The Case Against Impeaching Trump, by Alan Dershowitz (read 15 Nov 2018) This is a 2018 book of 150 pages, but only the first 28 pages have careful lawyer-like work--the rest ot the book consists of transcripts of interviews the author has been involved in and short articles which the author has written and which have appeared in various places. I found the first 28 pages worthwhile reading. The author says he supported Hillary in 2016 but he objects to the claim Trump should be impeached. I am against impeaching Trump, too, but mainly because it would be a futile effort since he would never be convicted. I feel Andrew Johnson was rightfully not convicted and the same is true for Bill Clinton. I was against Nixon being impeached until the smoking gun destroyed him and most agreed he had to go. When almost half the country supports the president it is a waste of time and effort to try to impeach him. Furthermore the legal case against Trump is not yet such that it makes sense to call for his impeachment. I feel impeachment is a drastic step and we should not fall into the trap the Republicans fell into in impeaching Clinton--in 1998, when the out of power party usually gains more power in Congress the Republicans lost seats instead of gaining seats.. I think Trump should not be impeached now but should be voted out of office in 2020. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:"A brilliant lawyer...A new and very important book. I would encourage all people...to read!"â??President Donald J. Trump "Absolutely amazing.... If you care about justice...read this book."â??Sean Hannity "Maybe the question isn't what happened to Alan Dershowitz. Maybe it's what happened to everyone else."â??Politico Alan Dershowitz has been called "one of the most prominent and consistent defenders of civil liberties in America" by Politico and "the nation's most peripatetic civil liberties lawyer and one of its most distinguished defenders of individual rights" by Newsweek. Yet he has come under partisan fire for applying those same principles to Donald Trump during the course of his many appearances in national media outlets as an expert resource on civil liberties and constitutional law. The Case Against Removing Trump seeks to reorient the debate over impeachment to the same standard that Dershowitz has continued to uphold for decades: the law of the United States of America, as established by the Constitution. In the author's own words: "In the fervor to impeach President Trump, his political enemies have ignored the text of the Constitution. As a civil libertarian who voted against Trump, I remind those who would impeach him not to run roughshod over a document that has protected us all for two and a quarter centuries. In this case against impeachment, I make arguments similar to those I made against the impeachment of President Bill Clinton (and that I would be making had Hillary Clinton been elected and Republicans were seeking to impeach her). Impeachment and removal of a president are not entirely political decisions by Congress. Every member takes an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution sets out specific substantive criteria that MUST be met. I am thrilled to contribute to this important debate and especially that my book will be so quickly available to readers so they can make up their own Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
