President Trump is adding three seasoned lawyers to his impeachment legal defense team, the White House confirmed, including Kenneth Starr, the hard-charging prosecutor whose work led to President Bill Clinton's impeachment.
Alan Dershowitz, the constitutional lawyer, and Robert Ray, Starr's successor at the Office of Independent Counsel during the Clinton administration, are also joining the team, White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said in a statement.The three are expected to join a legal team headed by White House counsel Pat Cipollone and outside attorney Jay Sekulow, who are still expected to deliver statements on the President's behalf on the Senate floor.
"I will go into the history of the formulation in the Constitution and the history of how these words came to be and leave it to others to argue the facts, to make strategic decisions about witnesses. That's not within my jurisdiction."Dershowitz referred to himself as an"advocate against impeachment."Starr, Dershowitz and Ray are expected to play a constitutional and historic role during the proceedings to support Cipollone and Sekulow.
