Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shared a number of details about her early 50-year marriage to former President Bill Clinton in her new memoir.

"I've said this for many years, nobody really knows what happens in a marriage except the two people in it. And every marriage I'm aware of has ups and downs - not public, hopefully for everyone else - and you have to make the decisions that are right for you. And I would never tell anybody else, 'stay in a marriage, leave a marriage,' whatever the easy answer is. And you know, for me and for us, I think it's fair to say we are so grateful that at this stage of our life, we have our grandchildren. We have our time together," Clinton told CNN's Fareed Zakaria in an interview this past Sunday.

Clinton recently published her new memoir, "Something Lost, Something Gained," which included a number of sections focusing on her husband's high-profile sex scandals that shocked the nation and led to an impeachment trial in the 90's. Clinton ultimately admitted to having a sexual affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky in 1998.

The two-time presidential candidate did not mention Lewinsky by name in her latest book, though she did make reference to "dark periods" that threatened the couple's marriage.

Clinton wrote that while she was "deeply hurt" by the scandal, at one point describing it as "one of the darkest" points of her life, she also saw the story as a "political ploy" to destroy her husband's presidency.

"My reality, on the one hand, I was deeply hurt, deeply confused, really upset, angry. And on the other hand, I knew that this was a political ploy to try to drive, you know, Bill out of office, and I thought he'd been a really good president, and I resented that as an American citizen, that these hypocrites, who, you know, had all kinds of their own stories about, you know, my marriage and everything else, were going after him because of a very unfortunate, you know, incident in his life.

The Russian collusion hoax architect  went on to complain about the "hypocrisy" and "cruelty" displayed by Republicans in the impeachment trial.
