Dr. Alan Chartock's Morning Commentary

WAMC Northeast Public Radio | By Alan Chartock
Published January 30, 2020 at 7:58 AM EST

WAMC's Dr. Alan Chartock discusses Joe Donahue's return to The Roundtable, and the first day of written questions from Senators in President Trump's impeachment trial. Attorney Alan Dershowitz argued President Trump's reelection is in the national interest, and therefore any quid pro quo to that end is not impeachable. 

Dr. Chartock also comments on his latest Roundtable interview with New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, and considers whether Chief Justice John Roberts will have to break a tie in Friday's Senate vote over witnesses in the impeachment trial.
