“Newt is a fraud.”
I hate to say this because I used to really admire him but he is a fraud. I don’t know if he always was but it’s been apparent for a long time that he didn’t mean what he said. He only said it to acquire power. It’s a shame he’s a smart guy but he has no deeply held beliefs.
In 1981, Newt dumped his first wife, Jackie Battley, for Marianne, wife number 2, while Jackie was in the hospital undergoing cancer treatment. Marianne and Newt divorced in December, 1999 after Marianne found out about Newt’s long-running affair with Callista Bisek, his one-time congressional aide. Gingrich asked Marianne for the divorce by phoning her on Mother’s Day, 1999.
People that do this are lower than pond scum.
