Alan Dershowitz, a legal scholar and former Harvard law professor, wrote in an article on Substack that the long awaited Durham Report exonerated Trump and documented an "[a]nti-Trump [d]ouble [s]tandard." He elaborated that "The Durham report documents the double standard employed by the Obama administration in favor of Hillary Clinton. No surprise there. But it also documents a special double standard employed by Democrats and some Republicans specifically against former President Donald Trump." 

Dershowitz explained that Durham's findings prove that the FBI operated on completely partisan standards when it decided to open an investigation on Trump's campaign based on poor information in comparsion to their decision to not open an investigation on Hillary Clinton's campaign.

Dershowitz writes that the fact-free manner in which the FBI operated toward Trump meant that they did not employ the usual steps before opening an investigation. They did not, for instance, employ "any of the standard analytical tools typically employed by the FBI in evaluating raw intelligence" which included "interviewing" relevant witnesses, reviewing its own intelligence databases, and other normal procedures. Durham admited that an unprofessional 'get Trump' bias pervaded many of the agents in the investigation. 

As Dershowitz observed, that anti-Trump bias was not exclusive to Democrats alone. He wrote, "This animus was not limited to partisan Democrats. Many Republicans and independents shared the view that Trump was uniquely dangerous to national security and that anything that could be done to prevent his presidency should be done, regardless of the evidence and lack thereof. This view continues today among many Trump haters. They don't need evidence of what he has done or not done. They know who he is! And that's enough to justify any means to "get" him."
