Monica choosing not to look like a 'victim' is a breath of fresh air tbh. It seems she doesn't want to just victimize herself but wants to bring the imbalance of accountability to the forefront.
I'm glad Monica is doing well. It would be horrible to have to publicly live with something I did in my early 20's. Tripp used this info to get her 15 mins of fame
She may have know what she was doing obviously, nobody is saying she didn’t. That doesn’t erase the fact that he was her boss, God he was the most powerful man in the world, he was the married one not her. The power imbalance was crazy! Men should be accountable for their own doings and he was never judged the way she was at 22.
He went on with his life, making big bucks to speak at whatever, she was treated like a big joke by any comedian out there ! If Me Too was around then he would have paid the price he’s nothing but another Bill Cosby ! 😡😡
The problem is they both showed sexual interest in each other. So if she would have at least resisted his actions most of America would have backed her. But instead she gave him head.
@@Ken9284 she was an intern and he was the president, and twice her age. That's an extreme power imbalance and he should have exercised some self control.
@@seanian8986 If she resisted his flirtations filed a sexual harassment suit on Bill then I would agree with you. But she was clearly just as interested to him as he was to her.
@@Ken9284 Clinton is the one with a higher responsibility to stop control his own flirtation and stop the eventual affair. He was the President. She was an intern. She wasn’t some sort of temptress as she was eventually portrayed to be, if she has no authority to exercise. If she was the only one interested and he wasn’t, he has more authority to separate her from him and bar her from working there, or even assert his disinterest and cite his presidency as the reason why. But because he was interested, he made no move to control his feelings. He instead allowed it to continue, in secret, even when his position as President made it extremely precarious
Sarah Paulson, I think does not understand Linda Tripp’s strength of conviction, patriotism and integrity painting her instead as broken, disgruntled; a sore loser w/ a chip on her shoulder. I doubt she conveyed Linda Tripp’s real motivations, on screen because of that communication road block. Also the script probably does not include Linda’s encounters w/ other women who did not see his perversions directed at them as consensual at all. An imbalance of power does indicate duress/coercion from the more powerful party and ‘does’ in legal terms quash consent. The fact that Monica still doesn’t quite fathom that Bill Clinton used and abused her, while Linda saved her is disconcerting. If Linda had not lead investigators to the semen stained blue dress, she and Monica would either be mur***ed or imprisoned is a reality that I think Sarah Paulson, the show’s creators and purveyors are blindsided to, still; sadly.

Exactly! IF it’s true that Monica and Bill planned to keep their affair secret, WHY would she “Accost Linda” and blab every detail?? Linda PRYED every bit of this info out of Monica by manipulating her and pretending to be her good friend!
She was a whistleblower not a conspiracy theorist and she proved her truth despite all the opposition she was and is still posthumously faced with.

Linda Tripp played by Sarah Paulson had a way of getting Monica Lewinsky to open up about her affair with Clinton even though Monica Lewinsky was cagey at first about it. That and the send up on Saturday Night Live by Jon Goodman in the role of Linda Tripp showed us the real Linda Tripp.
Sadly if men want to cheat they will. I’ve been married 17 years and have encountered many women that get starry eyed around my husband I know they cannot be trusted. Two people choose to have an affair sadly. It really comes down to the spouse if they want to not be faithful in their own marriage it’s their fault.
I've never seen Beanie Feldstein in anything before. But right after I saw her smile in the trailer…I fell in love. She did a great job. Give her all the awards she can carry.
Like David and Bathsheba. He used his power to take what he wanted and she suffered by losing her husband and her child. But it took years for son Solomon to grow and then become the King and the family uses ruler to ever live! I always empathized with Monica and felt she was completely mistreated and used. I hope her future is bright and I’m grateful for the work she has done. She is a beautiful, strong, gracious woman. She a true role model. Thank you

@@ashmitkumar3429 You're waaaay behind the times. That was the standard 40 or 50 years ago but "consensual" hasn't been good enough for a long, long time. Now any time a man enters into a relationship with a woman that he supervises it is basically considered sexual harassment because of the "power imbalance."
