The Harvard professor said explicitly that a President [can] be impeached for criminal acts.” — PolitiTweet.org

The Wall Street Journal said the following: "The media claims[s] that defense lawyer Alan Dershowitz said a President can do anything to further his re-election as long as he thinks it is in the national interest. This isn’t what he said. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org

POTUS cannot commit criminal conduct, regardless of motive. See attachment. https://t.co/8Ah8gdUO5b — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

The House Managers in their closing argument persist in their deliberate lies, claiming again that I argued that a president can do anything — even commit crimes— if he believes his election is in the public interest. That is a willful lie, as watching my answer will prove. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

But that accusation is incompatible with Mr. Dershowitz’ main argument: that and impeachable “high crime and misdem… https://t.co/zd8GrV56fb — PolitiTweet.org

Then he joins the distortion. https://t.co/8Ah8gecptL — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

Watch my answer that the media mischaracterizes as saying a president can do anything illegal as long as he is motivated by a desire to be re-elected. I don’t say that and Schiff doesn’t say I said it—until the media deliberately distorted my answer. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

I NEVER said in my argument or in answers that a president can do “anything” as long as his motive was re-election. Totally made up lie by Schiff and media. See for yourself. https://t.co/CZV7G4UG0X — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

Watch my senate speech and hear me repeatedly say that a president CAN be impeached if he commits crimes or criminal -like conduct— even if his motive was to help his reeelection. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org

The American public would be informed better by a debate than by childish epithets such as those that are being hurled at me by partisan pundits, academics and politicians. Please respond if you accept. — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

Let’s elevate the quality of the dialogue and avoid ad hominems.The issues are too important to trivialize. The debate could be live or on TV. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

I challenge my critics – especially those who are deliberately misinterpreting my arguments – to a Lincoln/Douglas-type town hall debate in which name calling is prohibited and intellectual arguments must be responded to with other intellectual arguments. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org

A good motive does not justify criminal behavior. But a mixed motive should not turn perfectly legal conduct into an impeachable crime, as the Manager’s theory would. Please answer my argument, not Schumer’s distortion of it. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s what Schiff said. Under that “standard" we would have no presidents. Please respond to my actual arguments not the media and partisan characterization of them. — PolitiTweet.org

Alan Dershowitz @AlanDersh

Under the House Managers quid pro quo theory — to which I was responding — any president who took any action with the mixed motive to promote the national interest and ALSO to promote his re-election interests, would be impeachable. (MTC) — PolitiTweet.org
