    Create a section:Bill Clinton#Relationship with Jeffrey Epstein

    [edit]

    [1].~2025-34501-56 (talk)20:39, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    There is already astandalone article on that subject. Maybe it could be linked somewhere in the body of the article?A. Randomdude0000 (talk)20:58, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    You are justifying creating the section based on Clinton's birthday message to Epstein and not more broad details related to their relationship. I don't mind the section being created, but I do hold an objection to it being created based on the justification of a simple birthday message Clinton sent. As there is also already a standalone article about their relationship, the section would have to be much smaller too, perhaps the size of the onein the Donald Trump article.MyGosh789 (talk)22:40, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    It also shouldn't exclude how their relationship was set up likely through Ghislaine Maxwell, with Virginia Giuffre even later stating that Ghislaine Maxwell "loved to talk about how easily she could get former President Bill Clinton on the phone"-a hint that she arranged meetings between Epstein and Clinton, which Maxwell even alleged in August 2025 that she would do during the times Clinton and Epstein met-[2][3] and also how "she and Epstein had visited the White House together when Clinton was in office."[4] Maxwell has claimed that Clinton "was my friend, not Epstein's friend."[5]MyGosh789 (talk)23:07, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    IsVirginia Giuffre a reliable source on Maxwell'sbragging? She certainly had motive to be hostile to Maxwell.Dimadick (talk)07:30, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, she is. She is a victim.~2025-35113-26 (talk)12:00, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Second term portrait?

    [edit]

    I think it would be a good idea to have the info box show a portrait for the second term since we have second term portraits for Obama and Trump in their articles. I've written to the Clinton library to see which one of the pictures on Commons is the second term portrait and will replace once I get more details if everyone agrees.~2025-40234-37 (talk)22:18, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Why does it say Clinton was joint most popular president leaving Office when everyone knows he was the most popular president of all times when leaving Office ? Clinton had 66. % approval rating, Reagan had 63 % approval rating.~2026-20807-1 (talk)19:53, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

    Protected article

    [edit]

    Hello,Why is this page protected from editing in light of the Epstein files? Either unlock the page for editing, or do the editing yourself. Then you can go back to claiming that Wikipedia is not biased~2025-35113-26 (talk)19:35, 20 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    This article already talks about his relationship with Epstein. – Muboshgu (talk)19:43, 20 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    And? There's new information that had to be added.~2025-35113-26 (talk)23:56, 20 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    What new information? That he swam in a pool next to Ghislane? – Muboshgu (talk)00:15, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, and also when a victim was sitting on his lap. The dump contained a lot of new info.
    If Trump was on those pics, the wikipedia editors would be up in arms already~2025-35113-26 (talk)00:25, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh they are up in arms,.there's a separate dedicated article for trump-epstein bromance and there's a lot and actively updated and it is linked to main Trump article~2025-42070-64 (talk)01:45, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Exactly what I said. Even after the dumps confirmed that Trump and Epstedin hated each other. Democrats get a pass as usual~2025-35113-26 (talk)11:18, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    If anyone has a serious suggestion to improve the article, you can propose a specific edit supported byreliable sources. If you want to play victim and complain about how biased we are, while making shit up that suits your narrative, we won't engage further and you'd probably find Conservapedia to be more to your liking. – Muboshgu (talk)14:58, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes Clinton was most popular president of all times leaving Office not koknt most popular. Clinton had 66 % approval ratings leaving Office while Reagan had 63 % approval rating.~2026-20807-1 (talk)19:56, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

    Restore the Epstein section

    [edit]

    Why is there such little mention of Clinton's very public relationship with Epstein? There used to be tons that were removed.~2025-39650-38 (talk)06:20, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    They removed that part and then locked the article from editing. Then they talk about Wikipedia being unbiased~2025-35113-26 (talk)11:58, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    FollowingWP:SUMMARYSTYLE, it wasspun off intoRelationship of Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein. Which you know, since you'vecomplained there too. – Muboshgu (talk)15:04, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Moving this content into a spinoff article is valid, but why is it so buried in this article? The only link there is a bluelink under the words “a relationship” and easily missed. It seems to me that a link to that article should be in the hatnote for that section.Peter G Werner (talk)17:10, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    FYI, see alsoPost-presidency of Bill Clinton#Relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.A. Randomdude0000 (talk)21:19, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Clinton had highest approval ratings leaving Office not joint highest

    [edit]

    Clinton had the highest approval ratings leaving Office of all presidents with 66 % making him the most popular president of all times. Ronald Reagan was second with 63 %. This is very documented so saying joint most popular president is completely wrong and should be removed and say the president with highest approval ratings of all times instead~2026-20807-1 (talk)19:59, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

    Where are you getting your numbers?
    In the article, in the "Public Opinion" section, we are saying that Clinton's approval rating was 68%. We are getting that figure from a poll published by CBS News. That poll says that Clinton and Reagan both had 68%.
    It's up to you to figure out why those CBS numbers are different from whatever numbers you are using.Bruce leverett (talk)21:30, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
