Combine that with the fact that someone commiting adultery should be disqualifying for them becoming president.
Look, I get that all the social norms have been completely ground to dust, but character does in fact matter. We should want a good person who refuses to cheat on their wife as a leader.
Reducing this to just a fun fling because you like the guy is the same thing the hypocrites who support Trump and all of his scandals do.
If he’s willing to betray his wife for a quicky from an intern, why would I trust him with anything else? For the person who’s leading the entire nation the bar should be higher.
Also not to mention that he was 49 and she was 22. If this was anyone less “likeable” than Bill we’d all be calling him an absolute creep. He was pushing 50, and she could barely drink. And he was her boss.
Partially. It was really “Republicans went digging for some dirt and he lied about fucking his secretary during a deposition, so let’s fuck him up over it”. It then became about bashing Monica cause misogyny.
Yeah. The whole reason the Amanda Knox series happened is because Monika Lewinsky has been starting this documentary series where she tries to help victims in situations where publicity ruined their image and give them a chance to tell their story.
She could not give full consent given the power imbalance. She does regret her role. Please consider looking into how she has reframed her experience since the #metoo movement.
Such a silly scandal. Let people enjoy sex. Sure he was technically her boss but it was fully consensual and neither side regrets it.
Compare to some recent American presidents…
Him being her boss is the scandal part. It’s about power imbalance. There is no such thing as “consent” in this situation.

And he wasn’t even fucking satan.
Not that I’m defending him but I imagine they hadve an open relationship
In 1997? From Arkansas? That seems… exceptionally unlikely. Or, at least far far less likely than that he was just cheating.
Having to bang only Hillary is a punishment deserved by almost nobody.

Are you arguing Clinton raped Lewinski?
Yeah. The whole reason the Amanda Knox series happened is because Monika Lewinsky has been starting this documentary series where she tries to help victims in situations where publicity ruined their image and give them a chance to tell their story.
What a fantastic way to turn an image around.
“I did not have sexual relations with that woman” - lying means nothing?
The definition of ‘sexual relations’ was a multi year legal debate.
What the definition of ‘is’ was took several months.
This smells like blue-no-matter-who mental gymnastics.
