Of course Trump hires nefarious attorneys to defend him
It should be no surprise that a president who is tone deaf to public perception, a president who cares only about his base, a president who has defended those accused of the abuse of women, has named Kenneth Starr and Alan Dershowitz to his impeachment defense team.
Starr was separated from his position as Chancellor of Baylor University after it was determined that he had mishandled the investigation of sexual assaults at the school.
Alan Dershowitz has defended notorious figures of history, was a good friend of the loathsome, late Jeffrey Epstein until his death, and has been accused by one of Epstein’s victims of being a beneficiary of his scheme to lure underage females into providing sexual services.
The president is certainly entitled to choose whomever he wishes to represent him. His poor judgment in selecting famed, but tainted attorneys for his impeachment defense is noted with disgust by those of us who have not fallen into the Trump orbit.
