Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz has “never seen a weaker indictment,” but he told Newsmax that “there’s no chance of a fair trial or dismissal” for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against former President Donald Trump.

“It’s a scandal; it’s a shame,” Dershowitz, a self-proclaimed liberal Democrat who has been ostracized for using the law to defend Trump, told Sunday’s “The Gorka Reality Check.” “For somebody who has devoted himself to the law — as I have so many years and, as you say, lost so many friends over my attempt to, … as a matter of principle, defend the Constitution — I am just appalled.

“And I’m appalled that so many good lawyers in his office — and I know some of them; they’re former students and friends — went along with this travesty of justice.”

Trump was arraigned this week on 34 counts of falsifying business records, but the prosecutorial overreach, if not misconduct, will stand for now, with Dec. 4 the next court date, Dershowitz lamented to host Sebastian Gorka.

“There’s no chance of a fair trial or dismissal,” Dershowitz continued. “No judge who’s elected in New York is ever going to allow himself to have the fingers of the public pointed it at him, saying, ‘This is the judge who freed everybody.’

“I think the reason they put it off in December [is] because they know they have such an extraordinarily weak case. I’ve never seen a case put off so long. They probably are hoping that there will be indictments against him, perhaps in Georgia, or in Florida, or in Washington, D.C., and thus take the focus off him.”

For Dershowitz, arguably the most renowned constitutional law expert of our lifetime
