Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz on Monday said President Trump was within his rights as commander in chief when he fired former FBI director James Comey, and warned Democrats trying to take him down on obstruction of justice charges that they won't succeed.
"You cannot charge a president with obstruction of justice for exercising his constitutional power to fire Comey and his constitutional authority to tell the Justice Department who to investigate, who not to investigate. That's what Thomas Jefferson did, that's what Lincoln did, that's what Roosevelt did.
We have precedents that clearly establish that," Dershowitz told Fox News' "Fox and Friends" Monday morning.

Dershowitz is correct. The problem however is the law is irrelevant to those on the left. And if they are in positions of power they IGNORE IT. If charges are filed and heard before an Obama/Clinton appointed commie judge then what the law says will be ignored. We haven't been a nation governed by law for decades. We are a nation ruled by emotion, greed and power lust.
