They may have gotten really creative to get 100 different ways to say his name
Don't forget Slick Willy! That guy's always up to no good!
I actually think Clinton is not on the list. Not because I don’t think he’s capable of such acts (which I tentatively do) but because engaging in such acts as a former president and with a wife with lofty political ambitions is a pretty high bar. And, perhaps most of all, with this congress and this DOJ and this president, if Clinton was on the list we’d absolutely know it by now.
I mean who could imagine Bill Clinton prioritizing a short term sexual gratification that might endanger the political career of himself or his wife.
If he does end up absent on the list, I think it’s precisely because of the Lewinsky scandal. Why would you make the same mistake twice.
And I’m certainly not trying to defend Clinton here, but we should keep in mind none of his (many) infidelities were illegal / with underage girls. Which, it needs to be said, didn’t make them ‘okay.’
I mean... maybe, but bottom line is people with impulse control issues, are known to repeat it in stupid ways even after it's out there... Look at Anthony wiener. Guy couldn't stop sending nudes while his damn investigation is going on. Sex addictions are compulsive, I cannot say with certainty how bad anyone's is. But I could say... if he couldn't keep it in his pants long enough to finish his term... I'd say there's a very reasonable chance his compulsions may be more extreme, and finding out more is going on and possibly continues to go on, would not suprise me in the least.
It wouldn’t surprise me either, I’m just not ready to consider it fait accompli.
Bill Clinton almost certainly belongs on the list. Furthermore, I think he is the primary reason the Democrats didn't/couldn't use Epstein to destroy Trump years ago.
That may have been plausible in 2016 (when Hillary was running,) but not in 2020 and 2024. There’s zero chance the DNC would’ve sat on evidence that would’ve convicted Trump to protect Bill.
Oh, my innocent child...
BoTh SiDeS
Both sides harbor sexual predators? Yeah, unfortunately that is obviously the case. I mean fuck, we know with 100% certainty that Billy boy stuck his dick in an intern, and he had a long history of sexual misconduct accusations. When the truth came out, his popularity went up. Instead of being marched out to irrelevance, he has remained an influential member of Democratic leadership.
You might not remember this, but when the Trump "grab 'em" tape came out it was right before a debate. Trump brought a whole gaggle of Bill's accusers to sit in the audience to call out the hypocrisy. A scandal they should have ended Trump made him stronger. I guess Billy boy fucked us all.
We get it comrade. BoTH SiDeS.
i also like to add even if maxwell names people that were on the list, whats to stop those accused from naming other people, including trump and other gop who could be on the list. also she would most likely have price on her head eventually.
I don't think Clinton's on the actual client list, either, even though we know he flew in his plane. But he is definitely on the list that they asked Maxwell to rubber-stamp.
If Clinton isn't on the list, it's only because he cut a deal to keep it off.
