Juanita Broaddrick responded to former president Bill Clinton’s assertion that norms have “changed” on what you can do to someone without their consent.

Clinton said in a PBS interview on Friday that he believes things that would have been acceptable in regards to sexual consent when he was in office are now considered to be disqualifying. (RELATED: Bill Clinton Claims Sexual Consent ‘Norms Have Changed’)

“I think it’s a good thing that we should all have higher standards,” Clinton said. “I think the norms have really changed in terms of, what you can do to somebody against their will, how much you can crowd their space, make them miserable at work.”

Broaddrick, who accuses Clinton of raping her in 1978 when he was running for governor of Arkansas, tweeted about Clinton’s statement on Monday.

“Bill Clinton thinks he should get a pass because it was 1978 when HE RAPED ME,” she wrote. “and HE knows it’s not acceptable in today’s society?”
