“Whatever you do, tell the truth.” Grover Cleveland
If tabloids existed back in the 19th century, Grover Cleveland would have made all the covers. Cleveland was known for his honesty and even quickly rose through the ranks of politics because of his impeccable reputation. Yet, he fathered an illegitimate child and secretly dated and then married a college girl who was nearly 30 years his junior. To top it off, he also had a secret surgery aboard a yacht (though Americans wouldn’t learn that until decades later) during his second term.
Speaking of that second term, Grover Cleveland, our president of the week, also became our only president to serve two-non-consecutive terms. Yep, he was both our 22nd and 24th president.
