Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton relationship: Hillary Clinton’s letters to Diane Blair

Explosive secret documents have revealed that Hillary Clinton claimed that President Bill Clinton didn’t have a relationship of “any real meaning” with Monica Lewinsky and the former White House intern was a “narcissistic loony toon”.

Hillary Clinton made the frank remarks to her best friend in 1998 as the American public reeled from Monica Lewinsky’s claims of nine meetings with the president in the Oval Office.

Days after the news of the affair broke, Hillary Clinton stood stone-faced beside the president as he vehemently denied any such liaisons took place at a press conference.

Hillary Clinton later wrote in her autobiography that in reality she felt “dumbfounded, heartbroken and outraged” at finding out her husband had lied to her and the public – an act that ultimately led to his impeachment in later that year.

The documents can now be revealed that Hillary Clinton told best friend Diane Blair that Bill Clinton was driven to infidelity in part by his political adversaries, the loneliness of the presidency, and her own failures as a wife.

The revelations come in a collection of letters and notes by adviser Diane Blair, a political science professor Hillary Clinton described as her “closest friend” before Blair’s death in 2000.

The letters have only come to light today after the Washington Free Beacon published them.

The archive includes correspondence, diaries, interviews, strategy memos, and contemporaneous accounts of conversations with the Clintons ranging from the mid-1970s to the turn of the millennium.
