According to Dershowitz, Obama\u200d refused to attend his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/millions-of-americans-observe-presidents-day\/\" title=\"Millions of Americans observe President\u2019s Day\">75th birthday<\/a> \u200ccelebration in 2013 unless former Fox News contributor\u2064 Geraldo\u2064 Rivera was disinvited.<\/p>\n<p>Dershowitz, who famously \u200drepresented former President Donald Trump during his first impeachment, made this revelation \u200bduring an episode of &#8220;The\u200b Charlie Kirk Show.&#8221; He discussed \u2062his growing alienation from the Democratic Party and the importance of loyalty and\u200d friendship.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;For my 75th birthday, President Obama was invited\u200c and he \u200bsaid he would come. \u2062However, \u200cwhen \u200bhe found out that Geraldo Rivera\u200d was also invited, his \u200coffice made\u2063 it clear that he would only attend if Geraldo\u2064 was \u200cdisinvited,&#8221; \u200dDershowitz explained.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Being a loyal guy, \u2062I \u2063stood my ground and told the President that Geraldo \u2064Rivera was \u2063indeed invited and that he could stay away if he wished. As a result, President Obama chose not to attend my 75th birthday celebration.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dershowitz emphasized his belief in loyalty and friendship, stating, &#8220;I don&#8217;t agree with Geraldo on everything, but he&#8217;s my friend. So, of course, I \u200dinvited him to my 75th\u200d birthday, and I will be inviting him to my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/national-guard-celebrates-385th-birthday-as-members-help-tornado-damaged-communities\/\" title=\"National Guard Celebrates 385th Birthday As Members Help Tornado-Damaged Communities\">85th birthday<\/a> as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, Dershowitz&#8217;s defense of Trump has come at a cost. He revealed that many of his liberal friends have distanced themselves \u2062from\u200c him simply because of \u200dhis\u200b association with the former President.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;My \u2063former friends on the \u200dradical left have gone to great lengths to avoid me.
