Mark Sanford, the former South Carolina congressman ousted from office after President Donald Trump urged voters to reject him, is considering a run for president.

He would run as a Republican.

    Who do these losers think they are? They don’t have a clue on how to lead a country.

    Didn't he have a bimbo eruption with a Latina?
Won't that make him as attractive to the open borders crowd as another run by Jeb! ?

    I always admired Sanford’s first wife, Jenny. She was a rare political wife. When Mark S was caught with his pants down, she didn’t do the Hillaryesque stand-by-your-man schtick. She threw the bum to the curb.

    I literally saw him onboard a plane I was on, going to - Buenos Aires
Was a year or two after his “Appalachian Trail” scandal broke and he had returned to anonymity.
For what its worth, he was traveling economy.

    Delightful. Maybe hell spend all his time campaigning with a mistress in South America. 
 This guy wouldnt win a presidential election even if the only eligible voters were his own family members.

    It’s amazing how many professional politicians have no concept or understanding of politics whatsoever.

    He couldn’t even win re-election in South Carolina.
