Alan Dershowitz appeared on Saturday's edition of FOX & Friends and talked about what we have learned one year into the Trump presidency. Dershowitz said if Trump "did more and said less" he would "become a very important figure in American history."



Dershowitz also made the argument that the power to shut down the government should be taken away from Congress. He said "the children" have "abused their power."



On the appointment of Robert Mueller to helm the Trump-Russia probe, Dershowitz called it a "big mistake" as "we have learned nothing."



"We've learned the lesson that the appointment of a special counsel was a big mistake," the legal eagle said. "We've learned nothing, either because there is nothing or it's behind closed doors. There should have been an independent commission -- bipartisan, nonpartisan -- in order to learn how the Russians tried to manipulate this election and to prevent them from doing it in the future."
