If former President Barack Obama can claim with a straight face that his administration was scandal-free, then sure, why not? Terry McAuliffe also led a scandal-free administration while he was governor of Virginia, at least according to Slate’s Mark Joseph Stern.
Quick reminder that Terry McAuliffe somehow governed Virginia for four years without a scandal.
TERRY. MCAULIFFE.

He was under FBI investigation for various things including taking bribes

I think your auto correct is messing up. It changed 'full of' to 'without a'…

Jesus Christ do some research before you post this nonsense.

More accurately, Terry McAuliffe terrifies journalists and political operatives alike into ignoring his many scandals. https://t.co/lIQi6O7JhN

Terry McAuliffe was a joke. He only cared about himself. Didn't do anything for us Virginians.

We’ll go ahead and assume he never wore blackface, but this isn’t what we’d call scandal-free.
