While
the impeachment farce continues and hapless Democrats deal with the problem of
having no case against the POTUS, those same Dem’s were dealt another blow
today as a presidential move significantly underlines the Democrat self-caused political
destruction.
President Donald Trump has assembled a
made-for-TV legal team for his Senate trial that includes household names like
Ken Starr, the prosecutor whose investigation two decades ago resulted in the
impeachment of Bill Clinton. Former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz said
he will deliver constitutional arguments meant to shield Trump from allegations
that he abused his power.
“The
two new Trump attorneys are already nationally known both for their involvement
in some of the more consequential legal dramas of recent American history and
for their regular appearances on Fox News, the president’s preferred television
network.
“Dershowitz is a constitutional expert whose expansive
views of presidential powers echo those of Trump. Starr is a veteran of
partisan battles in Washington, having led the investigation into Clinton’s
affair with a White House intern that brought about the president’s impeachment
by the House. Clinton was acquitted at his Senate trial; the same outcome Trump
is expecting from the Republican-led chamber.”
Now, taken from a purely legal perspective these additions
to Trump’s team demonstrate considerable knowledge, power, insight and skill possessed
by very few, if any, practitioners in today’s courtroom environment. This
writer, however, believes there’s another aspect of the team expansion which
indicates an almost certain decision in the POTUS’s favor.
While both of these individuals could most certainly
recover should the POTUS lose his case in the Senate, this writer believes that
neither attorney would willingly choose to face that kind of consequence. And
thus by the simple virtue of these two esteemed barristers stepping up on this
kind of presidential behalf, clearly portends a complete and spotless
acquittal.
That’s it for today folks,
Adios
