The difference between Monica and Bill was that Monica only lied to cover for Bill but she was truthful about everything when it came to her mistakes. Bill never really took any responsibility and he would’ve lied endlessly if there hadn’t been proof. He was saying she was a crazy stalker. I knew then that she was going to come out of it and live a successful life.
@Proper She was a young lady with a crush on the most powerful man in the world who was charismatic and experienced. If she hadn't had that dress, he would've had everyone believe that she was just crazy and that's cruel. He was a good president but he was a severely flawed man.
@@recoveryrocks1 There is no obsession on my part. Monica Lewinsky has lost weight and it was her choice to do that. She looks prettier now than she did years ago when she was involved in that scandal with Bill Clinton.
Only because she’s a woman so they have to get her appearance into the story.. they never called bill ugly (Also beauty is subjective and has nothing to do with weight)
The parents of Monica Lewinsky deserve a great deal of credit for possessing the compassion, sympathy, and empathy, that Monica speaks about. They suffered with her but had the strength and intelligence to support and guide her back to a more manageable life. A measure of Monica's maturity and mental health is the credit that she gives to her parents, in acknowledging their role in her survival and recovery. She deserves credit for doing so, and by doing so. she has "honored her father and mother". Monica Lewinsky has grown into a healthy, mature adult, who can now help others survive bullying and "Shame". She is an articulate activist, helping to highlight this problem, and to discourage the shaming of others worldwide. She has redeemed herself.
I know it's easy to claim so now - but I did vehemently recoil at the time at how badly Monica Lewinsky was treated /referred to by both the press and regular folk. It was conflicting for me as I was an avid Clinton supporter, and found it difficult to accept that he had acted so despicably. I'm so very glad Lewinsky has emerged from all this so well - kudos to her indeed! 👏
A lot of people in the media and celebrities, left-wing liberals notably, all backed Clinton and attacked Monica. Christopher Hitchens was one of the few critics who supported her and believed her. One of his best legacies.
Monica is such an intelligent, beautiful woman. I honestly admire her for being able walk through that storm and not only make it out alive, but come out thriving all these years later. Let's be honest, most women would be mortified if the sexual exploits of their 20s were made public. Clinton used his position of power to take advantage of her. Was she wrong for pursuing a married man? Yes. Was he wrong for abusing his power & being unfaithful? Yes. But Monica deserves to be remembered for so much more than 1 mistake that was made over 20 years ago.
In 1992, I wrote extensively about what would become the Lewinsky scandal. I included Linda Tripp and the eventual dress turnover to the FBI that had the stains. Again, this was 1992.
Do YOU see her as the victim? Try this: She knew about his affairs and weakness for women and... Now she is the lecturer on abuse and mobbing. Great trick. Read what I wrote above. Beauty and intelligence are a matter of taste. Doesn´t she have a nose job?
@@myristicina. First of all, the use of "Only" and "Just" are only just excuses for what? As YOU said, being dumb. Who was dumb? SHE was dumb. Next how dumb is someone allowed to be over 21 years old. Two she grew up in LA, not in the middle of nowhere. Her father was a Dr. Getting the idea yet? One good question; Was she a virgin? I doubt it. Next: She decided to keep the dress, RIGHT?. She called L.Tripp, RIGHT? She did that also, then she became a speaker for victims, RIGHT. That was after she went through it all. Now she is 38 and she is still making a living being "Monika", RIGHT? What about her saying, one time, "I was responsible for what happened to me". And, it didn´t "Happen" to her, she was at least 40% of it, RIGHT. She NEVER took any responsibility for it. She NEVER said I shouldn´t have done this or that. There were only two people there. Clinton took responsibility and apologized, RIGHT? Whether he really meant it or not. He got the blame because he was "The Man" and Pres. Not one woman said anything against her. In this case, it was the Man, all was OK. Give me a break. How dumb is the public and how dumb are YOU? Think about it. I await your answer or do I just get another excuse. Here is a recent example of how dumb she still is,. An interviewer asked: When you couldn't get a job you could have moved back with your parents, right? Answer: "My parents couldn´t support me for the rest of my life". First of all, they may have only had to pay for her food and clothing, more or less. It would have cost more than a couple of hundred a month, in those days. And no parent can support their child, who is over 20 younger for the rest of the child´s life. The odds would be that the child would live at least 10-20 years longer than the father. She would inherit the house and a lot of cash, to share with her brother, if he needed it too... Are YOU forming a clear picture of a very dumb and spoiled child with no idea how to get through life? A perfect example of a girl of the 50s who got a job in the WH... This is the 21st Century, It happened in the 80s... Wake up, my dear.
@@myristicina. Looking at the sentence YOU just wrote which didn´t start with a capital letter and didn´t end with a question mark and is not very well constructed. No periods or commas. It was more like three separate sentences and still a bit incorrect. It would have failed an English test. It is like speaking poor speech, not writing. Maybe that is why you need to defend her and all of the young and dumb girls of America. Why don´t YOU start a new group: The Young and Dumb Christian American Girls". Appoint Monika as the 1st President. Maybe she will find a nice young intern to work with her.
Monica at 22 years old it’s put into a hotel room with a bunch of FBI suits for nine hours of questioning . All she wanted to do was call her mother and they would not let her. Threatening her with 25 years in prison. What the Democrats and media did to her was disgusting. It is amazing she survived..
@Proper I was referring to the wall to wall media coverage…Democrat leaders calling her trash. Hillary Clinton while holding bills hand in an interview,prior to the Blue dress had stated re Monica Lewinsky “it’s not true…this whole thing is just a right wing conspiracy conspiring against my husband” Post blue dress called her a “Bimbo.” Democrat leaders called her names, made fun of her weight etc. etc. They were cruel and heartless. That would never happen today. SNL destroyed her-show after show just humiliating her.
@@davidsonofyisraelI thought we now realized men in high places shouldn’t be allowed to seduce the young girls anymore. In Monica’s day I imagine she was expected to. Maybe it was that way for Kamala too
@@davidsonofyisraelshe had 9 encounters with that man and was labelled a stalker, became a social pariah. Was ridiculed by every single type of media, nearly killed herself, her friends and family affected, she could never get married or have kids again and her name will always be remembered in association with that man. But yes, all actions have consequences
She is making a fortune playing the victim. Didn´t she know about Clinton's affairs long before she applied to be an intern? Try thinking from both sides, or just try thinking, HH?
I cant believe people still rather bring up some l private affair he had with an intern rather than the bombings he conducted in Serbia and Bosnia or the 500K Iraqis he helped starved with the sanctions against Iraq or the fact that he allowed the FBI to shoot innocent people on their private property without due process. I dont give a damn about his private consensual fling with some intern.
What I found very interesting is how 50% of men wanted him held accountable for his own behavior whereas 50% women thought it to be a right wing conspiracy. Really tells you how women defend men with bad behavior.
Honestly I never understood why women gets attracted and fascinated to this kind of personalities. See the pop stars and korean stars nowadays there fanbase are mostly teenage girls. The way they obsessed with them is quite displeasing. I want to understand the psychology behind it.
@@adityapagare6026Read the Bible if you want to understand the psychology behind it, specifically Revelation. Take a good look at the New Testament and you'll see why. Applies to men and women. I grew up in the church but not religious by any means.
Two things can be true at the same time: Clinton did ruin Monica Lewinsky’s life but also the republicans wanted to create a conspiracy to overthrow the President. This was the Gingrich era, a precursor to Trump and Trumpism.
Yep, a whopping 21-22 years old being taken advantage of by the most powerful man in the world. I only really ever hear democrats make this excuse for Clinton. Which makes sense considering how hypocritical they are by design.
4c1dr3fl3x A virginity jab? Really? Ha, try harder, little buddy. Obviously I’m pointing out the hypocrisy of the left and also the idea that it’s a very hostile work environment, given possibly no choice in her mind, that she feels forced to sexually accept her boss, the most powerful man in the world. Spare me your shitty reasoning.
@@mtb416 Spare me your bullshit support of actual sexual assault survivors when you're just another political operative profile. Who the fuck has 43 subscribers and no content? A propaganda employee account, that's who. Get the fuck out of here with your bullshit.
I was a 24 yr old grad student watching this from my college dorm room. I knew he was lying through his teeth the way he pointed his finger so angrily.
Not a me too moment. Me too can't be used as an umbrella term for everyone to use. Me too is for people that were harrassed and sexually abused. This was a consenting affair. Read the Starr Report, Monica wasn't completely innocent.
At age 22, I also came out of a very bad breakup from a guy who cheated on me repeatedly & then dumped me to be with the guy he was cheating on me with. A few months later, I moved in with a guy who I knew had a boyfriend, but because he relentlessly kept hitting on me, I eventually gave in & started up a relationship with someone who I knew had a BF. I’m not saying that what Monica did was right, but when you have ZERO self worth, it causes you to become enamored with anyone who gives you attention, and it can cause you to make terrible decisions. Now, 15 years later, I don’t even recognize myself back in 2008 & I wish I could go back in time & shake myself awake & tell myself to make better decisions. I’m sure Monica feels the same way
