Newt Gingrich. The guy who, in 1997, used a nonprofit organization for political purposes, against the rules and lied to House investigators about the same? The loser that as Speaker, had to resign from Congress 1999 because he was screwing his staffer 23 years his junior? Co-author of the Contract on America? The guy with a failed presidential bid in 2012, who was hoping to be a Trump VP in 2016? One of the architects of the current political division and destruction of American democratic and societal norms? The politician named after a lizard? Youngsters, see Wikipedia for details.
