After watching Thomas, Hill and their witnesses testify, 58% of Americans said they believed Thomas, while only 24% said they believed Hill. And there was no gender gap – only 26% of women believed Hill. Hill’s story simply never added up. Hill also displayed her possible political motives for this testimony in 1998, when she publicly defended Bill Clinton against several credible sexual harassment charges. She admitted that pro-choice women groups will defend pro-choice men against sexual harassment charges, acknowledging a double standard on the issue.