I think most women go through that phase. But i certainly dont think i can blame any married man i have slept with during that phase or openly admit them..only 2 of my friends know about those mistakes i made
There is an ode to hypocrisy and the presumption of a democracy in the hands of those possessed by the cult of image. We really treat each other horribly for our ideals. Sorry Ms. Lewinsky. So very sorry.
all these negative comments about monica lewinsky. the point is after the affair, bill clinton is still seen as the president who did great things for america but monica lewinsky is only seeing as the woman who slept with the president despite now 20 years later, none of her later accomplishments matter. how is that fair? yes, it was a consensual relationship but he gets to keep his career, his marriage and family and what does she get? haters that still hate her to this day and none of her career accomplishments matter.
That whole situation was not a me too situation. She decided to sleep with a man with high power and wealth. (Polticians get payed bribes in donations even before the clinton administration.) She was in no way patient zero. I remember hearing she spoke with someone who was leading the me too movement and had her recall everything that happened. The. She said you know that is rape. An affair is not rape. Any person that decides to have a intimate relationship with a married person is there actual choice. Putting her choice as a part of the me too movement actually hurts the movement.
I respectful disagree -- from an abuse of power standpoint. They both were adults who agreed to the affair, but he manipulated and preyed on her immaturity & emotions. He was twice her age. And from what I understand, her made her believe that he was going to leave Hillary for her. 😂 How ridiculous. That's why it falls under the ME TOO movement. All these years later people still blame her more than him. She's viewed as a seductresses instead of someone who was preyed on by a man with a pattern of abusive behavior. Classic #METOO.
She was young and stupid but people have never let it go. He has gone on to the same to other young people ( Lolita express? ) and he's still walking free.
Jaimie Newber no he was not t wife her age. He was 34 the youngest president.people didn’t hate her. They hated what the republicans did. There needs to be a story about that. Not fair. Was realected by 60 percent of the vote.
morningdew you know nothing. You Are a liar. He has never gone on to do this to anyone else. How to you know this. Are you young and stupid? Or just stupid. This woman isn’t old enough to have been around. Monica needs to shut up.
On the topic of keeping a professional and personal life separate- he did his “personal” things (that he had no right to do) in a professional place. I think the public has every right to judge someone for that. If you’re going to cheat on your wife, don’t do it at work and then insist that people have no business digging into your personal affairs. As for Monica, this is hard to say, but what she did was incredibly stupid and reckless, and then she TOLD someone about it. We can all get up on our high-horses and say “she shouldn’t be judged for one mistake she made in her twenties” but the fact is, we ARE all judgemental people. We all read the tabloids and gossip about celebrities’ personal lives. We are all fascinated with sex. We are all constantly judging each other. I don’t think we have to beat ourselves up for that.
It´s all his fault. Great excuses for Monika. She knew very well about his affairs long before SHE applied for the internship at the WH. Give me a break. The poor victim. Try thinking from both sides and say something intelligent.
It's easy for us to judge, imagine how much shame and scrutiny she had to go through for _years_ . She was even suicidal. Clinton was the married man, she was a young girl with a crush. He never took the responsibility and continued living his life, basically leaving her alone to deal with all of it. We can't make someone go through hell for life due to one mistake they did (and a mistake that while wrong, shouldn't be too much of our business anyway).
@@monicarenee7949 did she not admit to persueing him and heavily flirting with him? no one used their power. its not assault or violation shes a grown woman not a teenager
I wonder why Monica has always shaded Paula Jones and seems to never have empathy for her. It's kind of a contradiction and bullying on her part, besides hypocritical
She gave a brilliant TED talk about public shaming in the internet square, no different than during colonial days. I agree with much of what she says...and who amongst us didn t fall in love with the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time. Who hasn t befriended and trusted what turned out to be the friend from hell. She s head and shoulders above most of us by having learned beautifully and intelligently from our raking her over the coals. Bill should be so lucky as to have her as his champion...at least, she had compassion for him. These two bonded at the level of wounds...insecurities, insufficiencies, longings, heart poverty. The conflict inflammation that gained traction in the late 80s, post Watergate, post Carter, post Reagan political mitosis - as two parties stretched too far left and right - and radio talk show hosts like Limbaugh and then the Fox crowd exploited the gap and fed the public's craving for bread and circus and somebody to blame our increasing ills on. Until we see that these divisions are erupting in a national auto-immune disease that's killing our soul, we are gonna enjoy more strife and less redolution, if not empathy. Good luck, Monica...you won. Don t give up on us.
I do feel bad for Monica in a lot of ways, for many reasons, but I feel so much more sympathy towards Paula Jones tbh. She was treated horribly as well. And in her case, she did not willingly choose to participate in an affair with a married father or lie about it afterwards to protect him and herself. She didn't initiate it, engage with it or keep it going for two years. I just finished watching an interview she did on the Roseanne show (th-cam.com/video/1zjTOB7KqtU/w-d-xo.html) and I admire her for her bravery and strength to keep up the fight against money and power in the name of the truth despite the way people perceived her or treated her. Like Monica, she experienced a lot through her ordeal and in her case, it wasn't even consensual. Yet you don't see her being propped up in the public eye as a victim. That's not to say that Monica isn't one in any way, but just to say that there are other women who had interactions with Clinton, that they didn't ask for, and if we're going to analyze his scandals under a MeToo lens then there are others who should be discussed as well. The exposure and discourse surrounding Monica, now and in all these years, is something incomparable which - although I understand - is odd when there are cases between him and others that involve acts that were not even consensual.
She was a young naive woman beguiled by the world’s most powerful president. I was in my early 20s when I started my corporate career and I could’ve very easily been deceived by my rich boss. Sleeping with a married man was a mistake but when you are young & looking to gain favor with a powerful figure, emotions get mixed. He might’ve seemed like a mentor at times, perhaps even a father figure but he wasn’t wise enough to keep things moral. He trespassed and with her limited understanding she agreed. I blame him more than I blame her, although she made her fair share of mistakes.
Lewinsky has made it a career from having a consensual affair with a married man. No intern saves a stained dress for a year unless she had intentions of using it against the person.
@@mckenzieloveless2817 and that has what to do with his position as president exactly...? He was chosen to be The President of The United States.....not the Federal Official of Marriage Devotion. People need to learn to ignore smear campaigns.
I will never understand why so many people run to Monica's defence and why we consider her a victim. She wasn't a child. She was intelligent. This was not the first time she had snuck around with an older, married man. Yes - the media hounded her, Linda Tripp betrayed her, her private conversations and relationship were made public and she was treated unethiclly by the FBI. But, ultimately, she knew what she was doing when she entered into the affair. She knew what she was doing when she purgered herself on her affidavit. She was not an innocent victim...and, if you listen to the tapes, not a particularly kind person. I feel that, as a society, we've gone too far. We are so determined to draw attention to the wrong doing of men in power that we automatically take all the blame off the woman, even if that doesn't align with the truth.
I agree that she did wrong, but at the end of the day he was the President of the United States and she was just a 22 year old intern. He should have known better. He got to move on with his life and have a successful career while her life was completely destroyed. Think about that as well.
Key phrase “men in power”, this was the most powerful man at the time and the Office of the President of the United States. How does such a person compromise that position? With all his advisors, security, etc, how is this allowed to happen? Does the Secret Service look the other way?
Bill was more at fault than Monica was. Bill Clinton was actually married with a child where Monica was single. Bill was in his fifties where Monica was in her early twenties so he should have known better compared to her.
Ms Lindsey Graham was clutching his pearls talking about cleansing the office of the presidency. My how times have changed. Ken Starr and his sidekick Kavanaugh got off on talking about a fn BJ. The whole thing was absurd.
This premise is idiocy. The only constitutional issue then was violation of separation of powers via an illegal act (perjury) by a sitting president in a courtroom.
Is there any chance you might realize at any point that me too is about lack of consent and therefore you are trivializing sexual harrassment/abuse by framing this as a "metoo scandal"?
No. That is bullshit. Me too is also about an abuse of power. The fucking president of the United States took interest an intern. Huge power dynamic there. It’s also about victim shaming. You don’t own the movement so shut up.
@@rogeh5687 I'm taking the wild guess that "3 Aussie guys, Rj, Sam & Mike" don't own metoo either, so I don't need to tell you what to do with your exhortation to shut up
@@PinkAsAPistol no but I’m not ostracising a victim because it doesn’t fit into your bullshit playbook.

