Alan Dershowitz: SCOTUS ‘would almost certainly reverse the conviction’ in Trump trial
Harvard Law School Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz slammed Democrats over the Trump hush money trial, saying New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg “made up a crime out of whole cloth” to bring a case against former President Donald Trump. He cautioned that “the real loser is the American public” because of the precedent set by this case, and predicted that the judge would sentence Trump to time in prison, but would suspend the sentence instead of actually sending the former president to jail. Dershowitz also gave his perspective on Trump’s chances on appeal, saying the Supreme Court would probably not get the case until after the 2024 election, but they would most likely reverse the conviction.
