Alan Dershowitz is 87 years old, a Harvard Law professor emeritus, and one of the most recognized legal minds in America. He has been a registered Democrat since he was 14 years old — over 70 years. In a recent podcast interview, Dershowitz made his position unmistakable. “I’ve been a Democrat for 70 years. I now am strongly opposed to that party. I want them defeated in every single election,” he said. “I want to see Democrats lose control of the House and lose control of the Senate and lose control of the presidency because I am scared of them. They are against America, they are against Israel, they are against the Jews.”  Dershowitz compared the current climate in American universities to Berlin in 1932 — before Hitler’s rise to power — citing the turn against Jewish students and the demonization of Israel. “I feel I am one of the few people standing up against my old party,” he said.  He has announced he will campaign actively for Republicans in the 2026 midterms — not because he embraces the Republican agenda, but because the alternative terrifies him. “I’m totally frightened if the Democrats were to gain control,” he told Newsmax, warning of what he described as a new McCarthyism targeting political opponents.  Wikipedia now lists his party affiliation as Republican — after over six decades as a Democrat.  When a man who has spent his entire adult life on one side of the political divide looks at where his party has gone and says he is scared of it — that is worth stopping to consider. Proverbs 14:12 says, “There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.” Not every road that starts with good intentions stays on a good path. Dershowitz watched a party he loved for 70 years go somewhere he no longer recognizes. What do you think — is the Democratic Party of today the same party it was 20 years ago?
