POD: In 1997 Judge Wright rules that Paula Jones' legal team is not "entitled to information regarding any individuals with whom President Clinton had sexual relations or proposed to or sought to have sexual relations and who were, during the relevant time frame, state or federal employees." As a result, Monica Lewinsky never comes up during Clinton's testimony and deposition over the course of the Paula Jones' lawsuit.
How does the rest of Clinton's Presidency go without the impeachment mess? Does his affair with Lewinsky ever get exposed? More generally, how is Clinton viewed differently in such a timeline? Who wins in 2000?
Yes I know there's another thread about the Lewinsky situation being avoided, but that's a year old thread. And besides, I'm not saying Clinton never has an affair with her, just that the affair never comes up in a legal setting so it never becomes the basis for an impeachment drama.
