Harvard University professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz on Colorado decision

Dershowitz on Colorado: 'Never Seen a Decision That's So Anti-Democratic,' 'Absurd'

The Colorado Supreme Court's decision to disqualify former President Donald Trump from next year's presidential ballot "is so anti-democratic," constitutional expert and legal scholar Alan Dershowitz told Newsmax on Wednesday.

The court's 4-3 decision Tuesday made Trump the first presidential candidate in U.S. history to be deemed ineligible for the White House under a rarely used provision of the U.S. Constitution that bars officials who have engaged in "insurrection or rebellion" from holding office.

Dershowitz, appearing on "National Report,"called the decision "absurd."

Trump has not been charged or convicted of taking part in an insurrection, a term that has not been defined legally.

The U.S. Supreme Court will rule against the Colorado decision, and with more than just a conservative majority, according to Dershowitz.

Creepy friend of rapest Epstein can go to hell!

A lot of people knew Epstein and never knew he was into young girls--

A defamation suit involving Dershowitz was previously settled in 2016, with lawyers having described it as a mistake to accuse him of having sex with a minor. This was also mentioned in the released documents.

Contacted by Newsweek, Dershowitz said he had wanted the documents to be unsealed as he believes they indicate Giuffre "made up the entire story about me."

"The documents prove I never had sex with anyone associated with Epstein," he said, branding those making allegations "false accusers" and suggesting they were made for financial gain.

In regards to allegations that he witnessed abuse, Dershowitz told Newsweek: "I never saw Epstein do anything improper. If I had, I would have reported him. I have sworn to that. When Guiffre said that to her lawyers, she did not say she had sex with me.

"Her story changed. None of it is true. I never met her. I never saw Epstein in the presence of anyone underage."

I never thought much of the case. The girls weren't that young and knew what they were doing.

All these cases hinge on how many friends you have, and how many people are jealous of you and hate you.

It is a colossal waste of time and accomplishes nothing.

Those girls knew exactly what they were doing. I believe even our DA,Dave Aronberg, believed that.
