4 American presidents charged with sexual scandals

Including artists and politicians here, and many other public faces that have millions of worshipers thanks to their dedication, yet these scandals are disappointing them. Among these are politicians, like presidents, prime ministers from around the world. They include the most powerful presidents, those of the United States, who have been involved in these scandals, writes Metro newspaper.

You can read below four stories of American presidents' scandals, Bill Clinton Lyndon Johnson, John Kennedy and Donald Trump.

Bill Clinton
Before the election as President Bill Clinton faced a number of charges of sexual assault. He then gave false testimony to a sexual relationship with an intern at the White House. The process of dismissal began for him, but he was acquitted. It was a time when the internet had just begun:

There's no question that Bill Clinton was lucky. If the scandal had broken out after the internet was massive, Clinton probably wouldn't have held the post,” says historian Richard Reeves.

Lyndon Johnson
President Lyndon Johnson showed rare talent while a member of Congress. Biographers say he also had a number of extramarital relationships. But he was not the first to be known for such stories. Many historians believe Thomas Jefferson had children out of wedlock with his slave Sally Hemmings. One historian says that it is not surprising that some politicians have such relationships outside of marriage. The policy itself relies on the art of temptation. That's what these people do in their career,” says historian Richard Reeves.

John Kennedy

John Kennedy was known for dealing with a number of women before and while he was president. But many Americans did not know this aspect of his life while he was alive. Outside marital relations between two adults are not illegal. We need to differentiate between those who are aiming for relationships with minor-age individuals, for example, with 14-year-old girls. In cases of connections between two adults, although it may be unpleasant, it would not be illegal,” says legal expert Ariel Gros.

Donald Trump

In 2005 Donald Trump recorded aloud, commenting on improper acts with women. This case is worth mentioning, for he was boasting that he touched women between their feet, which would be described as sexual assault. It was a legal act. But the evidence is his words,” says expert Ariel Gross. Many men, including presidents, often exaggerate events to boast, says historian Reeves. Likewise, the man and woman in the incident can provide different versions of the event, enabling supporters and rivals to comment on these stories, whether they are true or not.
