Alan Dershowitz reminds of me of the Inspector Renaud character in Casablanca. He goes whichever way the wind blows. For some time now, Dershowitz has been downwind of the Trump dumpster fire and the stench has gotten all over him. He regularly complains about being a social pariah on Martha’s Vineyard because of that fact.

Apparently he’s decided to redress that issue and on Fox News of all places.

It’s a win/win situation, what you’re about to see. 1) Dershowitz now looks liberal and cool again. He’s not a Trump voter, he declares, he merely defended Trump as a lawyer; 2) Rupert Murdoch is now a former Trumper as well. So Fox News is the conduit for anti-Trump rhetoric. Apparently Maria didn’t get the memo.

You will see more of this as the next few months tick by. My instinct is that Fox News is not going to go fully anti-Trump until after the midterms. They’re going to keep the ship steady and hope for the best outcome in the November elections.

After the midterms, when Trump may decide to announce his candidacy, then I think you’ll see the knives come out. I predict that the coronation of Ron DeSantis as the new Republican king will take place this fall and Donald Trump will be but a memory.

That should get some furor going on Truth Social and right-wing media. Or, maybe not. Maybe Trump will be too busy dealing with indictment by one or more federal agencies.

Stay tuned.

  1. The whole Hunter Biden BS is another Bengazi, But her emails red herring to distract from the real crimes committed by the Trump family. How can these same idiots not think the Kushner and Ivanka weren’t influence peddling? And Bartiromo has the gall to do a show about integrity? Puleeze.

  2. Truth matters to these nazi klan cult members as much as the Hispanic children mattered to dump as he broke asylum laws to separate them from their families WITH NO PLAN TO EVER REUNITE THEM. FUCK THAT CAPO. By the way, one of my best friends grew up on the Vineyard, and is part of the American Indian tribe that originally owned the whole island. They would love it if all the rich assholes that summer there took a slow train to Hell.

      • Thanks for posting that picture. People think I’m harsh in some of my posts, but look what these nazi assholes have done & 75million buttwipes are fine with it. Fuck all of them. My five uncles were in WW2. They went with guns because there was no other way to stop these evil child killers. Unless ALL of us get off our collective arses & do whatever it takes to vote, we will see more dead children. I’d rather see all the traitors shot at dawn than to see one more destroyed child.

  3. I wonder if the talking heads on fux nuz have to take I.Q. tests before being hired and their I.Q.’s must be well below 100 to get hired. I’ve yet to hear anything come out of any of their mouths that makes any sense whatsoever. Where do they find these people?

  4. When you come across people who spew this garbage, do not try to understand them, do not debate them, do not try to reason with them. Most of them don’t truly believe what they say. It’s all about raw power and “owning the libs.” Instead, do everything you can to defeat Republicans at the polls.

  5. There is a line from.Tom Meyer’s song about Hubert Humphrey–“Once a fiery liberal spirit…” Once upon a time The Dersh was a liberal.defending freedom of speech and human rights. That ended around the time of the O.J. trial. I have concluded he will say whatever is necessary to.hang out with the Big Boys. He is tgevpilitical.version of Leroy from Beauty and the Beast, kissing the ring of whichever Gaston is in power. He loves the proximity to money and power and glamor.

  6. I’d like to put in a word for Inspector Renaud. If one could imagine Inspector Renaud as Andy Griffith, Dershowitz would be Barney Fife. There’s just no comparison.

    It’s true he was pretty well amoral, but he did – or so it was implied – team up with Rick at the end.
