Trump Georgia indictments: let The Dersh explain

Remember Alan Dershowitz fought for Al Gore in the 2000 contested election Gore v Bush. He’s not a partisan. As is almost everyone else, including the media like CNN. Where we watched last night the reporting of the new indictment and the news anchors, the impartial folks just reporting the news, couldn’t hide their glee. We even had one anchor asking Van Jones “will it help” to have the Georgia trial televised, as in help their side to make Trump look even more guilty. And Van agreed, yes it would help. 

I’d say here  “they’re saying the quiet part out loud” except there’s no “quiet part” any more. They’re not bothering to hide that this is all a political show, to keep Trump out of the White House, not by popular votes but by lawfare. 

Just as Hillary Clinton didn’t bother to hide her glee, cackling along loudly with Rachel Maddow in MSNBC.

No hiding the purely partisan politics in all these indictments. It’s gross, if you think about it for more than a second. And get past TDS.
