      Yup. According to Wikipedia:

      According to L. H. Carter, Gingrich’s campaign treasurer, Gingrich said of Jackie: “She’s not young enough or pretty enough to be the wife of the President. And besides, she has cancer.”[269][270] Newt has denied saying it.[266]

      That was his first wife he cheated on. But his second wife got the same treatment:

      Gingrich filed for divorce from Marianne in 1999, a few months after she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.[280]

      He met his current wife because she was a House staffer, and carried on another affair while impeaching Bill Clinton over… well. you know. That marriage has lasted 20+ years.

      Isn’t it always the case that the most vocal people about moral issues are also the ones with the longest “Personal Life” section on Wikipedia?

    I’m with y’all, I’m more disappointed that he’s still stealing oxygen. At least Rush and Kissinger had the decency to finally kick it before fascism became so goddamn close to reality

    I’m pooping right now, and straining. So I misread the headline as

    Gingrich, who has cheated on all 66 of his wives, rails against Harris ad telling woman to ‘lie’ to husband

    Maybe weak Republican men who control their wives lives SHOULD have their wives taking control of something that is their own. Like their bodies. Or their right to vote.

    It’s just crazy to me that he found at least 3 women interested in having sex with him. He has the sexual energy of a rotten pumpkin. Just completely unfuckable (but apparently not?)
