With an order to pay CNN’s attorneys fees. THAT would make him look really intellectual and scholarly.

well there must be some reason that nobody is hiring him to be their lawyer and no law school would let him get within 500 yards of their college students, it must be that CNN said he was crazy. however, CNN kinda brought this on themselves when they settled with that smug kid nick sandmann. now every trumper that needs money is gonna sue them. obviously dersh needs money because nobody is gonna hire him and his hush money bill is probably a pretty hefty sum every month

The only thing that would make a quid pro quo unlawful is if the quo were somehow illegal.

So, if I bribe the president to pardon me for a federal crime, that's not illegal because the "quo," a pardon, is a lawful action of the presidency?

How does that statement not make it look like Dersh has lost his mind?

I believe every right-thinking America wants to sue CNN for showing any Alan Dershowitz at all.

I think they used quid pro quo as way of trying to clean up was really Trump doing extortion on the Ukraine president.

Hadn't thought of that, but I bet it is a pretty hefty sum every month.

It's the spanking brand new, Lamar Alexander Doctrine, espoused by same as his reason to acquit DJT from impeachment. To wit: IF the POTUS believes (subjective appraisal) that it it is in the best interests of the US that he be reelected, then any means necessary that he needs to employ to accomplish reelection, including extortion of a foreign government to obtain damaging information against his political opponent, is perfectly OK.

Of course "spying" on a political opponent on behalf of the POTUS' chosen successor, is the worst imaginable crime in the entire history of crime. i.e., The Donald trump Doctrine
