How soon we forget. The office of the President has had controversy before . . . .
"According to Rep. John D. Dingell (D-Mich.), who held congressional hearings on Stanford's billing practices, the university charged the government for the costs of operating a 72-foot yacht, a $4,000 wedding reception at the president's house, a 19th-century fruitwood commode, enlargement of the president's bed, $7,000 for sheets, two Voltaire chairs at a price of $1,500, and $400 for flowers for a dedication of the school's stables."

And from Wikipedia:
"Kennedy resigned in 1992 following congressional hearings over whether the university improperly billed the government for research expense as part of the Stanford Indirect Costs Controversy,[23][24][25] which included billing for widening his bed and for the purchase of antiques for his home."
