Overview
Ā
Alan Dershowitz has been called āone of the most prominent and consistent defenders of civil liberties in Americaā byĀ PoliticoĀ and āthe nationās most peripatetic civil liberties lawyer and one of its most distinguished defenders of individual rightsā byĀ Newsweek.
Ā
Get Trump makes clear that unconstitutional efforts to stop Trump from retaking the presidency challenge the very foundations of our liberty: due process, right to counsel, and free speech. Those who justify these dangerous departures from the rule of law argue that the threat posed by a second Trump presidency is ādifferentā and āimmediate,ā while the departures from constitutional norms are longer term and more abstract.
Ā
Dershowitz explains that defenders of Trumpās constitutional rightsāeven those like him who oppose Trump politicallyāare sought to be silenced; their free speech rights attacked, their integrity questioned, and their careers threatened. Much of the media substitutes advocacy against Trump for objective reporting, while many in academia petition and propagandize against rights they previously valuedāall in the interest of getting Trump.
Ā
The essence of justice is that it must be equally applicable to all, Dershowitz notes. No one is above the law but digging to find crimes in order to influence an election does not constitute the equal application of the law. In order to assure equal application in comparable situations, he proposes two criteria for indicting a likely candidate of the opposing party: the Richard Nixon standard and the Hillary Clinton standardāand most recently, the Joe Biden standard.
Ā
Get Trump warns that regardless of whether this anti-democratic effort to stop Trump from running succeeds or fails, it is likely to create dangerous precedents that will lie around like loaded weapons ready to be deployed against other controversial candidates, officials, or citizens about whom it can be argued that the danger they pose āis different.ā
