Following multiple sexual misconduct allegations made against high-profile politicians like Roy Moore and Al Franken, former top advisers to President Obama and the Clintons have voiced their support for Monica Lewinsky.
During an interview with MSNBC, Jennifer Palmieri — the communications director for Hillary Clinton who also worked for Bill Clinton‘s administration — said that she was sorry for everything Lewinsky had gone through.
“Monica Lewinsky was my intern and the relationship the president had with her was very inappropriate,” she said. “It was a consensual relationship, but he was the President of the United States and she was a 24-year-old intern — that is taking advantage of a power dynamic on a historic scale.”
She also revealed that in April she ran into Lewinsky for the first time in 20 years and “I told her that I was really sorry for everything that she had been through.”
“Her whole life was defined by this one mistake and her life was — I don’t want to say it was ruined because I hope it’s not,” she added.

"This is not about Bill Clinton or the news ignoring past accusations against him. This is about accepting the accusations against Trump and Moore at face value, without question. Instead of ignoring the accusations against Clinton then, the news is ignoring problems with the accusations against Trump and Moore now."
The Democrats and the news media are not turning on the Clintons. They all have too much to lose. Look at how reporting on Roy Moore has changed over the last week. The news started being "fair" only after accusations against Harvey Weinstein and Al Franken went public, and after celebrities started speaking up. This is all to create the false appearance of fairness that has consequences for only one side.
Trying to get rid of the Clintons before the 2018 midterm election.
