    The easy answer is the person he was already in a relationship with before becoming President.

    We aren’t talking about just any citizen though, she was literally working for him. This is no different than a CEO and a secretary. The power imbalance is… Blatant.

    She says it was consensual. So I go with that, because even decades later it’s her view on the situation. That said, any President (just like any CEO, etc) having any sort of sexual relations with people they literally employ is a sexual predator. So yes, Bill Clinton is a sexual predator. I won’t go so far as to say she was sexually assaulted though, because she doesn’t consider it to be so.
