The point is not that the Democrats "embraced" extremists. The Democrats ARE the extremists. The Democrat Party died on November 5, 2024, and it has been replaced by the anti-American Socialist Party. Their objective has been evident for four years or more: destroy the United States.

The failure to nominate Shapiro, who should not be confused with Senator Joseph Lieberman of blessed memory, which was resisted by the hard left of the party, was one of many errors by the Democrats that cost them the election. A party that remains committed to a far left ideology rooted in identity politics will be unable to attract voters in swing states win presidential elections

Again you subscribe to the Democrat angry talking point that Trump will seek vengeance against his political opponents. This is something the Democrats have done to Trump for the past 4 years to prevent him from taking the White House ever again. How did that work out? Democrats are always accusing others of what they are 100% guilty of doing themselves. Trump was quite clear, his success will be his vengeance. Last time he was president, he could have gone after Hillary, but didn't. Trump has better things to do, like improving the daily lives of the American people. You claim to be an independent but you are a Biden/Harris Democrat through and through, you believe all the vicious anti-trump rhetoric the failed Democrats put out there. Stick to the law, you will do much better.

Precisely! You’ve nailed it.

You've got it wrong. Prof. D did NOT say that Trump will seek vengeance against political opponents. Rather, he merely assumed that Trump will be *tempted* to do so as payback, having been targeted for politically-motivated lawfare himself, and maintained (correctly, IMO) that it would be in his best interest to refrain from doing so.

I hope he does or it will happen gain once the NAZIS again take power.

No. The tyrannical Democrats weaponized the justice system against their political opponents, ruining lives, stealing years from some who never did anything wrong, labeling citizens and voters over half the country as terrorists and treating us as such, arguing for us to be put into concentration camps and in some cases just killed outright. These people ARE terrorists, Mr Dershowitz and they MUST be held accountable to the maximum extent of the law, which in the cases of the treasonists who rigged and stole an election, and sold favors to foreign national enemies of America, the penalty for their high treason is prescribed in the Constitution: it is the death penalty. This is NOT retribution, it is LAW ENFORCEMENT and it is necessary for the healing of our country as well as to send a message to all potential tyrants that their criminal acts will not be tolerated. No quarter for treason.

I think that Trump is fully up to the task of reuniting the country "with malice toward none and with charity for all," given some of his recent statements. The hard part will be preventing future weaponization of the criminal justice system and holding those responsible accountable, without appearing vindictive or revengeful. I would recommend establishing a commission to look into it and make recommendations; the makeup of which should include Professor Dershowitz, Senator Ted Cruz (whom I hope will be our next attorney general), Congressman Jim Jordan, and Professor Jonathan Turley. Something definitely must be done, so that the next Democrat attorney general cannot turn out to be the reincarnation of Levrentiy Beria.

No way, root out the lawless, PLEASE! Otherwise individuals will have to take it upon themselves if there is no justice for criminal actives.

There needs to be accountability for those in government who broke the laws and weaponized the government against ordinary citizens. They have shown time after time when they get control of the government and its agencies that they can abuse the system. This has to stop. Not through turn the other cheek, but those consequences.

We will not look the other way any longer. That time has long passed. Not saying we should alienate and divide the country, but a day of accountability must come in order to prevent bad actors from continuing to be bad actors in the future. The American people have had enough and we want government accountability. Yes, that means those who abused their office need to go to jail.

They lied, cheated, stole, and bankrupted the country for their own ends. This is a clear mandate to clean house and have accountability once and for all. I say this regardless of political party affiliation. Both Democrats and Republicans have abused their roles as public servants and must be held accountable.

Kamala Harris crashed to a landslide defeat because Democrats ARE extremists.

I respect Alan's desire to be above our enemies. But I don't think it will achieve what he wants it to.

Trump must appoint a highly loyal and relatively partisan AG. And then DOJ should systematically go after the panoply of far-Left NGOs and groups and major donors that have spent the last 9 years using the power of government to censor, bankrupt, harass, imprison, and even try to kill Trump and anyone who loudly supports him.

We do this for 2 reasons:

1) Because "no one is above the law". Even Joe and Jim Biden. While it very much appears that the Biden family used the office of the vice-presidency to enrich its own members, I will allow DOJ prosecutors to make the final decision whether to charge them with corruption, money laundering, or FARA violations.

2) The Democrats are so convinced of their own holiness and righteousness and that their opponents are evil incarnate that they forgot why lawfare is dangerous. Throwing some of Biden's senior advisors in prison will demonstrate that we can play the same game. Fear is the only way to make them stop.

There should obviously be policy changes that help our side and hurt the progressives. But we HAVE to use lawfare (even though we don't like it) to inflict some pain on them or no Republican officeholder will ever be safe again.

To the very esteemed Constitutional scholar, professor and successful trail lawyer and my lonsman Professor Dersh - the statement: "Many voters cast their ballots against the opposing candidate rather than for the candidate for whom they reluctantly voted" may not be entirely accurate - but can be liberally applied in every election in which we put a clothes pin on our nose and take a barf bag iinto the polling booth to vote, but we chose a warrior with grit, tenacity, standards and ethics, as well as promised made promises filled track record in life and the first time running for any political office, the most coveted elected office in the history of humanity, POTUS, we chose clearly as there was only one clear choice and obviously those who voted for the Heels Up Commie Cackling Kamalala who clearly said she would not change one thing from the regime that installed her and Dementia Quid-Pro-Joe Briben like a deer in the headlights too dumb to get outta the way and that path would take us to road kill with her! We're not voting for personality but clearly effectiveness on the domestic and world stage! Proving most humans are not frogs in a pot of water on the stove that will be cooked gradually as the heat is turned up - most humans jump out of that pot and see who is turning up the heat - sadly my lonsman kin in nazzi Germany did not jump out in time! October 7, 2023 Israel proved that woke liberalism is letting the enemies in and back to the right and righteous Never Again!

Hippies in the 1960's found that tuning out and dropping LSD and free love is not sustainable, the same with young Israelis who found out the hard way, that love is great but letting your guard down is not! Complacency only lets in the devil as we found out with the pLandemic that lead way to rigging and stealing the 2020 election - Thank YHVH that we woke up in time for 2024's election!

I wonder if there are enough centrist/moderate Democrats to claw back their party from the extremists. My parents were Yellow Dog Union Member Democrats, and I am sure they would be horrified at the antics of today's party. But they are of an older generation that has mostly moved off from the stage. Can the Dems regain their balance? I sure don't see any leaders with the cachet or gravitas to pull others into a group powerful enough to bring the party to its senses.

Obama sneaked through. Now the plan is to prevent any person of color, especially a black person, from ever being elected as President of the United States. How? By any means necessary, even if that involves voting for the white candidate of the opposing party, regardless of how disgraced that white candidate may be.

Harris wasn’t wanted in 2020 and she wasn’t wanted in 2024. There’s nothing likable about her, her cackle or her word salads.

Good piece. I also hope that Trump can show grace and not pursue the endless lawfare that the Dems have. I would love to see Trump become the great uniter for our country which is what we need and would cement a great legacy for him

It's not retribution when someone commits crimes. It's justice for anyone in any party. And where are the 300000 missing kids ?

Harris lost because she’s inauthentic. Ersatz. There’s no there there.
