Ronald Reagan was divorced. You can’t disqualify someone because they’ve had problems in their personal lives. I’m not holding Newt up to be some savior, but he’s a competent leader, is conservative, and has the potential - I think - to be a good president.
It’s a matter of the circumstances of the divorce.
Same with most things in life.
Look into the facts surrounding Reagan’s divorce vs Newt’s (and when they occurred in their life) and get back to me.