The leader of the ‘free world apparently.’ His wife is a hypocritical moron who only supported ‘me-too’ for clout. Please.
@@rogeh5687 Neither am I claiming that since I don't find this has anything to do with metoo and lack of consent specifically, everything about how she was treated - especially after the scandal - was ok and unrelated to patriarchal structures.

I really want to know how Hillary Clinton as one the most powerful women in the America deal with this situation. It was so humiliating for her. I hope she did, do, will do something to show his power to get revenge from a man who destroyed her image. I like Hillary, but as a woman, I want to still waiting to see a movement from her.
I imagine it went something like this, I will give you what I imagine as a very accurate emotional script of what I thought happened Hillary(throws vase at him): You selfish piece of Sh*t how do you think I’m feeling!, (tears up)I am DEVASTATED, I am MORTIFIED, I am APPALLED! Bill: it was an unnecessary distraction I tried to stop it Hillary: you let an obsessive crazy person into your life and it became a distraction, what a surprise! Bill: I’m sorry just please forgive me it was a wreckless, stupid decision just please don’t leave me, I’m a troubled person it goes back to my childhood Hillary:(with tears in her eyes) oh Don’t tell that story again, okay poor little bill and your alcoholic step father, your stern grandmother and your tragic life….you know what you are bill…you are chaos, you are mayhem….everywhere you go, everything you do, it just disorients people long enough for you to get your way and for the longest time I was stupid enough to think I could control this chaos because we were a team! It was the 2 of us against the world!…there were causes we believed in things we wanted to do, we had a mission, we had a purpose…we weren’t like anybody else, there was nothing we couldn’t do! And we were gonna do it all together, but I was wrong! I was wrong! You lit our life on fire!! You exposed our lives to those narcissists Linda Tripp and Ken Starr…and for what? For sex Bill: no, no it wasn’t like that it, it, we didn’t Hillary: oh please! Just because you didn’t finish doesn’t mean you didn’t start!…..(teary eyed) this, this is an arrangement…okay, you are not my husband anymore, you- Bill: (teary eyed) Hillary please don’t leave me, your the only woman I’ve ever loved Hillary: I threw my body in front of you to protect you, I humiliated myself for your benefit…and you go off and do whatever the F**K you want…this an arrangement that’s all this is do you understand that Bill: (crying) Hillary I love you I need you, I will do anything to make it up to you just please don’t leave me Hillary: Do I even have a choice? Are you really that naïve, If I leave you, I’m the woman who left president Clinton, if I stay, I’m the woman who stayed! I lose either way because I didn’t invest in me I invested in US!!! (Crying) You’ve made me look stupid in front of the entire world and I F**KING hate you for that! (She walks out of the room and they promise to not talk about it unless questioned) This was actually a scene from a TV series about them and it’s extremely powerful because it’s extremely true that Hillary invested in the two of them, and even did it in her presidential campaign. It’s also hard hitting because it answers the long asked question, why didn’t you separate? Because it’s an arrangement. We all knew it was an arrangement after the scandal but I have no doubt they truly loved each other before this. Whenever they are asked about their marriage they deflect now because now it’s an arrangement but they insist it’s not and do a very good job of acting it out. It’s arguably the most impactful scene in the whole series because those questions about their marriage have been deflected ever since this scandal and we finally get the answers to how Hillary reacted, likely in an accurate way. This series is called “Impeachment American Crime story” I recommend watching it m.th-cam.com/video/56EOr6dMtP0/w-d-xo.html ⬆️here’s a link to the scene
This is not a #metoo example. She was an adult. And she also willingly participated in the affair knowing he was married. Was she the only female intern? No. She's not a victim.
they were both old enough to know right from wrong, they were both responsible & they’re not innocent. i just feel sorry for lewinsky because she got all the heat, & people she trusted set her up. she handled this well.
I thought she was wonderful AND much maligned wrongfully 🤬. A young woman in love with a charismatic guy who SHE thought was actually going to marry her 😢 She was just immature and blinded by the power of a handsome powerful man 😢. It was typical “ typist marry the boss “ scenario 😢.

