WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump’s impeachment defense team turned over its presentation on Monday to former independent counsel Ken Starr, who, in an ironic turn, argued that Congress tries to impeach presidents too often. “Like war, impeachment is hell,” Starr told senators during the second week of Trump’s impeachment trial. “The Senate is being called to sit as the high court of impeachment all too frequently,” Starr said Monday during his hourlong presentation. Democrats were flabbergasted that Trump’s defense team put Starr at the lectern to decry the frequency of impeachment. Graham, elected to the Senate in 2002, now is one of the most vocal critics of Trump’s impeachment, arguing it is invalid.
