Former President Bill Clinton Speaks up
The conversation around leadership and accountability took center stage during a candid interview with former President Bill Clinton, aired on “CBS Sunday Morning” on June 1, 2025.
Clinton didn’t hold back as he reflected on the state of U.S. politics, specifically addressing the conduct of President Donald Trump and the fitness of President Joe Biden.
When asked whether President Trump’s power has limits, Clinton replied confidently, “Oh yeah,” and pointed to the judiciary—ironically, including many of Trump’s own appointees—as the key institution reining him in.
According to Clinton, Trump’s repeated attempts to sidestep legal boundaries show a concerning trend, but he believes there are mechanisms in place to push back.
Still, he warned that if those efforts to evade accountability succeed, they could inflict lasting harm not just on Trump himself, but on the nation.
