Dershowitz: Impeachment of Trump ‘Would Be a Foolish Abuse’ of Dems’ New Majority

‘I think that Democrats will be foolish to devote too much of their priorities to investigating political enemies at this point’

EXCERPT:

DERSHOWITZ: "First there will be a lot of division within the democratic Party. The extremists will be saying, 'Impeach, impeach, impeach. We now have votes, we can impeach. Let’s bring it to Senate for a trial.' That would be a foolish abuse of their newly elected majority. But I do think we’ll see investigations. I think that various chairmen of the committees that have jurisdiction will be sending out subpoenas. What they’ll be saying is, 'Look, we had no chance to investigate or respond to previous investigations. This is our turn now.' So I think we’ll see investigations. I think the American public will not find that particularly attractive. What they want is to seek progress on jobs, on the environment, on border security. Investigations sound much too much like inside baseball, and the Mueller commission report is out there waiting for that. So I think that Democrats will be foolish to devote too much of their priorities to investigating political enemies at this point."