It seems to me that Lewinsky romanticized her "relationship" with Clinton. It's hard to believe Clinton was ever romantic towards Lewinsky. As for Linda Tripp, she was just jealous, bitter and self-loathing. Lewinsky learned the hard way how valuable discretion is. She just couldn't keep her mouth closed (pun intended) and made it so easy for Tripp, who hated Clinton more because he was a Democrat who deprived her boss of a second term than for what he was doing with Lewinsky. It ate her up inside, literally. If Lewinsky is hoping this story will gain her much sympathy, I doubt it will. It's been 25 years and she's made this episode of her life her career. It's sad, really.
She definitely romanticized it…but at the same time, the length of some of Monica and Bill’s phone calls does make you think what tf were they talking about lol. Being 22 and talking to the president for an hour is enough to make me understand why she got so head over heels for him during the time.
The same thing happened to Paula Jones. She was crying in an interview that all she read about herself was what a big, ugly nose she had, then guess what. She got plastic surgery too!
If ML made it into a position as a WH intern then she had to be intelligent enough to know what was going on and what she was up to. ML created her own problem.
In defense of Monica SHE WAS 21 YEARS OLD SHE WAS SO YOUNG REMEMBER WHEN U WERE 21 THE AGE APEAKS FOR ITS SELF only reason I don’t feel as bad for Hillary is bill had cheated before and she could have left him earlier I don’t think the power imbalance is really relevant I’m sure the affair it’s self didn’t hurt Monica but the media attention did.
Because she was obsessed with clinton in my opinion monica lewinsky was just a sad young woman with no good man in her life i would never understand why she sees in clinton i was 15 when the scandel broke news and i was disusted he was old enough to be her father yuck there i rest my case 😅😅😝

There are 10 examples of women that he did the same thing with or worse, and one example has numerous complaints! Not to mention all the women who never came out and exposed themselves to public scrutiny. Obviously he was a womanizer and was very very good at it. All of the above “affairs“ happened before Monica Lewinsky, Who was an insecure slightly overweight girl at age 22. She had only had one man show her any kind of affection prior to this, a college drama coach. Who she discovered was married after their little relationship had been going on for quite a while. And you want to put all the blame on her? I don’t know that I would put any of the blame on her. Reread his history again, compare it to hers, He was a sexual predator. And although she has never wanted to be known as a “victim”, it is obvious that that is exactly what she was.
I was a kid when this happen, one of the most prevalent things I remember was the body shaming on lewinsky calling her fat and ugly. Watching this pictures , she was a total babe
I would love for "American Crime Story" to do an installment on the Leopold and Loeb 1924 murder case involving the murder of a 14 year old boy named Bobby Frank's. I have been fascinated by this case for years and the Wikipedia page on this case is very fascinating and think that it would make for a great limited tv series.
just cuz she was ultimately betrayed, doesnt absolve her of her part which is everything. MONICA SHOULDNA BEEN EFFIN WITH NO MARRIED DUDE, Yo, Nooooo..
What’s the relevance of this story. This was 25 years ago. An adult who went to a married man. She knows Bill is married. They were both consenting adults. So get a life and move on. Rotten tomatoes!!!!
This presidential affair that happened over 20 yrs ago just never goes away. Every few years we are reminded over and over again. Many famous people cheats and have affairs but this one just sticks and keep blowing up every now and then thanks to a willing participant, Lewinsky, who wants to stay relevant and not forgotten for this achievement and contribution to rewrite history
@Ron K Her claim to fame is to make sure the world knows she slept with the president and continues to do so until this day. There is no shame or embarrassment, I think she revel in the attention.
@@lenac3587 oh I think that is very unfair. She had said nothing and tried very hard to remain Out of the public eye for 10 years. Then she saw a very sad story about a young man who committed suicide because of cyber bullying. One of his so-called “friends“ outed him for being a homosexual and it flew all over the Internet to everyone who knew him. This was the catalyst for her public speaking today, not necessarily about her affair, but to fight cyber bullying. Remember, the Internet had just gotten its legs when all of this happened to her, so in reality she was the first person to ever experience cyber bullying. Bill Clinton was a womanizer, and he was very good at it. Gennifer Flowers, Juanita Broderick, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willy, numerous students when he was a professor at the University of Arkansas, Leslie Millwey, Eileen Wellstone, Sandra Ellen James, these were all women who had accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault and even rape before Monica Lewinsky. But it was before there was an Internet. With Monica, it basically went live. The Internet followed everything real time, so hers is the name that is remembered more than any of the 10+ other women mentioned above. And she is still suffering from cyber bullying. You just did it yourself. So that is her relevance today, fighting cyber bullying and in truth she is one of the best examples of it out there.
