In 1998, Clinton , who was the president, encountered an unprecedented career crisis.
A well-known scandal ruined his prestige and image. In addition, the enemy who had been fighting with him for many years also seized the opportunity to publicly impeach Clinton with the intention of making him give up his position as president.
Fortunately, Clinton barely saved his position, and his wife Hillary made great contributions in this matter.
When Clinton's presidential throne was in danger, Hillary publicly came forward to support her husband, and finally calmed the storm as she wished and successfully escaped danger.
This incident that made Clinton nailed to the pillar of shame was the famous "zipper door".
In the eyes of the outside world, the biggest victim of this matter is Clinton's original wife Hillary. Clinton openly cheated during their marriage and ignored the couple's relationship for many years. Poor Hillary not only had to choose to endure, but also withstand the pressure of public opinion to help her husband clean up the mess.
In fact, except for Hillary, the heroine Lewinsky in this incident was also deeply affected. After this storm, Lewinsky was expelled from White House and lost her previous decent job.
In view of the fact that staying in the United States would only attract more contempt and ridicule from others, Lewinsky later decided to go to the UK to live.
is just a "zipper door" and the impact is widespread and bad, so that Lewinsky had no way to find a job for a while, and no company was willing to hire such an employee with a stigma of reputation in his eyes.
can only be said that Clinton's momentary lust ruined Lewinsky's originally broad and bright future. After the
scandal was exposed, Clinton sincerely apologized to the public and released a public official TV speech at the time, but he did not express any apology to Lewinsky before and after his speech.
Even in the years that followed, many media tried to re-report the old things, trying to make Clinton make a clear statement to Lewinsky and formally apologize to him, but Clinton remained silent and never mentioned apologies.
It was not until 22 years later that in his wife Hillary's personal documentary that Clinton finally let go and publicly apologize to Lewinsky with the help of the camera. However, in everyone's opinion, this light apology came too late.

In June 1995, Lewinsky successfully graduated from university with outstanding results. After graduating from
, Lewinsky's mother relied on her good connections to seek opportunities for her daughter. In this way, Lewinsky finally had the opportunity to enter the White House and contact the political leaders of the United States as an intern.
Here, Lewinsky met Clinton, who was so romantic at that time. In her personal book " My Love ", Lewinsky focused on recording the process of her acquaintance and love with Clinton.
"The first time I saw the president standing on the stage at such a close distance, I felt that my heart stopped beating, and I was completely shocked!"
"He has an indescribable magnetic field, and his whole body exudes the sexy temperament of a mature man. I finally understood in my heart at that time: why so many girls are fascinated by him."
It is reported that Clinton had only been the president for three years. Because of his outstanding ability and mind, Clinton quickly made convincing and admirable political achievements, and established a very good personal image outside.
Clinton, who is in a high position, deals with all kinds of important things every day, and his life is inevitably boring and boring. The 22-year-old Lewinsky is like a beam of sunshine, bringing long-lost vitality to Clinton's airtight world.
Moreover, Clinton always had a special preference for the opposite sex, and preferred women with plump and bright personality. At that time, Lewinsky was wearing a gray formal outfit, and his figure looked protruding in front and raised back, which was naturally particularly hot in Clinton's eyes.
Clinton almost fell in love with the new female intern at first sight. When he first met, he took the initiative to narrow the distance between the two. He stepped forward to shake hands with Lewinsky and talked with his eyes, his eyes were endlessly gentle and seductive.
Clinton is mature and elegant, easy-going and funny, and is very fatal attraction to Lewinsky. The two of them became familiar with each other and received each other's hot signals.
During this period, Lewinsky successfully passed the internship assessment due to his excellent performance and was finally officially hired by the White House.
At that time, there were major loopholes in the relevant procedures of the US fiscal budget, which led to the White House's fiscal revenue being insufficient. In order to reduce expenses, the White House decided to let most internal staff take temporary leave and leave only a few employees to continue working.
At that time, Lewinsky volunteered to stay and serve the government, which also created more opportunities for her and Clinton to have secret contact.

November 15, 1995, the second day after the White House stopped part of its office, Lewinsky was working hard and discussing evening party activities with his colleagues around him.
Just then, Clinton walked in and greeted the staff cordially and naturally, indicating that Clinton was here to inspect the department, but in fact, "the drunkard's intention was not to drink." Clinton's real intention was to meet Lewinsky who made him think about it day and night.
Clinton kept staring at Lewinsky affectionately while no one was paying attention, and his hot eyes successfully ignited Lewinsky's originally calm heart.
The two so tried every means to find opportunities to be alone sweetly. After the party in the evening was successfully over, Clinton still couldn't contain his desire and suggested that Lewinsky visit his private office.
Lewinsky naturally did not refuse the president's kind invitation. The two then tiptoed to Clinton's office, and then kissed like thunder and fire.
In this huge presidential office, Lewinsky unzipped Clinton's first zipper, which is also the true origin of the statement "zipper door".
Since then, Clinton and Lewinsky's relationship has heated up. In the eyes of others, the President and the young staff are getting closer and closer. Most of the time, they are following each other, and even make intimate actions without any concealment.
According to relevant information recorded in National Archives , from 1995 to 1997, Lewinsky and Clinton had committed improper behavior in the presidential office no less than ten times.

