| | | What's your reaction to Alan Dershowitz and Ken Starr being officially part of President Trump's impeachment defence team?

Hello!
Well now, I know this one for you.
First of all, the common denominator is Fox News and Jeffrey Epstein. Allow me to explain.
Alan Dershowitz was one of sex predator Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyers and also a friend of Epstein. Dershowitz has said that yes, he got a massage at Epstein’s mansion, but “I kept my underwear on during the massage.” He has been a prominent Trump defender on television. miamiherald.com
Speaking of that massage Dershowitz is talking about, here’s a video of him explaining that, but fair warning it’s very disturbing and cringey:
Isn’t that just sweet and respectful the way he talks about a 15-year-old girl at the time that was forced to perform sexual acts against her will for a convicted sex offender…
Ken Starr is obviously most famous from spending the 1990s turning an investigation into a real estate transaction into impeaching Bill Clinton for a sexual relationship. As CNN’s Elie Honig tweeted, “Now House Managers can point across the well and say: ‘There’s the same guy who interviewed @MonicaLewinsky’s ex-boyfriends, WH window washers and Kathleen Willey’s dentist. Now he doesn’t want us to hear from Bolton and Mulvaney.’” Elie Honig (@eliehonig) | Twitter
During that time, Trump had some strong feelings about Starr, telling Matt Lauer that “I think Ken Starr's a lunatic. I really think that Ken Starr is a disaster.”Just listen for yourself:

But Starr has been … wait for it … a prominent Trump defender on television.
True story: Starr was also one of sex predator Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyers. Oh, and he lost his job as president of Baylor University after accusations that he mishandled sexual assault allegations against football players.
Here’s the link to that egregious story: Ken Starr was ousted as president of Baylor University after school was rocked by sexual assault scandals
To conclude: Ken Starr & Alan Dershowitz are going all in on Donald Trump and all three of them are Horcruxes for Jeffrey Epstein. People should better start referring to Trump's legal team as Jeffrey Epstein's legal team to avoid confusion about what's going on here.
I guess it’s totally normal for the President of the United States to name two attorneys who worked for pedophile Jeffrey Epstein to his Senate impeachment defense team, isn’t it? It’s like a hit parade of the most awful people he could find.
Fun fact: Ken Starr defending one of the most impeachable offenses in history after prosecuting one of the least with zero self-reflection and no sense of irony really encapsulates the GOP’s party over country ethos. Just saying… Dan Pfeiffer (@danpfeiffer) | Twitter
So you know, I guess Trump was thinking about this idiom when he hired both Starr and Dershowitz. Birds of a feather flock together…
