Dershowitz: Left’s Russia-Trump obsession is like Stalin and KGB 

Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz explained in a radio interview Sunday morning that the obsession over Russia, and the left’s determination to pin President Donald Trump of wrongdoing in last year’s election, is a similar attitude that Russian dictator Joseph Stalin and the KBG had with opposition.

Since Trump won election last November, his political opponents have tried to accuse him and his campaign of colluding with Russian operatives to undermine Hillary Clinton’s campaign. However, no concrete evidence has surfaced to suggest either collusion or a crime.

According to Dershowitz, who is an ardent liberal and has been nearly his entire life, the left’s obsession over Trump-Russia “endangers democracy.”

Dershowitz explained: “The idea of trying to create crimes just because we disagree with [Trump] politically, and target him, really endangers democracy. It reminds me of what Lavrentiy Beria, the head of the KGB, said to Stalin: ‘Show me the man, and I will find you the crime.'”