Disappointed in Dana Bash…Yes Monica legacy will be Monica Lewinsky. I disagree with data that Bill Clinton’s legacy is all that he did open his presidential term. When I think of Bill Clinton I think of Gennifer Flowers, Paula Jones and Monica.
I think Monica was treated horribly by the media and us citizens as well. She will hopefully have her side of the story told in full soon. She's a victim
No she's not. She knew full well what she was doing. She was not forced to do anything. And being an adult she knew that there are consequences for every action. She is NOT a victim but a partaker.
Monica in 1995 and 1996 said she was in love with Bill Clinton and willing flashing her tongs to Bill. Monica now riding on the MeToo movement and try to cash in. The biggest difference is when Paula Jones first came out to accuse Bill was that she was forced upon by Bill , Paula has all the right to ride on MeToo, but Monica willingly choose to flirt with Bill and willingly say so that she loves him she willing playing the fire with a married president, Monica has a huge moral issue. Monica never sued Clinton she was merely being caught by their secret love affair. Paula Jones sued Bill Clinton in 1994, she stood up and was the real hero people forgot.
Gosh, to think of how we focus on so much of the wrong shit in this country. Unbelievable. But...what can you expect when you don't have a life of your own.
Does anyone remember the Barbra Walters interview with Monica that revealed that she had to leave her previous job because she had an affair with her married boss? It's right there in the interview. Barbra Walters got to her admit that. Innocent? I don't think so. Pattern ? Absolutely. And if she hates reliving it why keep talking?
@Proper that’s like exactly how Bill Clinton has described it lol, watch his segments in the Hillary doc about it. He talks about how low and politically pressured he felt at the time and how that led him to making poor decisions
In 1992, I wrote extensively about what would become the Lewinsky scandal. I included Linda Tripp and the eventual dress turnover to the FBI that had the stains. Again, this was 1992.
It is amazing how a pure opportunist...over time has co-opted a movement (Me2) to be reinvented as a victim. Kardashian...before the Kardashians. She and her mother should have called the book " HOW TO PIMP A PRESIDENCY "...PRESIDENT who got played
Bill is going to continue to live his life as he pleases; his wife will stick by his side regardless and it’s no one’s business. Hilary strengthens their relationship and any one that sends or attempts to break their bond will only fail and suffer.

Heck, if you're going to have an ADULTerous affair, at least select an ADULT.
The difference between Monica and Bill was that Monica only lied to cover for Bill but she was truthful about everything when it came to her mistakes.

He was being smart.

