Why do you think Hillary Clinton stayed married to President Bill Clinton after he cheated on her with Monica Lewinsky?

[sage2021]

I always wondered why she didn't divorce him for that and the big scandal that went on for months. Do you think she set a precedence to show other women to stand by your man even if he cheats on you? Many famous people divorced their spouse for cheating on them, but she didn't. Do you think she should have divorced him? She must have been terribly hurt and embarrassed because it was all over the news, and he was even impeached for it. What you say?

That was a loveless marriage for political reasons. She wanted to be president, but is anti-charismatic. Even people who detest Bill Clinton tell me he lights up a room. He’s gregarious, he remembers everyone’s name, he’s slapping them on the back.

While she was First Lady of Arkansas, a state trooper had the unmitigated gall to say “Good morning, ma’am.”

She said “It’s bad enough I have to look at you shit kickers all day, I don’t want to have to talk to you, too!” It is a punishment in the Secret Service to be assigned to protect Hillary Clinton, she is such a miserable bitch to subordinates.

Someone with an amoral, sociopathic, unbridled lust for power will put up with an equally amoral partner who helps her in her quest for power. She and Obama detested each other, too, but worked together.

I think Obama made her Secretary of State rather than Vice President because he wanted to live more than six months into his presidency.

Political expediency. The Clinton foundation would lose money, they can continue to ride each other’s coat tails and stay in the limelight.

[OlderAndWiser]

They may have had some genuine feelings for each other at one time, but it appears that it is merely a marriage of convenience and they have both benefitted in the political arena. Divorce wouldn't change the amount of embarrassment - if she is capable of that emotion.

[MzAsh]

I believe she wanted to, but she already had plans to run for President in her future. She would have been wise to forget him, her campaign and move on with her life completely.

[FunkyMonkee]

It's ALL a show!! Mostly, because of HER political aspirations! She's only married to him to use him to climb her own political ladder! In reality, she can't stand him!! Some of Bill's security people have come forward and said how she would have TERRIBLE fights with him in the White House!! She'd yell, scream, call him every nasty name in the book and several that aren't in the book, throw things at him, she is ONE NASTY, sick, twisted little bitch and even the security had to get out of any hallway she happened to be walking through or she'd throw fits about having to see them!! They weren't allowed to look at her or talk to her!! And I'm only scratching the surface!!

[Metallsturm]

> She must have been terribly hurt and embarrassed

She probably was embarrassed that a serial rapist like Bill isn't even capable of keeping his dick in his pants while at work, but I strongly doubt she was hurt at all. By the looks of her, she doesn't even love or care about him (nor he loves/cares about her); they're more of a political union that are beneficial for each other in terms of power, money and influence. Divorcing him would just be a waste of time and money.

In the US spouses are not in contempt of court for refusing to testify against each other. With all the sketchy things both of them are involved in they need that protection.

In the US, rank in the Democrat party is often determined by victimhood status. Since she has no substantive ideas, record, or credibility to run on, she is left with appealing to something everyone will understand.

[WindAtMyBack]

I'm sure she always knew he was a playboy. She probably knew that before she ever married him. For whatever reason she puts up with it - possibly because she's ambitious as hell and was more concerned about her ambitions than about his fidelity.

I've never heard anything about it, but it wouldn't surprise me if she cheated on him also.

[rtj1211]

She wanted to be President and she knew her husband knew more about becoming President and being President than almost anyone in the USA.

[exitseven]

It is true love, what other reason could she have. ?

[maximumpower]

It wasn't the first time - not even close. She knew of his screwing around for years. Read up on his exploits at Oxford.
They have had little do do with each other as a married couple for decades. Reason she stayed with him was to further her own career - nothing else.

[Guy__]

Everything happening in their families is staged and preplanned.

[Stevepro68]

Infidelity is personal. Whatever her reasons everything else is pure speculation. Given her political course and the fact that she stayed with him. She would hardly be the first wife of a powerful man to agree with infidelity.

