Donald Trump may have a dubious title, that is, the only president to be impeached twice, but he is not the only big man to have caused scandals in his term...

On January 20, Biden was sworn in as the 46th president of the United States, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the United States.

A star-studded inauguration is already planned, with actor Tom Hanks presenting a 90-minute prime-time special, with stars such as Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake and Demi Lovato performing live.

Many hope that Biden will take office smoothly after the controversial tenure of his predecessor, Donald Trump, heralding a new era.

Trump, who is adept at creating trouble, has "infamously" proposed bleach injections to treat COVID-19, and he is the first president in U.S. history to be impeached twice, the second time impeached on suspicion of inciting rebellion in a riot in Congress.

But the Republican leader isn't the only big man who has put himself in trouble.

In 1998, when President Bill Clinton uttered those immortal words, the whole world was thrilled: "I didn't have sex with that woman."

Of course, this later proved to be a lie — after months of speculation, the politician was forced to admit that he had an "improper physical relationship" with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.

This dirty scandal led to the president being accused of perjury and obstruction of justice.

Clinton was later acquitted and remained in power, but his reputation was hit, a scandal that had a knock-on effect on the subsequent presidential campaign.

The assassinated U.S. president was as famous for his many affairs as his marriage to the charming and long-suffering Jacqueline Kennedy.

His relationship with Marilyn Monroe is best known. In 1962, after Monroe sang "Happy Birthday" to the 37th president at a Democratic fundraiser, he met Monroe at a party.

A few weeks later, Kennedy invited Monroe to go to Palm Springs with him, and of course the trip didn't include his wife.

The relationship is said to have lasted only a few days; the president had a slip-up in bed.

In 2012, former White House intern Mimi Alford published a memoir about her 19-year-old losing the first night to the president in the first lady's bedroom.

She said she kept calling him "Mr. President" and they never kissed each other on the lips.

In June 1972, the Democratic party's headquarters at the Watergate Hotel in Washington was invaded, and the then Republican Nixon administration tried to cover up its involvement.

When the five criminals were arrested, they were found to be carrying cash related to Nixon's re-election campaign committee.

Mark Felt, known as "Deep Throat," was a prominent FBI traitor who helped overthrow Nixon.

Felt had revealed the raid to reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, but he didn't reveal his identity until 2005, sparking the biggest political storm in history.

In his memoirs, he wrote: "People will be debating for a long time whether I did the right thing or not. But now that we know the whole truth, isn't that what the FBI should be doing?"

The president resigned under threats of impeachment, and the scandal was made into the movie "All the President's Men."

In early 1987, former Colorado Senator Gary Hart was the frontrunner in the 1988 Democratic presidential nomination.

However, shortly after his candidacy was announced in April 1987, rumors of his affair began to circulate.

Hart's reaction to the media was astounding, "Follow me." I also don't care if I'm serious. If anyone wants to send someone to follow me, just go for it. ”

The Miami Herald is already tracking down Hart and has found that he has been dating a 29-year-old model named Donna Rice. A week later, Hart withdrew from the race.

A month later, however, a startling image appeared: Rice sat on Hart's knee on the dock, the former senator wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the slogan "Monkey Business."

Hart re-entered the presidential race at the end of the year, but polls turned out poorly, and the scandal and notorious image caused significant damage to his career. He never returned to politics.

In December 2006, former North Carolina Senator and potential presidential candidate John Edwards hired a campaign worker named Riel Hunt.

A year later, it was reported that he had an affair with Hunter and, worse, that he had a child with Hunter.

Edwards first denied the allegations and then went on to run for president. He admitted his extramarital affair in late 2008, but it wasn't until early 2010 that he admitted to being the child's father.

The news of the affair tarnished Edwards' image because it occurred while his wife was undergoing cancer treatment and his wife filed for divorce shortly after he admitted he was the father of the child.

Later that year, she died.
