His campaign to unseat President Trump kicked off in Philadelphia. One person showed up. And Bill Quinn is a registered Democratic who has no intention of voting for Sanford. By contrast, some 30,000 people packed the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas yesterday for a Trump event.
Sanford does have one claim to fame:
The former South Carolina governor resigned in disgrace in 2009 after he disappeared for 10 days without explanation to visit his mistress in Argentina. Sanford called the girlfriend, Maria Belen Chapur, his “soulmate” and the affair ended his marriage.
All in all, the Sanford campaign is off to an amusing start.
Good thing I bought popcorn!