The two thought they had done a very good job of confidentiality, but they didn't know that it was the end of "the story broke out".
After the two people's affair was exposed, Clinton and Lewinsky were both pushed to the forefront of public opinion. So who is the so-called whistleblower?
It is understood that after the White House resumed normal work, Lewinsky's unusual relationship with Clinton had long been seen by people around him. For this reason, Lewinsky's boss was afraid of causing more trouble and took the initiative to transfer her to the Ministry of National Defense.
Then, Lewinsky met his best friend Linda Tripp in a new environment. The two hit it off at first sight and soon became close friends who could say everything.
Lewinsky told the other party about her affair with Clinton, and also revealed his idea of becoming the president's wife.
It has to be said that Lewinsky was indeed obsessed with Clinton almost madly, and he secretly saved the skirt with Clinton's body fluids.
Lewinsky would never have thought that every time he shared a romantic story with Linda on the phone, he was secretly recorded by the other party. I wonder what Linda intended to do this.
In 1998, an ordinary employee named Paula Jones publicly accused Clinton of ill-gotten plotting and intending to sexually harass him.
At that time, the lawyer commissioned by Jones needed to search for evidence about Clinton's suspected offense to women, and finally found Lewinsky's best friend Linda through various evidence guidelines.
Under the strong lobbying of the lawyer, Linda finally decided to take out the recording evidence she had secretly saved and handed it over to the prosecutor for processing. This 22-hour tape also became the official fuse of this incident.
Overnight, Clinton became the object of being despised and despised by the outside world. The dignified president did such a miserable thing, and the outside world naturally could not tolerate what Clinton did.
It is worth mentioning that lawyer Paula Jones also found Lewinsky, hoping that he could provide more reliable evidence to confirm Clinton's charges.
At first, Lewinsky chose to deny it because he did not change his mind to Clinton and protect Clinton from public opinion to the greatest extent.
However, in order to protect himself, Clinton had to come forward to officially express his opinion to the public, lying that he did not know Lewinsky, and all rumors from the outside world were false rumors.
Seeing Clinton directly erase his efforts and existence, Lewinsky was completely slandered by his attitude. In anger, Lewinsky suddenly changed his tone and took the initiative to admit the fact that he had an affair with Clinton.
At the critical moment, Lewinsky took out the dress he had hidden when he was having sex with the president, which was left with Clinton's DNA.
Seeing Klin being roasted on the fire by various accusations, his wife Hillary personally came forward to defend her husband's image, and angrily accused Lewinsky of having ulterior motives and deliberately fabricating facts to damage her husband's image.
However, Lewinsky's dress eventually played an important role. Clinton was so ill-proved that he could not defend himself. In desperation, he had to plead guilty publicly and apologize for his national speech.
Take advantage of this opportunity, Clinton's enemies united to attack him, trying to impeach Clinton with a gimmick that obstructs justice.
Fortunately, Hillary, who was very skilled, took action, helping Clinton regain his seat in panic, and finally the impeachment of the president ended in failure, and the matter was left in vain. After the storm, Clinton was still safe and worry-free in his original position, and continued to shine in the political arena with the help of his wife and enjoy the limelight.

On the other hand, Lewinsky has been suffering from constant "humiliation" since the scandal was exposed.
After being forced to expel the White House, Lewinsky couldn't even find a job, and people around him even put on "colored glasses" to look at her, making Lewinsky, who was originally arrogant, live in a dark and dark way.
In a media interview, Lewinsky once revealed in despair that he once thought of suicide, and this incident also made her parents unbearable.
For this reason, Lewinsky decided to go to the UK to continue his studies and give himself a chance to make a complete comeback.
As time goes by, the outside world gradually forgets this matter, and Lewinsky gradually clears away the fog of life and embraces a brand new life.
Because of her previous experience, Lewinsky began to use her popularity to host the show, and also created her own clothing brand, and began to turn the situation around in her career.
Just the "zipper door" incident to Lewinsky will inevitably be difficult to heal for the rest of his life. Now Hillary is taking every step forward and becoming a leader in American politics. Many netizens are also keen to mention this matter again and repeatedly "fight" Lewinsky.
In the eyes of rational netizens, Lewinsky in this matter is undoubtedly a victim and deserves Clinton's apology and confession, but Clinton has refused to put down his posture for many years and made it clear that he is not at fault.
It was not until 2020 that Clinton, who was already 74 years old, took the initiative to mention this matter in Hillary's documentary, claiming that he cheated on Lewinsky at that time to relieve work pressure.
Taking this opportunity, Clinton apologized publicly, admitting that the incident had a terrible impact on her people.
Facing the camera, he left a passage like this:
"Maybe it's because I'm getting older, I hope it's because I'm going through more experiences. Anyway, I did something wrong in the past, that's the stupidest thing I've ever done. This is not a defense, I just want to explain, I feel terrible."
Speaking of Lewinsky, he said: "This incident has troubled Monica's life, this is the right thing to do. She was too unfair. "
Regarding the incident at that time, Clinton claimed: " did that to relieve anxiety and to relieve work pressure. At that time, it was indeed a rare relationship that arises on the basis of voluntary between the two parties. "
Fortunately, Lewinsky was not a vulnerable weak person. After achieving certain achievements in her career, in 2014, she officially joined Twitter .
With the help of the Internet, she comforts and encourages all people who have experienced online violence with her own personal experience, and advises more young people not to love brain and to stay awake and rational in love.
In terms of love, in 2003, Lewinsky met his soul mate, a handsome Indian man from a wealthy family. The two tied the knot in 2007. From the muddy ground to the warm spring flowers, Lewinsky finally ushered in a life of hardships and sweetness.
As for the past with Clinton, Lewinsky once couldn't let go. In her personal works, Lewinsky still used a large space to recall this past.
Now that she is asked about this topic again, she usually smiles and acts calmly.
Everything is unbearable, just like Lewinsky showed, only by seeing through right and wrong can you come to your heart, and past mistakes should not be paid for in your whole life.