Just watched Monica's Ted talk. One problem with her views. She is saying that actions should be followed without consequence. However, like Einstien said, what goes up, must come down. A balance in the universe. Science, physics doesn't support her notions.Plain physics. consequences always follow actions.However, the message should be, have that network to support you and nuture it. You will need it one day. And, choose your actions carefully. BtW she did go from a private figure to a public one, but again, she chose a public figure, a high profile one at that, and hence she paid the price for that
I still don't feel sorry for her! Look at all the money 💰 she's making out of this affair! It didn't hurt her one bit! She was not a teenager! She like messing around with married men.
"It didn't hurt her one bit" she nearly killed herself and the scandal was attached to her name for the rest of her life. Bill Clinton gets to be other things - to be thought of as more than this - but she only gets to be *this* in people's eyes, always. Anytime people mention her name, it's about this. It's inescapable. You don't feel sorry for her, but I feel sorry for you and for any women you know.
@@marytorres4843 you shouldn't be involved with people who are in a relationship, but NOT BECAUSE you'll be crucified and ostracized, and shamed by worldwide media. That is NOT justifiable, any way you put it. ESPECIALLY because it was incredibly unbalanced, the way people thought of her and the way people thought of him.
It makes me wonder, will a scandal like this one happen in Canada? That is the problem with politicians that are young and attractive having a secret relationship with a young female intern.
This sordid story, replete with an assortment of tawdry characters, has been repeated ad nauseum. Considering her assertions of victim status, it odd that she ties her best to keep herself and her story of ''servicing'' Clinton in the public eye. It's not exactly a riveting tale from anyone's "position." "Cringeworthy'' pretty much sums up the entire episode, as well as Lewinsky's attempt to cash in on it.
monica was 21 years old at the time. this was devastating for her. my god, she was a child in so many ways. there was never any defending linda tripp. no way. she was despicable.
I dont know about her but I was a pure child at 21 and many years after that. Had my first crush on a married man at 18 most likely but I never wanted to destroy his marriage or family. I kept thinking how lucky his wife was to have him for herself.😊 Sure not pretty as Monica and had no career goals or ensnaring a powerful man goals at the time because that is how children think.😊
Monica's parents condo in the Watergate towers was next door to then speaker of the house Bob Doles apartment. Bob Dole followed Clinton so closely during Clinton's first trip to congress he almost had his feet under the back of Clinton's shoes
@HIV_Virus4Sale Asia's Singapore seem to be having more such scandals these days. Such things must be quite common in Asia as well but not at the top levels in Asia, am guessing. Asian girls are quite pretty, it wud be tough for any well to do man to stay away from appreciating Asian girls while he was still married. It is the irressitibility factor of Asian girls. Infact American women were considered very prudish,this girl Monica was quite a snare and exactly what they were looking for..😊🎉 @HIV_Virus4Sale
Great series & very well portrayed.I have to say I didn't think Linda Tripp was particularly ugly b4 her plastic surgery.It seems that if yr don't look like a top model these days & groomed to within an inch of yr life yr deemed unnatractrive or ugly . . . . That can't be right!

@@infinitytoinfinitysquaredb7836 Actually, Monica repeatedly said it was consensual. It may have been inappropriate from Bill’s part, but I don’t think it was harrassment. His situation with Paula though…
@@abdulrahmanahmed8563 If it hadn't been consensual, it would be rape not sexual harassment (something Bill Clinton has also been accused of). But in the workplace today and then, it's considered sexual harassment for a boss to have sexual contact with a subordinate because of the power imbalance. And it's considered especially egregious when it's with a young intern. Hey, I don't make the rules.
