Alan Dershowitz: Comparing Trumps Summit Performance to Kristallnacht is a Form of Holocaust Denial

Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz blasted critics of President Donald Trump who have compared his performance at the Helsinki summit alongside Russian President Vladimir Putin to the Holocaust.
Dershowitz began by dismissing those who called Trump treasonous, telling Hannity guest host Judge Jeanine Pirro that treason consists only in levying war against the United States or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.
You cant just throw that term around, Dershowitz insisted. Its the only crime defined specifically in the Constitution.
But before moving on, he took pundits to task who have invoked the Holocaust, particularly MSNBC contributor Jill Wise-Banks for comparing Trumps remarks at Mondays press conference to Kristallnacht.
