Because Appellate Judges Are ‘Terrified’ To Help Trump
Daily Caller ^ | 5/30/24 | Harold Hutchison

Posted on 05/31/2024 11:40:45 AM PDT by OakOak

Noted attorney Alan Dershowitz said on Thursday that he doubts a New York appellate court will overturn former President Donald Trump’s conviction in his Manhattan trial.

…he believes appellate judges will be reluctant to overturn the jury’s decision because they might be biased against the former president.

I don’t think it would be reversed by the appellate division,” Dershowitz continued. “These are judges who are terrified of being perceived of as helping Trump in any way. Don’t know whether or not the New York Court of Appeals in Albany will have the ability to not consider the impact it will have on individuals as judges.

Beliee me, in this case, it was deliberately to threaten them.

I would not be surprised to find out that Merchan, Bragg, Garland, and Biden had a hand in it.

BTW, doxxing is illegal.

He’s not going to say it from Obama’s beachfront compound.

He’s a complete fraud.

It’s not fascist, genius.

It’s what Communists do. They steal property.

What they can’t make, they take.

The pig “judge” in this gig is a Spaniard Communist...or more properly, just another Spanish gangster. Communism = Gangsterism anyway.

This is a Communist coup, no doubt about it. Same MO, every where they’ve done it.

It needs to go directly to the supreme court and not wait for a New York appeals process. The urgency, and the national significance, and the gross violations of trumps civil rights demand it.

I agree, I also want to know what happened tho the Presidential Immunity Case that was supposed to go to the Supreme Court?

“But the Democrat cult is so blinded by their objective HATE for the man that they’ve been trying to do this since he came down that escalator.”

Umm, not exactly. This is manifestation of their hatred for America as founded and those who defend it. Fulfillment of Marxist BHusseinOsama’s “fundamental transformation” (90% complete)

I wouldn’t be surprised if the judges were afraid of physical harm. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if one or more of the jurors were indirectly, or directly, threatened if they should vote the “wrong” way.

Do you think they will know to look for the DNA? The whole point is to do it on the sly. But I don’t honestly think anyone would do such a thing. It is so beneath us.

I think you are entirely correct on all counts.

SCROTUS will run backwards from this they are so afraid of being accused of being biased. At the rate we are going I expect SCROTUS expects they will be dismantled if they don't toe the line. The three branches are disappearing to one quickly.

Only a few smart people understand the real danger in lawfare and this political witch hunt in NY. The courts in NY have become prostitute and for sale.

Do you expect that there is any real possibility for a fair impartial hearing in NY? They must back the courts or admit that they have allowed them to go this far with injustice. Supporting Trump would be to admit they have all made a huge mistake and miscarriage of justice.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but they got him where they want him and they’re not gonna let go. And as far as the supreme court justices, they will decline to even listen to this case. That’s why the Democrats have been putting heavy pressure on the Supreme Court justices of late… The fix was in looong ago and planning stage behind closed doors has been in the works for months and probably years . They even selected the most left-wing communist little Marxist to be jurors.. Sickening isn’t it?! But it’s gonna boil down to one thing, because there is no law on the face of this land that will remedy this without a grueling fight at the ballot box . And it’s gonna be up to the American people to get their country back. Look at how our representatives in the DC swamp have all of a sudden crawl under the bed and coward in fear. It’s too late ladies and gentlemen they have fired the first shot!

Yes, exactly. PLUS what you posted. The Democrat Party is a hate cult.

If the Dung Bettle Party turd rollers can let all the felons out of prison and back onto our streets and into our home, we Americans can sure as hell vote for one.