I feel bad for both Monica & Bill Clinton, not to mention HRC. Linda Tripp will never be redeemed in my opinion. Backstabbed Monica. No forgiveness. Thinking about Brett Kavanaugh - did you feel for Clinton while you were screaming? Ken Starr, 4 years but you set a trap, didn’t you. George Conway and I had liked him but he wanted a piece of the action. Monica was used by lots of people. 😢 Lots of disappointments
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and 3 other ducks are somehow are in the same pond....I guess its the only way you can get to the facts...an 8 part mini-series....I hope there is anther 8 part mini-series on the Clintons life after this....

Mônica Lewinsky is beautiful and she Will obtain indeed an expressive votation for President in 2024😊😊😊
Wish to meet the strong woman, not that woman but THE woman, Ms Lewinsky
I hate that she’s older and this is still the biggest thing in Monica’s life.
I guess only positive is she can make money off of it…
I love how she was like “I hope they go easy on Monica” and then probably turned the tv on and saw a man portraying her on snl.
I would love for "American Crime Story" to do an installment on the Leopold and Loeb 1924 murder case involving the murder of a 14 year old boy named Bobby Frank's. I have been fascinated by this case for years and the Wikipedia page on this case is very fascinating and think that it would make for a great limited tv series.
Hillary Clinton will enjoy this movie 😍😍😍😍
Trip was Monica's handler. Dirt politics everywhere.
just cuz she was ultimately betrayed, doesnt absolve her of her part which is everything. MONICA SHOULDNA BEEN EFFIN WITH NO MARRIED DUDE, Yo, Nooooo..
don,t tell your business to anyone..and beware of super charming people
Wondering why all the other American crime stories are streamable on Netflix in the USA but this one isn’t … I WONDERRRRR 🤔🤔🤔
What’s the relevance of this story. This was 25 years ago. An adult who went to a married man. She knows Bill is married. They were both consenting adults. So get a life and move on. Rotten tomatoes!!!!
You have a problem with all true stories or just the ones that show a Democrat man-pig?
so ur saying u wouldn’t get that bag if the media do u wrong all these years ? 🧐
Linda Tripp had a complete facial overhaul rendering her facial features more feminine.
Monica wasn’t the first and will not be the last and Linda wasn’t the first and surely will not be the last
a riveting series. with shocking things i had not known.
No-one will sleep with the most powerful man on earth and not shout it from the roof top, I get why she couldn't keep her mouth shut. It's the thrill.
well you can hold my beer- Marilyn Monroe and JFK
Bad karma for her because she had slept with a married teacher before this from age 19-24
Paulson is such a wise woman aside being an outstanding actor
This presidential affair that happened over 20 yrs ago just never goes away. Every few years we are reminded over and over again. Many famous people cheats and have affairs but this one just sticks and keep blowing up every now and then thanks to a willing participant, Lewinsky, who wants to stay relevant and not forgotten for this achievement and contribution to rewrite history
@Ron K Her claim to fame is to make sure the world knows she slept with the president and continues to do so until this day. There is no shame or embarrassment, I think she revel in the attention.
@@lenac3587 oh I think that is very unfair. She had said nothing and tried very hard to remain Out of the public eye for 10 years. Then she saw a very sad story about a young man who committed suicide because of cyber bullying. One of his so-called “friends“ outed him for being a homosexual and it flew all over the Internet to everyone who knew him. This was the catalyst for her public speaking today, not necessarily about her affair, but to fight cyber bullying. Remember, the Internet had just gotten its legs when all of this happened to her, so in reality she was the first person to ever experience cyber bullying.
Bill Clinton was a womanizer, and he was very good at it. Gennifer Flowers, Juanita Broderick, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willy, numerous students when he was a professor at the University of Arkansas, Leslie Millwey, Eileen Wellstone, Sandra Ellen James, these were all women who had accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault and even rape before Monica Lewinsky. But it was before there was an Internet. With Monica, it basically went live. The Internet followed everything real time, so hers is the name that is remembered more than any of the 10+ other women mentioned above. And she is still suffering from cyber bullying. You just did it yourself. So that is her relevance today, fighting cyber bullying and in truth she is one of the best examples of it out there.