Monica is such an intelligent, beautiful woman. I honestly admire her for being able walk through that storm and not only make it out alive, but come out thriving all these years later. Let's be honest, most women would be mortified if the sexual exploits of their 20s were made public. Clinton used his position of power to take advantage of her. Was she wrong for pursuing a married man? Yes. Was he wrong for abusing his power & being unfaithful? Yes. But Monica deserves to be remembered for so much more than 1 mistake that was made over 20 years ago.
In 1992, I wrote extensively about what would become the Lewinsky scandal. I included Linda Tripp and the eventual dress turnover to the FBI that had the stains. Again, this was 1992.
Do YOU see her as the victim? Try this: She knew about his affairs and weakness for women and... Now she is the lecturer on abuse and mobbing. Great trick. Read what I wrote above. Beauty and intelligence are a matter of taste. Doesn´t she have a nose job?
@@wordwarrior2350 she was only a young woman she was dumb and young she’s not this scheming person okay
@@myristicina. First of all, the use of "Only" and "Just" are only just excuses for what? As YOU said, being dumb.
Who was dumb? SHE was dumb. Next how dumb is someone allowed to be over 21 years old. Two she grew up in LA, not in the middle of nowhere. Her father was a Dr. Getting the idea yet? One good question; Was she a virgin? I doubt it. Next: She decided to keep the dress, RIGHT?. She called L.Tripp, RIGHT? She did that also, then she became a speaker for victims, RIGHT. That was after she went through it all. Now she is 38 and she is still making a living being "Monika", RIGHT? What about her saying, one time, "I was responsible for what happened to me". And, it didn´t "Happen" to her, she was at least 40% of it, RIGHT. She NEVER took any responsibility for it. She NEVER said I shouldn´t have done this or that. There were only two people there. Clinton took responsibility and apologized, RIGHT? Whether he really meant it or not. He got the blame because he was "The Man" and Pres. Not one woman said anything against her. In this case, it was the Man, all was OK. Give me a break. How dumb is the public and how dumb are YOU? Think about it.
I await your answer or do I just get another excuse. Here is a recent example of how dumb she still is,. An interviewer asked: When you couldn't get a job you could have moved back with your parents, right? Answer: "My parents couldn´t support me for the rest of my life". First of all, they may have only had to pay for her food and clothing, more or less. It would have cost more than a couple of hundred a month, in those days. And no parent can support their child, who is over 20 younger for the rest of the child´s life. The odds would be that the child would live at least 10-20 years longer than the father. She would inherit the house and a lot of cash, to share with her brother, if he needed it too... Are YOU forming a clear picture of a very dumb and spoiled child with no idea how to get through life? A perfect example of a girl of the 50s who got a job in the WH... This is the 21st Century, It happened in the 80s... Wake up, my dear.
@@myristicina. Looking at the sentence YOU just wrote which didn´t start with a capital letter and didn´t end with a question mark and is not very well constructed. No periods or commas. It was more like three separate sentences and still a bit incorrect. It would have failed an English test. It is like speaking poor speech, not writing.
Maybe that is why you need to defend her and all of the young and dumb girls of America. Why don´t YOU start a new group: The Young and Dumb Christian American Girls". Appoint Monika as the 1st President. Maybe she will find a nice young intern to work with her.
Monica at 22 years old it’s put into a hotel room with a bunch of FBI suits for nine hours of questioning . All she wanted to do was call her mother and they would not let her. Threatening her with 25 years in prison. What the Democrats and media did to her was disgusting. It is amazing she survived..
@Proper I was referring to the wall to wall media coverage…Democrat leaders calling her trash. Hillary Clinton while holding bills hand in an interview,prior to the Blue dress had stated re Monica Lewinsky “it’s not true…this whole thing is just a right wing conspiracy conspiring against my husband”
Post blue dress called her a “Bimbo.”
Democrat leaders called her names, made fun of her weight etc. etc. They were cruel and heartless. That would never happen today. SNL destroyed her-show after show just humiliating her.
As far as i know, she knew what she was doing and there are consequences for every action. Also, 22 is an adult. She was not a child.
@@davidsonofyisraelI thought we now realized men in high places shouldn’t be allowed to seduce the young girls anymore. In Monica’s day I imagine she was expected to. Maybe it was that way for Kamala too
@@davidsonofyisraelshe had 9 encounters with that man and was labelled a stalker, became a social pariah.

