14 DAY TRIAL // Though it’s been more than 15 years since US President Bill Clinton engaged in a clandestine relationship with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky, who was 22 at the time, the past is coming back to haunt him.
The National Enquirer obtained one 4-minute recording of Monica Lewinsky pleading with Clinton to meet with her the next night, as well as several desperate love letters she sent him after he ended their affair, the Daily Mail reports.
Said affair took place in 1997 and was uncovered one year later, when Lewinsky played the tape just now emerged to a friend, and she leaked it.
At first, Clinton denied ever having had relations “with that woman.”
On the just unearthed recording, Lewinsky is trying to get Clinton to meet her and even offers him instructions on how he should go about it so that their meeting isn’t recorded anywhere.
She also suggests doing regular stuff that couples do, like going out for a movie and eating takeout, as if the former would ever be possible.
The alternative is a meeting at her place for the purpose of lovemaking.
“Since I know you will be alone tomorrow evening, I have two proposals for you, neither of which is you not seeing me. So just deal with it!” she says, as cited by the aforementioned media outlet.
“I [can] quickly sneak over and then we can have a nice little visit for, you know, 15 minutes or half an hour. Whatever you want. I would really, really, really, really, really like that... My other proposal... maybe we could go over and watch a movie together and just have kind of, I don't know, boxed dinners or something...,” Lewinsky says on the tape.
“Those are the two proposals and you can't refuse me because I'm too cute and adorable and soon I won't be here anymore to pop over... I'm very persistent but I really want to see you... I could take all my clothes off and start...,” she continues.
As noted above, the National Enquirer obtained the tape, together with various love letters. It claims a cleaner had them all this time, having been instructed in 1998 to destroy them as the scandal took over the local and international media.
Apparently, the cleaner kept them without realizing, and then forgot she had them.
The tab also notes that this new scandal could put a damper on Hillary Clinton’s proposed run for President at the next elections.
