true. but that isn't what the orange sexual predator said. he said he "kisses women whenever he feels like" and "grabs women by the *****" because he can. he also said he liked watching 15 year old beauty pageant contestants undress.
he's a perv and so are you if you think that was ok.
That wasn't okay, but while Trump was making alpha male type empty joking and bragging that never actually happened, Bill Clinton actually assaulted and raped many women, other than Monica. And apparently for decades it was Hillary's job to attack his accusers and make it go away. Yup, Hillary, the symbol of women's rights. We literally had a Harvey Weinstein type character in the White House, and the Democratic Party went out of their way to justify his actions and defend him. And now they have this faux outrage for everything Trump says or does, while the majority of sexual assaulters seem to be the same people that are symbols of the anti Trump resistance and major donors to the Democratic Party.
There are quite a few women who say that Trump did grope them, assault them and engage in a variety of sexual misconduct.
You merely ignore them.
And Monica *never* claimed to have been raped.
Remove your head from the sand please:
Juanita Broaddrick
In a 1999 episode of
Dateline NBC, former Bill Clinton volunteer Juanita Broaddrick alleged that, in the late 1970s, Clinton raped her in her hotel room. According to Broaddrick, she agreed to meet with Clinton for coffee in the lobby of her hotel, but Clinton asked if they could go to her room to avoid a crowd of reporters; she agreed. Once Clinton had isolated her in her hotel room, Broaddrick states that he raped her. Broaddrick stated Clinton injured her lip by biting it during the assault.
[5][6] In 1999, Clinton denied Broaddrick's allegations through his lawyer.
Supporters of Clinton have questioned her account by noting that, when Broaddrick testified about her alleged encounter with Clinton under oath, she denied having been raped by him. In her NBC interview alleging rape, Broaddrick stated that she had only denied being raped under oath to protect her privacy. Supporters of Clinton have also noted that she continued to support him, and appear at public events on his behalf, weeks after the alleged rape, and that Broaddrick stated that she couldn't remember the day or month the alleged incident occurred.
[7] Broaddrick has stated in 1978 that she revealed the alleged assault to five intimates, and that they advised her not to cause trouble for herself by going public.
Paula Jones
According to Paula Jones' account, on May 8, 1991, she was escorted to Clinton's hotel room in
Little Rock, Arkansas,
[8] where he propositioned and exposed himself to her. She claimed she kept quiet about the incident until 1994, when a
David Brock story in the
American Spectator magazine printed an account. In 1994, Jones filed a federal lawsuit against Clinton, alleging sexual harassment. In the
discovery stage of the suit, Jones's lawyers had the opportunity to question Clinton under oath about his sexual history; in the course of this testimony, Clinton denied having had a sexual affair with
Monica Lewinsky, a denial that (once his affair with Lewinsky was exposed) would lead to his impeachment for perjury and obstruction of justice.
[9]
Several witnesses disputed Jones's account, including her sister and brother-in-law. These witnesses contended that she had described her encounter with Clinton as "happy" and "gentle". In addition, Jones had claimed to friends that Clinton had a particular deformity on his penis, a claim that was revealed to be false by investigators.
[1]
In April 1998, the case was dismissed by Republican Judge
Susan Webber Wright as lacking legal merit.
[10] But Jones appealed Webber Wright's ruling, and her suit gained traction following Clinton's admission to having an affair with Monica Lewinsky in August 1998.
[11] (This admission indicated that Clinton may have lied under oath when he testified, in the Jones case, that he had never had a sexual relationship with Lewinsky.)
On appeal, in the midst of his trial for impeachment based on his testimony in the Jones case, Clinton was faced with the prospect of having to go under oath again and testify more about his sexual history. Instead, Clinton agreed to an out-of-court settlement, paying Jones and her lawyers $850,000 to drop the suit; the vast majority of this money was used to pay Jones's legal fees.
[12] Clinton's lawyer said that the president made the settlement only so he could end the lawsuit for good and move on with his life.
[13]
Kathleen Willey
In 1998, Kathleen Willey alleged Clinton groped her without consent in the White House Oval Office in 1993.
[14] Kenneth Starr granted her immunity for her testimony in his separate inquiry.
[15][16]
Linda Tripp, the Clinton Administration staffer who secretly taped her phone conversations with Monica Lewinsky in order to expose the latter's affair with the President, testified under oath that Willey's sexual contact with President Clinton in 1993 was consensual, that Willey had been flirting with the President, and that Willey was happy and excited following her 1993 encounter with Clinton.
[2] Six other friends of Willey confirmed Tripp's account in sworn testimony, stating that Willey had sought a sexual relationship with the President.
[3] Ken Starr, who had deposed Willey in the course of investigating the sexual history of President Clinton, determined that she had lied under oath repeatedly to his investigators. Starr and his team therefore concluded that there was insufficient evidence to pursue her allegations further.
In 2007 Willey published a book about her experiences with the Clintons.
[17]
Gloria Steinem and Joy Behar controversies
In a 1998 op-ed for the
New York Times, feminist icon
Gloria Steinem said of Willey and Jones, "Mr. Clinton seems to have made a clumsy sexual pass, then accepted rejection.”
[18] Generally dismissive of other women who came forward with tales of Bill Clinton, her piece exemplified a certain kind of reflexive feminist defense of Clinton.
[18] It received some criticism when it was published.
[19] But then with the passage of time, as evidenced in 2017 by the words of
The Atlantic, Steinem's essay had become "notorious" in that "It slut-shamed, victim-blamed, and age-shamed; it urged compassion for and gratitude to the man the women accused."
[20]
Two decades after most of the events in question, on the U.S. television program
The View, co-host
Joy Behar referred to Bill Clinton's accusers as "
tramps". Behar apologized for the
sexual slur shortly afterwards.
