The Rape Allegation Against Bill Clinton, Explained
On Wednesday, Juanita Broaddrick tweeted a reminder of her allegation that Bill Clinton raped her during his campaign for governor of Arkansas in 1978:
I was 35 years old when Bill Clinton, Ark. Attorney General raped me and Hillary tried to silence me. I am now 73….it never goes away.

Over the phone, Broaddrick confirmed to me that the account is hers, and said she was moved to tweet because she was sickened by seeing the Clintons on the campaign trail again. “I guess it was just seeing them on TV so much now, and her with the Benghazi [hearing],” Broaddrick says. “That was impossible, to watch her during that, and now having to see her on the TV, and on the TV campaigning, it’s torture. I have to grab and switch my TV every time I turn around.”
