Lawyer Alan Dershowitz bashed his former student Sen. Ted Cruz on Wednesday, calling his questioning of Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson"absurd."
“Tell me, does that same principle apply to other protected characteristics?” Cruz asked Jackson on Wednesday. “For example, I am a Hispanic man. Could I decide I was an Asian man and challenge Harvard’s discrimination because of that decision?” Alan Dershowitz says he is very disappointed in his former student Ted Cruz’ questions of Judge Jackson today, which he called “bigotry.” pic.twitter.
Dershowitz also said he hoped Cruz didn't learn his questioning methodology from him at Harvard, adding that it would be"bigotry" to"discriminate against somebody who changed genders if they wanted to serve as a judge."