But yes, all actions have consequences

cantonment boy icekid Well otherwise she wouldn't have been remembered at all. And it was her choice regardless.
That's because she was!
She is making a fortune playing the victim. Didn´t she know about Clinton's affairs long before she applied to be an intern? Try thinking from both sides, or just try thinking, HH?
it will far outshine the Clinton's legacy
@@ssrobs2552Id rather not be remembered at all then to be remembered as the president side piece.
I cant believe people still rather bring up some l private affair he had with an intern rather than the bombings he conducted in Serbia and Bosnia or the 500K Iraqis he helped starved with the sanctions against Iraq or the fact that he allowed the FBI to shoot innocent people on their private property without due process. I dont give a damn about his private consensual fling with some intern.
Even as governor of Arkansas his promiscuity overshadowed his corruption. Interesting how it "worked out" for him.
its all relevant.a testament to his lies and hypocrasy
The Clinton's body Count...
What I found very interesting is how 50% of men wanted him held accountable for his own behavior whereas 50% women thought it to be a right wing conspiracy. Really tells you how women defend men with bad behavior.
Honestly I never understood why women gets attracted and fascinated to this kind of personalities. See the pop stars and korean stars nowadays there fanbase are mostly teenage girls. The way they obsessed with them is quite displeasing. I want to understand the psychology behind it.
True
Yes
@@adityapagare6026Read the Bible if you want to understand the psychology behind it, specifically Revelation. Take a good look at the New Testament and you'll see why. Applies to men and women. I grew up in the church but not religious by any means.
Two things can be true at the same time: Clinton did ruin Monica Lewinsky’s life but also the republicans wanted to create a conspiracy to overthrow the President. This was the Gingrich era, a precursor to Trump and Trumpism.
Monica was an adult and a willing participant in this affairl.
#SheWasAGrownWomanToo
Yep, a whopping 21-22 years old being taken advantage of by the most powerful man in the world. I only really ever hear democrats make this excuse for Clinton. Which makes sense considering how hypocritical they are by design.
So was Bill Cosby victims
4c1dr3fl3x A virginity jab? Really? Ha, try harder, little buddy. Obviously I’m pointing out the hypocrisy of the left and also the idea that it’s a very hostile work environment, given possibly no choice in her mind, that she feels forced to sexually accept her boss, the most powerful man in the world. Spare me your shitty reasoning.
@@mtb416 Spare me your bullshit support of actual sexual assault survivors when you're just another political operative profile. Who the fuck has 43 subscribers and no content? A propaganda employee account, that's who. Get the fuck out of here with your bullshit.
I remember being a teenager and not understanding the magnitude of this story. How she was affected. I abhor bullies. Nothing but cowards.
I was a 24 yr old grad student watching this from my college dorm room. I knew he was lying through his teeth the way he pointed his finger so angrily.
Don’t be a whore then
Not a me too moment. Me too can't be used as an umbrella term for everyone to use. Me too is for people that were harrassed and sexually abused. This was a consenting affair. Read the Starr Report, Monica wasn't completely innocent.
At age 22, I also came out of a very bad breakup from a guy who cheated on me repeatedly & then dumped me to be with the guy he was cheating on me with. A few months later, I moved in with a guy who I knew had a boyfriend, but because he relentlessly kept hitting on me, I eventually gave in & started up a relationship with someone who I knew had a BF. I’m not saying that what Monica did was right, but when you have ZERO self worth, it causes you to become enamored with anyone who gives you attention, and it can cause you to make terrible decisions. Now, 15 years later, I don’t even recognize myself back in 2008 & I wish I could go back in time & shake myself awake & tell myself to make better decisions. I’m sure Monica feels the same way
I think most women go through that phase. But i certainly dont think i can blame any married man i have slept with during that phase or openly admit them..only 2 of my friends know about those mistakes i made
I'm sorry? Are you G A Y?
#MeToo Has destroyed it for real victims!
michaelthemovieman Woah bro
What do you mean
Hats down to her bravery and strength and for everything she is currently doing.
Bravery for admitting to being the whore? Her and Bill both are trash.
Monica has a great ted talk. Check it out.
Much love to our sister Monica Lewinsky hopefully we live in more compassionate times to our beautiful sisters. Respect ☮️🕊️
There is an ode to hypocrisy and the presumption of a democracy in the hands of those possessed by the cult of image.
We really treat each other horribly for our ideals. Sorry Ms. Lewinsky. So very sorry.
That was not a me too scandal. She was a consenting adult.
In this day and age leftist would say he had power over her so its rape
THANK YOU!!!
ORLY
Indeed. As are the vast majority of the recent #metoo cases. Fake outrage.
Your a dumb ass
all these negative comments about monica lewinsky. the point is after the affair, bill clinton is still seen as the president who did great things for america but monica lewinsky is only seeing as the woman who slept with the president despite now 20 years later, none of her later accomplishments matter. how is that fair? yes, it was a consensual relationship but he gets to keep his career, his marriage and family and what does she get? haters that still hate her to this day and none of her career accomplishments matter.
What accomplishments?
How can anyone think that a telephone call anywhere in the Capital is ever private?
BUT it was an affair ....see they were both wrong .she knew he was married and he knew he was married
Sandusky, Nassar, Weinstein, Epstein, Nygard, Wexner, Trump, Prince Andrew, R Kelly, Bill Cosby...its not a good list.
That whole situation was not a me too situation. She decided to sleep with a man with high power and wealth. (Polticians get payed bribes in donations even before the clinton administration.) She was in no way patient zero. I remember hearing she spoke with someone who was leading the me too movement and had her recall everything that happened. The. She said you know that is rape. An affair is not rape. Any person that decides to have a intimate relationship with a married person is there actual choice. Putting her choice as a part of the me too movement actually hurts the movement.
I respectful disagree -- from an abuse of power standpoint. They both were adults who agreed to the affair, but he manipulated and preyed on her immaturity & emotions. He was twice her age. And from what I understand, her made her believe that he was going to leave Hillary for her. 😂 How ridiculous. That's why it falls under the ME TOO movement. All these years later people still blame her more than him. She's viewed as a seductresses instead of someone who was preyed on by a man with a pattern of abusive behavior. Classic #METOO.
She was young and stupid but people have never let it go. He has gone on to the same to other young people ( Lolita express? ) and he's still walking free.
What she said was not about "Mee too", it was about public shaming on the internet.
Jaimie Newber no he was not t wife her age. He was 34 the youngest president.people didn’t hate her. They hated what the republicans did. There needs to be a story about that. Not fair. Was realected by 60 percent of the vote.
morningdew you know nothing. You Are a liar. He has never gone on to do this to anyone else. How to you know this. Are you young and stupid? Or just stupid. This woman isn’t old enough to have been around. Monica needs to shut up.
It’s beyond me how he wasn’t forced to resign…. Disgusting
Look like most of women rather than men were in support for him.
Why? You're silly.
@@yoloparrot42 he fucking lied under oath… plus how disgusting his semen on the floor of the Oval Office…..
Cheating on your wife isn’t an impeachable offense
Yet they want trumps balls hung from a tree branch for doing the same.
On the topic of keeping a professional and personal life separate- he did his “personal” things (that he had no right to do) in a professional place. I think the public has every right to judge someone for that. If you’re going to cheat on your wife, don’t do it at work and then insist that people have no business digging into your personal affairs.
As for Monica, this is hard to say, but what she did was incredibly stupid and reckless, and then she TOLD someone about it. We can all get up on our high-horses and say “she shouldn’t be judged for one mistake she made in her twenties” but the fact is, we ARE all judgemental people. We all read the tabloids and gossip about celebrities’ personal lives. We are all fascinated with sex. We are all constantly judging each other. I don’t think we have to beat ourselves up for that.
It´s all his fault. Great excuses for Monika. She knew very well about his affairs long before SHE applied for the internship at the WH. Give me a break. The poor victim. Try thinking from both sides and say something intelligent.
It's easy for us to judge, imagine how much shame and scrutiny she had to go through for _years_ . She was even suicidal. Clinton was the married man, she was a young girl with a crush. He never took the responsibility and continued living his life, basically leaving her alone to deal with all of it. We can't make someone go through hell for life due to one mistake they did (and a mistake that while wrong, shouldn't be too much of our business anyway).
Imagine caring about any of this. Ah, the privilege of the 90s - RIP.
@@wordwarrior2350yeah sorry Monica she came on to him and Bill of coarse said yes

Both adults. Both accountable.
I wonder why Monica has always shaded Paula Jones and seems to never have empathy for her. It's kind of a contradiction and bullying on her part, besides hypocritical
She gave a brilliant TED talk about public shaming in the internet square, no different than during colonial days. I agree with much of what she says...and who amongst us didn t fall in love with the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time. Who hasn t befriended and trusted what turned out to be the friend from hell. She s head and shoulders above most of us by having learned beautifully and intelligently from our raking her over the coals. Bill should be so lucky as to have her as his champion...at least, she had compassion for him. These two bonded at the level of wounds...insecurities, insufficiencies, longings, heart poverty. The conflict inflammation that gained traction in the late 80s, post Watergate, post Carter, post Reagan political mitosis - as two parties stretched too far left and right - and radio talk show hosts like Limbaugh and then the Fox crowd exploited the gap and fed the public's craving for bread and circus and somebody to blame our increasing ills on. Until we see that these divisions are erupting in a national auto-immune disease that's killing our soul, we are gonna enjoy more strife and less redolution, if not empathy. Good luck, Monica...you won. Don t give up on us.
Why are priests called father? because its too suspicious to call them daddy....

