Lewinsky ended up marring Clinton's legacy.
Clinton is still young. Barring accidents or ill health, it is possible that he will play a role in the United Nations, or become involved in New York politics in the future. I am uncertain how much he understands Biblical prophecy, but he may certainly be placed in an international affairs position in the future.
