You've never heard of someone misspeaking before? It happens all the time. He cleared it up.

He probably wants to use them to take out families seeking asylum at the southern border

The sense of things that really exists in the minds of Trump supporters might be more of a characterization of voter sentiment than party retribution.
A recent poll, done by a fairly reliable but definitely non-establishment organization, about Rumney's support in Utah, purported that Rummy couldn't win Dogcatcher in downtown SLC.
voters in Maine also have shifted to being more against the Impeachment drive.
He backtracks, and you accept it. Both were entirely expected.
In prepared speeches before the US senate?

Oh right. He probably meant to say that president's don't have to obey laws. That makes perfect sense. This couldn't possibly be yet another example of political rivals taking a quote out of context and then running with the idea that the opposition's words mean what the listener (rather than the speaker) wants them to mean.
It was taken out of context.
What Dershowitz really said was this:
“If, hypothetically, a lawyer were to make the following argument, we would all agree that he is an incompetent buffoon: if a president does something which he believes will help him get elected, in the public interest, that cannot be the kind of quid pro quo that results in impeachment“
You see, context matters!
Come on, dude. Deep in your heart and not so deep in your brain, these cognitive inconsistencies have to be eating you up. Come back to earth and reclaim your independent thinking.
Dershowitz has seriously soiled his reputation. Not quite bad as Rudy. When IMPOTUS is out of power these guys will live under rocks. It is going to be ugly because all these guys are cowards who really hate Donny. Unlike Bush2, who was not competent but likable, respectful, and a decent human being. Trump’s rats will be scurrying for cover. I won’t be feeling sorry for them.

Yeah, let's not pay any attention to what Dershowitz claims he meant. Let's listen instead to what CNN claims he meant. That makes perfect sense.

Maybe you ought to take a look at the actual quote in context before you make a claim that is so easy to refute.

right? Not only has this been a whole joke to her but now she’s given her Democratic opponent (whoever that might be) amazing ammo to use against her in the general. Of course, maybe she doesn’t fear that? Maybe her biggest fear is appearing not Trumpy enough to avoid being wiped out in a primary challenge by a pro Trump nutjob?
Or maybe she’s just a moron? Here’s her ad that helped her get elected in the first place:

Also, Ernst gives away the game by saying the quiet part out loud. She’s going to impeach Biden for a Quid Pro Quo. Because that’s corrupt and wrong
which is funny, didn’t we just hear that this type of behavior was fine? Even if he and Hunter were both enriching each other with Quid Pro Quos from Ukraine, wouldn’t Biden be able do that? After all, didn’t Ernst and the GOP just recently argue that a president can do anything he wants?
so Donald can enrich himself and it’s fine but the Bidens can’t because that would be wrong? Hmmmm

The funny thing is, Joe Biden's work in Ukraine was in complete accordance with the GOP at that time. It's just bad faith all the way down with these people.

I wonder how far you could take Dershowitz's argument about reelection being in the public interest. Does that same standard apply to political parties seeking majorities? Surely the Democrats believe holding both houses of congress to be in the public interest. Would it be OK for them to call on other countries to investigate their political rivals, with the threat that they'll withhold votes for aid to those countries if they don't comply?
