Trump Legal Spokesman, Alan Dershowitz is Assisting in the Defense of a New Client

Alan Dershowitz, who defended OJ, Claus Von Bulow and has been on TV defending Adolf Drumpf, has added a new client to his stable, Harvey Weinstein. Listen, I'm a liberal and I know everyone deserves a viable defense when accused of a serious crime, but Dershowitz really finds the most notoriously unpopular assholes to defend.

But, since Weinstein, OJ and Trump's ilk are in the gutter, Dershowitz. parked on the curb, is the first one they look up to.

Did you hear the conspiracy theories Dershowitz was spewing to Trump? Birds of a feather. Apologies to birds.

Dershowitz is interested in hopping on his legal bandwagon. It will give him a chance to go on Fox and flap his gums about how Weinstein has been unfairly maligned and defamed by a bunch of loose women.

Looks like the Dersh has a soft spot for rapists and child molesters.

it was about due process and keeping the state on the up and up. Since he defended Claus von Bulow he's been slipping over to the dark side.
