Alan Dershowitz: I Warned Hillary About ‘Bigoted' Sid Blumenthal
[Daily Caller] Retired Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz says he has personally warned the Clintons about the toxic influence of adviser Sidney Blumenthal.

Dershowitz revealed his warning about Blumenthal during the first episode of "The Jamie Weinstein Show" podcast, where he also opened up about his relationship with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, the state of American politics and the lessons he learned over his successful career.

Though he has endorsed Clinton for president, Dershowitz spoke about the threat he believes the "repressive" left poses to the Democratic Party.

"You call them progressive, I call them repressive," Dershowitz said. "There’s nothing progressive about that fringe. They want to stop free speech on campus, they don’t want to hear opposing ideas that are different from theirs, they create this concept of intersectionality, which is a code word for anti-Semitism."

Asked whether he worries that one the the leaders of the "repressive" left, anti-Israel author Max Blumenthal, is the son of top Hillary Clinton adviser Sidney Blumenthal, Dershowitz said he was deeply concerned about it.

"It is worrisome to me," he said. "What’s worrisome to me is that Sidney Blumenthal circulated his son’s [Max’s] writings, despicable writings. You know, they [the Trump campaign] wouldn’t use the words to attack David Duke. I will use those words to attack [Max] Blumenthal. He is a despicable anti-Semite and a horrible person and he should be marginalized completely. "

#1 Is this the same guy who represented celebrity Claus von Bülow (murder trial of his wife), O.J. Simpson (murder trial of his wife, Nicole and her friend), and WJC's buddy, billionaire Jeffrey Epstein (sex with minors (a.k.a. pedophilia) at his Caribbean island hide-away)? In it for the money?

#2 Got to agree with him on some of the things he says. If I were a murderer I wouldn't hire him because he endorsed Hillary. I would assume he suffers from bad judgement.

#3 None so blind... And who, Professor, will protect us from the bigotries of Hillary Clinton, bigotries which led her to find the open prejudices of both Mr. Blumenthals to be perfectly acceptable? If you had yourself on the stand, sirrah, you would tear yourself to pieces. There is no place in Hillary Clinton's party for Zionists anymore, nor individual opinion; but as long as she wins, that thought will not trouble her.

And if she loses, she will blame it on the good professor and his fellows, whether Jewish or otherwise.

#4 ...I'm sure it will be along the lines of 'a second set of keys to the strawberry locker'.
