Dick Morris Confirms a Huge Rumor About Bill and Hillary Clinton

PJ Media ^ | 4/17/2026 | Matt Margolis

Dick Morris has finally confirmed what many people have long suspected: Bill Clinton, while sitting in the Oval Office, seriously entertained the idea of divorcing Hillary — and he had his longtime political advisor run the polls to find out if he could survive it politically.

Morris, who advised Clinton for years, as far back as his 1970s gubernatorial campaigns in Arkansas, appeared on Newsmax and dropped a bombshell that has somehow received far too little attention.

When host Rob Finnerty asked Morris to confirm the rumor, the answer was blunt.

"Yes, actually several times," Morris said. "It was a constant topic of conversation between then-President Clinton and myself, and the storminess of the Clinton marriage made that relevant."

It was actually four or five times, by Morris's count. The man wasn't merely curious; he kept returning to the question.

Morris said the first time was the most consequential,(snip)

This was all happening before the 1996 re-election campaign against Bob Dole, so Clinton was genuinely weighing whether to cut Hillary loose before asking the American public to give him a second term. All while Paula Jones was in the picture, Gennifer Flowers had already gone public with her claims of a 12-year affair (which Clinton eventually admitted to), and Monica Lewinsky was waiting in the wings.

But here's where it gets even more interesting. When Finnerty suggested Clinton was considering divorcing Hillary, Morris pumped the brakes on that framing.

"I'm not sure that would be divorcing Hillary," he said. "The issue — it was in part Hillary divorcing him."

I’m sure it was mutual, to be honest.

SHE PRODUCED CHELSEA-—A PRODUCT OF WEB HUBBLE-—NOT BILL”S KID.

[econjack]

They deserve each other. On the other hand, America doesn’t deserve them.

[bankwalker]

Like I’ve said for many years....If she hadn’t married Bubba, we’d all be going “Hillary who?”

If Mario Cuomo hadn't bowed out of the primaries because papa Bush had a 92% approval rating, we would've never heard of the Clintons.

[jerod]

Bill had his intern Monica Lewinsky... And Hillary had hers... Huma Abedin. The great thing about Huma... She kept her mouth shut, so she never blew Bill and she never told anybody about the intimate relationship between Hillary and her.

[Bshaw]

Had they divorced, I wouldn’t have cared then, and certainly wouldn’t care now.

I think I speak for most men when I say, I would understand.

[Leaning Right]

Up next: Bombshell! Dick Morris says Andrew Jackson had a bad temper.

[AppyPappy]

Keep in mind, at the time she ran for President, Bill had been deeply involved with Jeffery Epstein.

[alternatives?]

Hillary did not have the political skills to win without Bill.

All while Paula Jones was in the picture, Gennifer Flowers had already gone public with her claims of a 12-year affair (which Clinton eventually admitted to), and Monica Lewinsky was waiting in the wings.

The MSM was doing everything in their power to deflect attention from these things, and to justify them. We got lots of articles about how lying is good for relationships and how Slick Willy's affairs didn't affect his ability to lead the country.

“Nasty human.”

Human?

[Reily]

Don’t know about that! The media started promoting him right after his 1984 or 1988 Rat convention speech. They were calling him the “Education Governor”. Arkansas had moved up a tic in education rating. Probably more due to statistical noise then anything Slick sponsored.

[Hot Tabasco]

seriously entertained the idea of divorcing Hillary

26 years later and they're still married. He couldn't have been that serious.

And how reliable is Dick Morris anyway?

[Tom Tetroxide]

If Bill divorced or threatened to divorce Hillary she would make that call....

[Fido969]

Who cares.

[Dr. Franklin]

Well, it would have been interesting to see how Hillary handled the child support for Chelsea, Web Hubbell’s daughter.

[ZOOKER]

This is old news --- Always known or suspected.

So why is it being reported now? To put the Clintons back into the news cycle? Now why would they want to do that?

[null and void]

There’s always the escape clause. - “To death do we part”

If Bill made the move to divorce, there is only one way Hillary!™ could avoid him being compelled to testify against her.

A way she is more than capable of arranging one more time.

After the first dozen or so, what’s one more?

And who would dare question the grieving widder Clinton?

[libertylover]

Like I’ve said for many years....If she hadn’t married Bubba, we’d all be going “Hillary who?”

And which is why for many years I've referred to her as Mrs. Bill Clinton on this forum.

[null and void]

As you say...

[newfreep]

...he grieving widder Clinton...

Is that a typo that should be "the wider Clinton"?
