Denise Rich said she contributed generously to Democrats because she wanted to support her country, and she did nothing wrong in helping her ex-husband get a presidential pardon.
“I feel that what I did is right, and I would do it again,” she said in an interview in New York for ABC’s “20/20” that will air tonight.
Rich also denied she ever had a sexual relationship with President Clinton, who pardoned her former husband, Marc Rich, in January.