Just watched Monica's Ted talk. One problem with her views. She is saying that actions should be followed without consequence. However, like Einstien said, what goes up, must come down. A balance in the universe. Science, physics doesn't support her notions.Plain physics. consequences always follow actions.However, the message should be, have that network to support you and nuture it. You will need it one day. And, choose your actions carefully. BtW she did go from a private figure to a public one, but again, she chose a public figure, a high profile one at that, and hence she paid the price for that
I still don't feel sorry for her! Look at all the money 💰 she's making out of this affair! It didn't hurt her one bit! She was not a teenager! She like messing around with married men.
kind of agree
"It didn't hurt her one bit" she nearly killed herself and the scandal was attached to her name for the rest of her life. Bill Clinton gets to be other things - to be thought of as more than this - but she only gets to be *this* in people's eyes, always. Anytime people mention her name, it's about this. It's inescapable. You don't feel sorry for her, but I feel sorry for you and for any women you know.
@@liv97497 that's why you never mess around with a married man! No matter who he is!
@@marytorres4843 you shouldn't be involved with people who are in a relationship, but NOT BECAUSE you'll be crucified and ostracized, and shamed by worldwide media. That is NOT justifiable, any way you put it. ESPECIALLY because it was incredibly unbalanced, the way people thought of her and the way people thought of him.
@@liv97497 when you mess around with a married man your asking for trouble no matter who he is. She was a grown ass woman!
Sick of hearing about Monica Lewinsky!
I would prefer Barbie Ferreira as Monica I don’t know why she wasn’t cast
Same the Marilyn Monroe did with JFK
No
Diese Ausgewogenheit macht es zu einer beruhigenden und erholsamen Farbe - perfekt für die Gestaltung stressabbauender Außenbereiche.
It makes me wonder, will a scandal like this one happen in Canada? That is the problem with politicians that are young and attractive having a secret relationship with a young female intern.
Monica has blossomed into a rather beautiful woman. Yes she made mistakes, but so do we.
This sordid story, replete with an assortment of tawdry characters, has been repeated ad nauseum. Considering her assertions of victim status, it odd that she ties her best to keep herself and her story of ''servicing'' Clinton in the public eye. It's not exactly a riveting tale from anyone's "position." "Cringeworthy'' pretty much sums up the entire episode, as well as Lewinsky's attempt to cash in on it.
Boring
They always denied their affairs
Can't wait for Trump's many crimes inspired movies. Might be enough to furnish 2 movies per year for the next 2 decades.
Can't get Trump out of your head?
Only if the "crimes" are the ones in liberal heads.
@@rosssmith8481 nope, just like Trump can't get Obama or that he loss the elections out of his head.

monica was 21 years old at
the time.
this was
devastating for her. my god, she was a child in so many ways.
there was never any defending linda tripp. no way.
she was despicable.
I dont know about her but I was a pure child at 21 and many years after that. Had my first crush on a married man at 18 most likely but I never wanted to destroy his marriage or family. I kept thinking how lucky his wife was to have him for herself.😊 Sure not pretty as Monica and had no career goals or ensnaring a powerful man goals at the time because that is how children think.😊
21 is not a child. Quit the lack of accountability. Even 12 year olds know better.
@@acd23_listsand you were not a kid. Be accountable.
Beanie is doing great in Hollywood. Sarah killed it as always. This is such an amazing series.
First two episodes basically make everyone besides Clinton mildly retarded. That was enough for me
Why is ML acting like a victim
Why they choose an actress who looks nothing like Monica
Did a gay dude cast this?? Monica was a chubbster but she was cuter than that, damn...
There are a lot a lottttt Linda's out there.....
I really could care less.
Okay and?
Also again, it's not about men abusing women it's about women abusing other women.
It’s complicated!
Talk about beating a dead cigar.
Literal GOP pedophiles used this affair as marketing fodder for 25 years... and THEY're Republican pedophiles!
I wish Darrol Hammond and Molly Shannon would have played Clinton and Monic
OLD NEWS !
NEXT!
I did not know Linda Tripp Passed away
Linda(RIP) if wasn't for you, this wouldn't of happen. You betrayed you're own friend.
Bill was lucky to be able to drill such a beautiful girl.
