Dershowitz: Congress Violated Constitution Six Ways in Impeaching Trump
Instead of Trump having committed an impeachable offense, it is Congress that violated the Constitution multiple times, according to constitutional law professor Alan Dershowitz.

“We all hear that the president is not above the law,” Dershowitz explained, “but Congress is not above the law: When Congress impeached the president earlier this week, they committed six independent violations of the Constitution.” Dershowitz is not a conservative Republican, but rather a well-known liberal Democrat, providing additional weight to his opinion that Congress’ impeachment of Trump flies in the face of the provisions of the Constitution on the issue of impeachment of a president.
