On the other hand:

Now Bill’s affair with Monica Lewinsky was not a sexual assault, but it was the exercise of power by a powerful man over a subordinate young woman.

In the #MeToo movement, Bill would be considered the equivalent of a sexual assault perpetrator because 22-year-old Lewinsky was not in a position to give true consent to such a powerful older man.

Hillary was asked if she thought, in retrospect, Bill should have resigned.
