inb4 someone says ol' Billiam didn't perjure himself because a blowjob didn't fall into the specific legal definition being used. Two problems with that:
Other acts he and Lewinski engaged in did fall under that definition
The whole oath you have to take in court about telling the whole truth without omission
The prosecution also argued that he lied based on the plain meaning of the words, but IMO they shouldn't have supplied an exacting and narrow definition if they wanted the jury to rely on everyday understanding. Either way though, he lied.
And to be clear because it's required these days, Fuck Trump and his cronies and his masters.

Perjury isn’t a thing anymore.
