Sanford's years as governor were overshadowed by his disappearance to go to Argentina to see his lover. Sanford's wife didn't know where he was. Jenny Sanford, moved and relocated with their four sons into the family's home near Charleston and later sued for divorce.
Sanford reemerged launching a 2020 primary CHALLENGE to Trump offering his determination to bring fiscal restraint into the national conversation as a counterpoint to what he described as Trump's incendiary rhetoric. Just ahead of the New Hampshire primary, Sanford dropped out of the contest.

Well, that bid for congress didn’t last very long at all.
He probably didn’t find many wealthy donors who want to invest in his goals.
Sanford, 65, told The AP that he was shuttering his campaign, a decision inspired by his desire to focus on combating the national debt and deficit.
“I have a fair size circle of friends and folks with whom I have some degree of influence and contacts,” Sanford told the AP, also noting that, with his first grandchild on the way, he realized as he mounted this campaign that he wanted to be able to spend more time WITH HIS FAMILY.
What a joke! Surprised his family will have anything to do with him. He won his house seat back, turned rino and got thrown out on his ear in the 2018 primary to a woman named Arrington. She promptly lost-just barely-democrat wave. 2 years later Nancy Mace reclaimed the seat for us where it belongs. It’s a reminder that republicans can be quite stupid.
Can somebody loan him a fork? He needs to check himself, but I think he’s done.
That “more time with the family” gig is getting old. That’s why we can’t find anyone to negotiate with in Iran. All the second in commands decide to retire and spend more time with the family when the number 1 guy gets dusted.
So whatever happened with the woman he destroyed his family for?
Now he’ll go grift with a non profit. 🙄
I wonder what his salary will be from this non-profit.
Mark Sanford Quits Latest Bid for Congress, Says He’ll Hike The Appalachian Trail A Few More Times Instead [wink, wink]
Non profit my ass
**That “more time with the family” gig is getting old.**
Scarboro said the same damn thing when he announced in one June he was quitting congress-effective in September when the kids were back in school.
