Attorney Alan Dershowitz said he likely won’t be joining President Donald Trump’s legal team if a second Senate impeachment trial is held, The Boston Globe reported Thursday.
Dershowitz represented Trump in the president’s Senate impeachment trial in 2020, in which he was acquitted of both charges of abuse of power and obstruction. Dershowitz reportedly would not consider joining his legal team for a second time, according to The Boston Globe.
“This is political theater, and I’m neither a politician or an actor, so I don’t see a role for a real lawyer to play in this show,†Dershowitz noted in a phone interview, according to The Boston Globe.

Kangaroo Court basically making Schumer Dean Wormer scream "Double Secret Probation You Orange Monster. "
The democrats have made a mockery of our democracy, and anyone of any integrity is going to avoid particpating in it.

People that have integrity need not worry about participating. There is no one in Congress that has an ounce of integrity.
The people of Russia have more representation in their Duma under a dictator than we do here in the USA.

I guess he's 'refusing to defend' Trump but isn't it more accurate to say, being a serious lawyer, he doesn't want to be associated with an even bigger farce than the last one Pelosi contrived?
I would urge Trump not to participate as well.

Dershowitz already stated, without reservation, that this impeachment effort is unconstitutional. I agree, Trump should just say this is unconstitutional BS and I'm not wasting my time with you lunatics. rrthree
