Fox host says Trump's crimes WORSE than Clinton's to Kenn Starr's face In an explosive segment on Fox News, Chris Wallace confronted Ken Starr, the former independent counsel who investigated Bill Clinton, about the significant differences between the impeachments of Clinton and Donald Trump. The discussion revolved around the gravity of Trump's alleged crimes, suggesting that they are far more serious than those associated with Clinton's impeachment.

Key Points from the Discussion​

1. Context of Impeachment: Wallace highlighted that Clinton's impeachment primarily revolved around lying under oath about a personal matter. In contrast, he argued that Trump's alleged misconduct involves serious foreign policy implications, such as conditioning military aid on political favors, which has broader national security consequences.
2. Bipartisan Support and Historical Precedents: Starr claimed that the lack of bipartisan support for Trump’s impeachment makes it less valid. Wallace countered that impeachment has always been a partisan process, emphasizing historical examples where both parties have acted on impeachment without unanimous support.
3. Allegations of Criminal Activity: Wallace pointed out that the allegations against Trump include serious charges, such as using military funding as leverage for political gain, which he argued constitutes a national security threat. In stark contrast, he questioned how lying about a sexual encounter could be viewed as more impeachable than these allegations.
4. Consequences of Actions: The conversation underscored that Trump’s actions may invite foreign interference in American elections, endangering democratic integrity. Wallace expressed that if such actions are not impeachable, it raises concerns about what constitutes an impeachable offense in the future.
5. Republican Response and Accountability: Wallace criticized the Republican Party for what he views as their collective failure to hold Trump accountable. He stated that their unity around Trump does not imply innocence but rather indicates a fear of political retribution.
