Ken Starr praises Bill Clinton, warns against the "radical populism" of Donald Trump
An unlikely voice recently bemoaned the decline of civility in presidential politics, warned that “deep anger” was fueling an “almost radical populism” and sang the praises of former President Bill Clinton — particularly his “redemptive” years of philanthropic work since leaving the White House.

“There are certain tragic dimensions which we all lament,” Mr. Starr said in a panel discussion on the presidency at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.
“That having been said, the idea of this redemptive process afterwards, we have certainly seen that powerfully” in Mr. Clinton’s post-presidency, he continued, adding, “President Carter set a very high standard, which President Clinton clearly continues to follow.”
He called Mr. Clinton “the most gifted politician of the baby boomer generation.”

He did enormous damage to the lives of many people in the Clinton administration, not to mention Clinton himself and Monica Lewinsky. I don't condone Clinton's sexual misbehavior, but that doesn't excuse the witch hunt that Starr went on, and what he did to Susan McDougal. What a pompous, self-righteous twit!
