Bill Clinton, whose presidency was thrown into turmoil over an affair with a young staffer, has admitted there were times he wanted to ban the press from the White House, as President Donald Trump recently did, but he refrained.
“There were lots of times when I wanted to ban the White House press corps,” the former president said to laughter at the Clinton Global Initiative summit earlier this week. “And there's a reason we have a constitution. Because none of us are immune from being pissed off."
