Alan Dershowitz, Harvard Law professor emeritus and member of President Donald Trump’s legal team, said Sunday that he believes House managers’ case fell short of the standard that is needed to convict President Donald Trump in the Senate’s impeachment trial.

“Even if the factual allegations are true—which are highly disputed and which the defense team will show contrary evidence—but even if true, they did not allege impeachable offenses. So there can’t be a constitutionally authorized impeachment,” Dershowitz, a high-profile criminal attorney, told “Fox News Sunday.”