Sheep be too obvious, me hearties! Yeargh!
I do feel bad for Monica in a lot of ways, for many reasons, but I feel so much more sympathy towards Paula Jones tbh. She was treated horribly as well. And in her case, she did not willingly choose to participate in an affair with a married father or lie about it afterwards to protect him and herself. She didn't initiate it, engage with it or keep it going for two years. I just finished watching an interview she did on the Roseanne show (th-cam.com/video/1zjTOB7KqtU/w-d-xo.html) and I admire her for her bravery and strength to keep up the fight against money and power in the name of the truth despite the way people perceived her or treated her. Like Monica, she experienced a lot through her ordeal and in her case, it wasn't even consensual. Yet you don't see her being propped up in the public eye as a victim. That's not to say that Monica isn't one in any way, but just to say that there are other women who had interactions with Clinton, that they didn't ask for, and if we're going to analyze his scandals under a MeToo lens then there are others who should be discussed as well. The exposure and discourse surrounding Monica, now and in all these years, is something incomparable which - although I understand - is odd when there are cases between him and others that involve acts that were not even consensual.
It’s her fault… why are you acting like she was assaulted?
@@TDoubleYu Which her are you talking about... I mentioned two women here?
She was a young naive woman beguiled by the world’s most powerful president. I was in my early 20s when I started my corporate career and I could’ve very easily been deceived by my rich boss. Sleeping with a married man was a mistake but when you are young & looking to gain favor with a powerful figure, emotions get mixed. He might’ve seemed like a mentor at times, perhaps even a father figure but he wasn’t wise enough to keep things moral. He trespassed and with her limited understanding she agreed. I blame him more than I blame her, although she made her fair share of mistakes.
The Rebranding of a none victim. NOT A #METOO example!! 😡🤨
Thank you for pointing that out because I got a bit disgusted by that

It was "nasty cuz it was public" ... No Monica.. it was nasty before then.
I will never understand why so many people run to Monica's defence and why we consider her a victim. She wasn't a child. She was intelligent. This was not the first time she had snuck around with an older, married man. Yes - the media hounded her, Linda Tripp betrayed her, her private conversations and relationship were made public and she was treated unethiclly by the FBI. But, ultimately, she knew what she was doing when she entered into the affair. She knew what she was doing when she purgered herself on her affidavit. She was not an innocent victim...and, if you listen to the tapes, not a particularly kind person. I feel that, as a society, we've gone too far. We are so determined to draw attention to the wrong doing of men in power that we automatically take all the blame off the woman, even if that doesn't align with the truth.
I agree that she did wrong, but at the end of the day he was the President of the United States and she was just a 22 year old intern. He should have known better.
He got to move on with his life and have a successful career while her life was completely destroyed. Think about that as well.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. I don’t feel bad for her at all. She wasn’t a child, she was an adult and should be treated as such.
Key phrase “men in power”, this was the most powerful man at the time and the Office of the President of the United States. How does such a person compromise that position? With all his advisors, security, etc, how is this allowed to happen? Does the Secret Service look the other way?
Bill was more at fault than Monica was. Bill Clinton was actually married with a child where Monica was single. Bill was in his fifties where Monica was in her early twenties so he should have known better compared to her.

I really want to know how Hillary Clinton as one the most powerful women in the America deal with this situation. It was so humiliating for her. I hope she did, do, will do something to show his power to get revenge from a man who destroyed her image. I like Hillary, but as a woman, I want to still waiting to see a movement from her.
I imagine it went something like this, I will give you what I imagine as a very accurate emotional script of what I thought happened
Hillary(throws vase at him): You selfish piece of Sh*t how do you think I’m feeling!, (tears up)I am DEVASTATED, I am MORTIFIED, I am APPALLED!
Bill: it was an unnecessary distraction I tried to stop it
Hillary: you let an obsessive crazy person into your life and it became a distraction, what a surprise!
Bill: I’m sorry just please forgive me it was a wreckless, stupid decision just please don’t leave me, I’m a troubled person it goes back to my childhood
Hillary:(with tears in her eyes) oh Don’t tell that story again, okay poor little bill and your alcoholic step father, your stern grandmother and your tragic life….you know what you are bill…you are chaos, you are mayhem….everywhere you go, everything you do, it just disorients people long enough for you to get your way and for the longest time I was stupid enough to think I could control this chaos because we were a team! It was the 2 of us against the world!…there were causes we believed in things we wanted to do, we had a mission, we had a purpose…we weren’t like anybody else, there was nothing we couldn’t do! And we were gonna do it all together, but I was wrong! I was wrong! You lit our life on fire!! You exposed our lives to those narcissists Linda Tripp and Ken Starr…and for what? For sex
Bill: no, no it wasn’t like that it, it, we didn’t
Hillary: oh please! Just because you didn’t finish doesn’t mean you didn’t start!…..(teary eyed) this, this is an arrangement…okay, you are not my husband anymore, you-
Bill: (teary eyed) Hillary please don’t leave me, your the only woman I’ve ever loved
Hillary: I threw my body in front of you to protect you, I humiliated myself for your benefit…and you go off and do whatever the F**K you want…this an arrangement that’s all this is do you understand that
Bill: (crying) Hillary I love you I need you, I will do anything to make it up to you just please don’t leave me
Hillary: Do I even have a choice? Are you really that naïve, If I leave you, I’m the woman who left president Clinton, if I stay, I’m the woman who stayed! I lose either way because I didn’t invest in me I invested in US!!! (Crying) You’ve made me look stupid in front of the entire world and I F**KING hate you for that! (She walks out of the room and they promise to not talk about it unless questioned)
This was actually a scene from a TV series about them and it’s extremely powerful because it’s extremely true that Hillary invested in the two of them, and even did it in her presidential campaign. It’s also hard hitting because it answers the long asked question, why didn’t you separate? Because it’s an arrangement. We all knew it was an arrangement after the scandal but I have no doubt they truly loved each other before this. Whenever they are asked about their marriage they deflect now because now it’s an arrangement but they insist it’s not and do a very good job of acting it out. It’s arguably the most impactful scene in the whole series because those questions about their marriage have been deflected ever since this scandal and we finally get the answers to how Hillary reacted, likely in an accurate way. This series is called “Impeachment American Crime story” I recommend watching it

