I just don’t get Dershowitz. He’s nominally retired from a long and storied career in the courtroom and academia and this is how he wants to spend his time, competing for the position of Troll Laureate on the stupidest media outlet in the Western world? He must be nearly as insecure as Trump.

I just wish these people had the ability to listen to themselves. They’re all caught up in this bizarro daydream Limbaugh farted out in the 90’s and refuse to apply anything they say to real world standards.

If a Democrat were president, this is the exact thing Dershowitz would say while condemning them. But they know they’re the victims of an evil liberal conspiracy that makes it seem like everything conservatives believe is a lie, so that justifies everything. Because they’re trapped in a cult and don’t know it.

This is the guy that would have us believe that he went to one of Jeff Epstein’s orgies and all he did was get a massage from an "older Russian woman.
