    Nonsense. He was 49 and she was 22. Furthermore, he was the President of the United States. There was a massive power imbalance. She was pressured by him just being in the position he was in. Maybe it shouldn’t have been exposed to the public, but he absolutely took advantage of her and she was very brave once it was exposed.

      I disagree, she was 22, she knew what she was doing. She was ambitious, and probably hoped for favors.
      It’s just like the idiotic sentiment that Melania Trump is somehow OK, and was considered somewhat a victim when Trump was president, she knew perfectly well what she was doing, and all evidence shows she’s as batshit as her husband.
