Alan Dershowitz seeks wife's permission to represent Trump in 14th Amendment case

Attorney Alan Dershowitz said he would be "very, very tempted" to represent former President Donald Trump after the Colorado Supreme Court barred him from the state's 2024 ballot.

Dershowitz told conservative podcast host Steve Bannon that disqualifying Trump for inciting an insurrection would undermine faith in elections.

"If this kind of craziness is allowed to go forward with individual states disqualifying Trump off the ballot — if he loses, he's not going to accept that loss," he insisted. "This is about the worst, most dangerous, and unconstitutional decision I've read in my 60 years of teaching and practicing criminal law."

The attorney has previously represented Trump in impeachment hearings and said he would be likely to do so again.

"I would be very, very tempted, and I'd have to listen to my wife on that one, because you can't imagine how our lives have been disrupted by the fact that I represented President Trump on a constitutional ground," he said. "I was trying to follow the footsteps of John Adams, who represented the Boston Massacre people, but it totally disrupted our life, the life of my family, and every other way."

"I would do it in a minute, but I have to consult with my family before I would put them through again the kind of McCarthyism that they've been put through, because I exercised a Sixth Amendment right and defended somebody against serious charges," he added.
