    Oh I think there was plenty of outrage from Hillary. He’d have felt that behind closed doors.

      If she’d opened that door, she might not have lost in 2016. Hard to respect the judgement of someone who was still married him after all that. Her loss was a perfect storm of a lot of factors, but I believe that was one of them.

        The other thing they could have done is just be honest about their relationship . Their marriage is political and economic, and they may very well have great affection for each other - I don’t know. But they clearly don’t expect fidelity in their relationship, and if that’s what works for them that’s fine. Just be honest about it.

        I have a lot more of a problem with Bill taking sexual advantage of a 22yo intern while he was President of the United States. That power imbalance makes consent nearly impossible, and I’m still mad at my fellow Dems for defending that.

        He should have been impeached for that, not the trumped-up perjury bullshit.

        We also would’ve had an incumbent President Gore going into 2000, which might have been nice.