I'm so glad we can now get accurate coverage on the important issues like the personal lives of world leaders.

Disappointed in Dana Bash…Yes Monica legacy will be Monica Lewinsky. I disagree with data that Bill Clinton’s legacy is all that he did open his presidential term. When I think of Bill Clinton I think of Gennifer Flowers, Paula Jones and Monica.
I think Monica was treated horribly by the media and us citizens as well. She will hopefully have her side of the story told in full soon. She's a victim
No she's not. She knew full well what she was doing. She was not forced to do anything. And being an adult she knew that there are consequences for every action. She is NOT a victim but a partaker.

The biggest difference is when Paula Jones first came out to accuse Bill was that she was forced upon by Bill , Paula has all the right to ride on MeToo, but Monica willingly choose to flirt with Bill and willingly say so that she loves him she willing playing the fire with a married president, Monica has a huge moral issue. Monica never sued Clinton she was merely being caught by their secret love affair. Paula Jones sued Bill Clinton in 1994, she stood up and was the real hero people forgot.
There is a huge power dynamic. The literal most powerful person in the world and an intern. I’m not calling it rape but it’s morally kinda fishy.
Gosh, to think of how we focus on so much of the wrong shit in this country. Unbelievable. But...what can you expect when you don't have a life of your own.
Dana Bash didn't "cover the story as it happened." She wasn't an on-air reporter until 2002; she was a specialty programming producer at the time.
Clinton never respected MeToo
It wasn’t around then
Does anyone remember the Barbra Walters interview with Monica that revealed that she had to leave her previous job because she had an affair with her married boss? It's right there in the interview. Barbra Walters got to her admit that. Innocent? I don't think so. Pattern ? Absolutely. And if she hates reliving it why keep talking?
She also admitted to low confidence and low self worth that contributed to making bad decisions, it does and can happen to anyone
Relevance?
@Proper that’s like exactly how Bill Clinton has described it lol, watch his segments in the Hillary doc about it. He talks about how low and politically pressured he felt at the time and how that led him to making poor decisions
At the time she was 19, he was her high school teacher........don't leave that out
What’s the comedians name at 5:00?
That's Bill Maher.
Too cringey to watch
That gooooood performance from them both at press conference
Why would Hilary stay with such a creep?
In 1992, I wrote extensively about what would become the Lewinsky scandal. I included Linda Tripp and the eventual dress turnover to the FBI that had the stains. Again, this was 1992.
But how did you know?
@@HopefulInterventions I wouldn’t know how to explain this to you. I see things before they happen

🍔Hey at least Clinton wasn't talkin to the rooskies
He did a $500000 speech in Russia days after Hillary sold 20% of uranium to them!
Gosh, how the times have changed.
Who here missed the 90s?
How did it come out in the 1st place?? That wasn't clear
She was set up by Linda Tripp. Her so called friend. Only one to go to jail. A Clinton hater.
1:15 Looks like AI Gore knows that he's lying.
That Woman. How sad for her.
It is amazing how a pure opportunist...over time has co-opted a movement (Me2) to be reinvented as a victim. Kardashian...before the Kardashians. She and her mother should have called the book " HOW TO PIMP A PRESIDENCY "...PRESIDENT who got played
She has nothing to do with the #metoo movement. She made a choice as an adult.
Bill is going to continue to live his life as he pleases; his wife will stick by his side regardless and it’s no one’s business. Hilary strengthens their relationship and any one that sends or attempts to break their bond will only fail and suffer.
This President is the reason Why I listen to Young Dolph in 2021!
RIP
Bill and Monica were great together she should run 2020
The villains here are Ken Star, Linda Tripp, and Bill Clinton.
"This is not rocket science"7:24 😆🤣😂
Why would me too be part of this and it was consental stop it man
I think because me too is also about abuse of power.
@@marybishop6105Abuse of power and the compromised position of power.
Hillary looks so funny with the yellow hair and yellow dress 😅😂
Oh My God No To Me Too
It's sad that, even up until this day, not much has changed, as evidenced by this year's election.
With the Epstein list reveal be about to happen, any thoughts of Bill Clinton now?
Monica should have known Bill wasn’t all that into her. He never went down on her. She was the one doing all the work.
This is not the reason why the media coverage of politics is different
15:35- Candy Crowley- the moderator of the Obama-Romney debate that teamed with President Obama to defeat Romney? Icons don’t take sides
Old news move on PLEASE
Odd it popped for me now as I was looking up B. Clinton reference the Epstein list reveal. That’s search engines for you. Some things just won’t stay buried.
this narrative is not entirely correct either. ML was also vilified due to the First Lady's earlier reaction with G.Flowers.
Monica was not a young girl. She knew what she was doing.
she was a young girl. 22 is young. yes she knew what she was doing. bill knew what he was doing as well.
@@alexamiller5325 she was 24 🤦🏻♀️ by that time she should be FULLY aware of her actions and consequences cmon now she wasn’t a teenager. She was a GROWN woman already
@@dontcare8964 ~ Actually, she was 22 when it started. Yes, she should have had more sense by that age. I'm sure you did and I did as well. But by most accounts, Monica was immature for her age and quite emotionally unstable. Although she was willing, Clinton chose to trifle with a young woman that he knew wasn't a fully formed grown-up. Heck, if you're going to have an ADULTerous affair, at least select an ADULT.