[Surely]

She needed the power and protection that Slick Willie could give her!

[Anonymous]

with normal people it would be love but with those two it's because they have to much dirt on each other as in who killed who and where the bodies are burried

[888theGreat]

He cheated with more women than that. She stayed with him so she could run for President.

[Anonymous]

Hilary Clinton's addiction is power, not Bill. She realized he was her only link to it.

[goaded]

He was impeached for lying about it, while being investigated for a real estate deal. It would never have made it to an indictment, if they hadn't been out to get him. Maybe they had an open marriage.

[Anonymous]

They were both banging other women on the side. She knew.

[RavVid]

I think Hilary decided it was to her career advantage not to divorce. Bill Clintons ex-wife would not have had the same panache as wife.

[AviatorTom]

That's a personal question that only she knows the answer to. Anything I might say would be total guesswork.

[CuriousMufuxka]

Really? Bill was up to a lot more than getting his dick sucked in the oval office! Do you really think that she didn't know the goings on before the man even ran for president?

[jongreat46]

She chose to forgive, I never liked hillary but damn; she can't catch a break for that; if she divorced then she would be a bra waving feminist, but then she stayed; she is a housewife with no brains, wtf, can't you people leave her alone.

[Vendela]

So let me get this straight, if she divorced her husband who was disgustingly unfaithful to her and publicly humiliated her, she would be a crazy feminist? You sound so fucking ass backwards it's actually funny

[jongreat46]

@Vendela I am talking about what conservatives you fallace loving prewn; I don't care if she left or not; she stayed and that is that; get over it.

[jongreat46]

I am talking about what conservatives say you fallace loving prewn; I don't care if she left or not; she stayed and that is that; get over it.

[Vendela]

My apologies, I read your comment a second time and then I understand what you actually meant. This is embarrassing

[Vendela]

Wow you got triggered fast 🤣

[jongreat46]

@Vendela she stayed with her husband; if you don't like it then write a letter to her and tell her how you feel she is a small-minded housewife with no brain of her own.

[Vendela]

Ok I'm bored of you now. Blocked

[jongreat46]

@Vendela I don't care; can't handle the heat then come with facts and not insults.

[jongreat46]

@Vendela if you don't insult me, then I will forget about it.

[Staximus]

@Vendela snowflake meltdown

[jongreat46]

@Staximus really, even if it was a mistake; the fallace loving troll attacked first without reading; it really shows their maturity level.

[Vendela]

@jongreat46 @Staximus My maturity level? I literally apologized and he kept on and on like some child lmfao y'all should get a room

[jongreat46]

@Vendela yeah right; apology or no; if you do not know something; THINK FIRST BEFORE ATTACK, so no you are not mature.

[Staximus]

@Vendela I was talking shit about @jongreat46, not you

[jongreat46]

@Staximus well screw you both.

[Anonymous]

That relationship is an arrangement. Those two sold thier souls long ago. I pretty sure Hillary doesn't really feel anything anymore... if she ever did.

[HippieVeganJewslim]

Some people are more forgiving than others. G-d is the All-Forgiving the Merciful, according to the Qur’ān.

[Guardian45]

She was attempting to minimize the impact on the prospects for her political career. Unfortunately, she didn't count on Putin and his puppet, Dump.

[JamesRandiDebates]

It was never a marriage of love. It was always just political

[OddBeMe]

Are they the only couple that stays together for power or family?

[KrakenAttackin]

Because without Bill, Hillary is nothing.

[Anonymous]

Maybe she also have secret sexual relationship with George Soros...

Politicians never do lose making deals.

[Googlemyahoo]

Its a political marriage nothing more.

[Twalli]

She probably took her vows seriously

[Jennz6]

Made her feel important

[Dez_37_46]

Power, money, and privilege. It feeds her ego.

[Fireguy17]

Politics, the appearance of looking bad to voters.

[Staximus]

For his political connections and influence

[TroyDT]

She wanted to be POTUS.

[Sabretooth]
