California governor Jerry Brown, who dubbed Bill Clinton “the prince of sleaze,” endorsed Hillary Clinton Tuesday ahead of the California primary despite years of denouncing the Clintons’ lack of moral integrity.
During his 1992 presidential run against then-governor of Arkansas Bill Clinton, Brown charged Clinton with “funneling money to his wife’s law firm for state business” – what is now known as the Whitewater scandal. Whitewater sparked a years-long investigation that, when compounded with numerous other scandals, resulted in Clinton’s impeachment.
