Seth Abramson and Jeffrey Toobin see this. The latter two were students of Dersho(idiot)'s and have been frequently set him straight in a most embarrassing manner. Tribe surely will.

The 2nd floor balcony when I saw this last night. I don’t understand how he or Rudy continue to get print space when they so obviously lie.

Not in the Constitution.

No existing case law.

Conflict of Interest: USSC oversees the "trial" of impeachment and can't rule on itself.

Things can change so quickly, their backup plans have contingency plans, I'm sure of it.

This scenario would never happen. The House would investigate clearly defined crimes, and the Senate trial would be based on those crimes.
I think Dershowitz is imagining some preposterous action where Congress went after a President for something that clearly isn’t, or wasn’t, illegal. Like a Congress full of anti-abortion fanatics who had just pushed through a constitutional amendment outlawing abortion impeaching because they discovered the President had had an abortion when she was younger. But none of this makes sense. Dershowitz and Trump are just trying to confuse the issue as usual.
