i didn't even realize president clinton has written a book okay but like a fiction with that
00:11
like he's one of the best-selling authors in the country james patterson okay he they co-wrote a
00:17
book about i believe what would happen if the president got kidnapped or something like that
00:22
i didn't realize that he wrote fiction i didn't either i knew he had a book about himself he's
00:26
got some crazy the president somebody who's a former president had crazy insight to ask what
00:31
would happen if the yeah right and i think that's why james patterson wanted him wanted him to be a
00:37
part of this book because to get some real real scary real perspective on yeah it's called the
00:44
president is missing a thriller where am i about uh the president combating both a cyber attack
00:51
look under desks i'm probably under there i was actually just in a brothel i didn't
00:56
we found him so we found him yeah a new political thriller is called the president is missing
01:02
anyway so they've been out promoting this right and as you can imagine it they you know they talk
01:07
a little bit about the book and then everyone's like hard-hitting questions yeah right let's get
01:10
him while we got him who cares about the book right that's what they did on the today show um reporter
01:15
craig melvin was talking and did the fluff bit about the book and let's talk the weird part is
01:22
the uh that james patterson this author is old as dirt he's sitting there too during this whole thing
01:27
and then it gets heated talking about malik monica lewinski here's how it played out on the today show
01:35
one of the things that this this me too era has done it's forced a lot of women uh to speak out
01:40
one of those women monica lewinski she wrote in an op-ed that the me too movement changed her view
01:45
of sexual harassment quote he was my boss he was the most powerful man on the planet he was 27 years
01:51
my senior with enough life experience to know better he was at the time at the pinnacle of his career
01:55
while i was in my first job uh out of college looking back on what happened then through the lens
02:01
of me too now do you do you think differently or feel more responsibility no i felt terrible then
02:09
and i came to grips with it did you ever apologize and no yes and nobody believes
02:16
that i got out of that for free you are giving one side and omitting facts mr president i i'm not
02:24
i'm not trying to present a side no no i'm you asked me if i agreed the answer is no i don't and i
02:30
asked if you'd ever apologized and you said you had i have you've apologized i apologize to everybody
