BOMBSHELL: Imagine if the Starr Report had been provided only to President Clinton's Attorney General, Janet Reno, who then read it privately and published a 4-page letter based on her private reading stating her conclusion that President Clinton committed no crimes.

University of Southern California law professor Orin Kerr on Tuesday mused about what the reaction would have been if the Ken Starr investigation into President Clinton’s conduct got the same treatment as the Mueller report.

Here’s his tweet:

Imagine if the Starr Report had been provided only to President Clinton's Attorney General, Janet Reno, who then read it privately and published a 4-page letter based on her private reading stating her conclusion that President Clinton committed no crimes.

Basically, he points out that the Starr report and its 453 pages was released in full, not summarized by Clinton’s Attorney General Janet Reno.

Trump Attorney General William Barr, on the other hand, distilled Mueller’s lengthy findings down to just four pages.

While the details of the Trump/collusion investigation still aren’t known, Starr’s investigation uncovered pornographic detail of Clinton’s relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky and was downloaded by 20 million people.

Here’s Lewinsky’s response to Kerr’s tweet:

‘if. fucking. only.’Monica Lewinsky

In other words, if only the details of her relationship with Clinton had been kept hidden behind a short summary from Reno perhaps Lewinsky could have avoided all the painful years of ridicule that followed.

Lewinsky’s tweet went viral overnight with an overwhelmingly positive response:

You win the internets with that one, Ms. Lewinsky.

. . . . .

Wishing you joy, humor, fabulousness, delight and a planet-sized dollop of well-being. Because what happened back then was… well… YOU know. Too well. The rest of us are only starting to see. Even then, we're blind.
