Trump quotes Alan Dershowitz saying consideration of 25th Amendment ‘despicable’
What Trump said was that using the 25th was that it is.... "unconstitutional powergrabbing"... if he gets to invent the reason.
Investigating a sitting goresident for crimes has happened under practically every administration. I would concede that if every president before Trump has come out as innocent, it's because they are or were pardonned before the investigations got too close...you know, like Nixon. Others I would still have reservations about and believe they are probably guilty, just unproven.
What is more interesting is that both Trump and Dershowitz make serious mistakes in their arguments. Dershowitz invents an interpretation of the 25th accepted by absolutely no one else and Trump unilaterally declares that using an amendment is unconstitutional.
Horrifying.
