Bill Clinton bristles at questions on Lewinsky, #MeToo
WASHINGTON — Former President Bill Clinton says the #MeToo movement is overdue. In an interview with NBC’s “Today Show” released Monday, Clinton bristled at questions over whether he should have resigned 20 years ago over his sexual relationship with the White House intern and whether the #MeToo movement has changed his perspective. Lewinsky wrote in March that their relationship “was not sexual assault” but “constituted a gross abuse of power.” “I dealt with it 20 years ago, plus,” said Clinton. That’s all I have to say.” Clinton is promoting his new fictional thriller, “The President Is Missing,” with best-selling author James Patterson. And while he said he supports the #MeToo movement, “I still have questions about some of the decisions which have been made.” Clinton said he doesn’t think President Donald Trump has gotten a free pass, but that Trump’s alleged exploits haven’t “gotten anything like the coverage you would expect.” Trump has been accused by more than a dozen women of sexual misconduct and was caught on tape bragging about grabbing women’s crotches.
