There have been some famous political comebacks in our nation’s history. Richard Nixon lost the presidential election in 1960 to John F. Kennedy, only to come back in 1968 and win the White House. Ronald Reagan lost the Republican primary to Gerald Ford in 1976, only to come back in 1980 and defeat Jimmy Carter decisively. And, of course, Donald Trump, after being ousted from office in 2020 and after dealing with non-stop lawsuits and bogus criminal charges, roared back in 2024 to a decisive presidential win.
When considering political comebacks, though, it’s a safe bet that Anthony Weiner wasn’t a name on your Bingo card. But the disgraced, sexting ex-husband of Huma Abedin is nevertheless trying for just such a comeback and is seeking a seat on the New York City Council.
