Former South Carolina congressman Mark Sanford announced today that he's considering a run for president. But he's going to spend the next month deciding whether to formally launch a campaign
The Post and Courier that he would spend the next month deciding whether to formally launch a campaign.
Sanford was pushed out of office by a primary challenger in 2018 after Trump urged voters not to support him, calling him “nothing but trouble” and also alluded to an extramarital affair Sanford had more than a decade before.Still, the South Carolinian maintained he is taking his run seriously, telling The Post and Courier he felt “convicted” to do so because of his alarm over the nation's mounting debt.
"I'm a Republican. I think the Republican Party has lost its way on debt, spending and financial matters," Sanford said. Only one Republican — former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld — has so far announced a presidential challenge to Trump. "Sometimes in life you've got to say what you've got to say, whether there's an audience or not for that message," Sanford told The Post and Courier.
