I saw some teens today. I asked them who represents them best. They told me that Gen Alpha and Zoomers are on Tiktok and Instagram demanding more and more clips of Alan Dershowitz. They can’t get enough of him. He is the voice of their generation. The voice America needs.

Then he fished out some sweets, shook my hand…