She was a chubby 4 when that happened, but compared to Hillary.
She was a 15.
He only drilled her face.

Victims of Patriarchy
Monica's parents condo in the Watergate towers was next door to then speaker of the house Bob Doles apartment. Bob Dole followed Clinton so closely during Clinton's first trip to congress he almost had his feet under the back of Clinton's shoes
I thought it was "Larry Tripp"?
You are the prettiest and sexiest women in the entire universe Monica Lewinsky already!!!
Can you please leave Asians alone??? Are you happy now???
@HIV_Virus4Sale Asia's Singapore seem to be having more such scandals these days. Such things must be quite common in Asia as well but not at the top levels in Asia, am guessing. Asian girls are quite pretty, it wud be tough for any well to do man to stay away from appreciating Asian girls while he was still married. It is the irressitibility factor of Asian girls. Infact American women were considered very prudish,this girl Monica was quite a snare and exactly what they were looking for..😊🎉 @HIV_Virus4Sale
Great series & very well portrayed.I have to say I didn't think Linda Tripp was particularly ugly b4 her plastic surgery.It seems that if yr don't look like a top model these days & groomed to within an inch of yr life yr deemed unnatractrive or ugly . . . . That can't be right!
A lesson to learn from
2:22 snitches get stiches
Yup
48 years old. Wow she looks incredible. That’s my age well I’m almost 48 I guess a lot of my friends look as good as her. But seems like older people look younger these days. Lol that sounds funny. “When I was young..” lol.
Traitor Tripp!
By today's standards and even the standards at that time, Monica was a victim of sexual harrassment. Do you deny that? Yet you only show scorn for the woman who reported it.
@@infinitytoinfinitysquaredb7836 Actually, Monica repeatedly said it was consensual. It may have been inappropriate from Bill’s part, but I don’t think it was harrassment. His situation with Paula though…
@@abdulrahmanahmed8563
If it hadn't been consensual, it would be rape not sexual harassment (something Bill Clinton has also been accused of). But in the workplace today and then, it's considered sexual harassment for a boss to have sexual contact with a subordinate because of the power imbalance. And it's considered especially egregious when it's with a young intern. Hey, I don't make the rules.
she was young 22 or 24 we all imature at that time and make mistakes or have crush etc
Monica will always be in love with Bill Clinton.
WELL MONICA BLEWENSKI CAME OUT ON TOP.. LITERALLY
I know Monica did that work,WEll...
Liar liar liar Clinton
Linda did well
How was your first day?
No one cares.
난 르윈스키가 엄청난 돈을 벌고 살고 있을 것으로 생각했습니다. 잘못한 것은 맞지만, 어린 나이의 실수이고, 클린턴이 더 나쁜 사람이죠. 르윈스키가 난 엄청 인생을 잘 살고 있을 줄 알았어요. 지금도 멋지지만, 너무 상심하지 말고 멋지게 살길 바래요.
I feel bad for both Monica & Bill Clinton, not to mention HRC. Linda Tripp will never be redeemed in my opinion. Backstabbed Monica. No forgiveness. Thinking about Brett Kavanaugh - did you feel for Clinton while you were screaming? Ken Starr, 4 years but you set a trap, didn’t you. George Conway and I had liked him but he wanted a piece of the action. Monica was used by lots of people. 😢 Lots of disappointments
I don't understand why they used a shorter chunky girl for Monica! I'm just asking.
대통령 역할은 나이가 더 들어보이고, 르윈스키 역할은 덜 이쁘고 더 뚱뚱한 소녀를 골랐어요. 아마도 나이든 높은 지위에 있는 분의 관심에 쉽게 호감을 가지는 순진한 젊은 여성으로 표현하고 싶었을까요?
She wants money
르윈스키는 클린턴이 관심주는 것이 진심이라고 믿었고, 클린턴은 한때 스치는 감정이었을 뿐이었습니다. 클린턴이 더 나쁜 사람이죠.
SO, they made her a heroin.
Shame!!
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and 3 other ducks are somehow are in the same pond....I guess its the only way you can get to the facts...an 8 part mini-series....I hope there is anther 8 part mini-series on the Clintons life after this....
