Newt Gingrich told Breitbart News that the country is in rebellion against the coastal power centers and that Donald Trump might be the candidate who can "kick down the doors" of the establishment.
Former House speaker Gingrich weighed in on Trump's rise.
"I think he represents a different era" in the same conservative movement, Gingrich said. "The system has become so incompetent and outrageously buracratic. The centers of power are so, so in New York, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles, that the whole rest of the country is in rebellion. And people are looking for somebody who can kick down the doors."
"It"s a very deep, very real movement," he said.
Gingrich spent Friday on Capitol Hill promoting an initiative to make changes to Obamacare so that states can make more decisions about how to implement their own health care and insurance programs. Gingrich is working with his old colleague across the aisle Tom Daschle to get support for his plan. The Obama administration is coming out with new regulations on Section 1332, the part of the law that applies to "state innovation waivers." Gingrich is fighting to protect those waivers from becoming over-regulated.
"These are very specific reforms, so we can actually move forward, instead of waiting until 2017 to fix some of these problems," Gingrich said.
"The core idea is to return authority to the states with waivers, to give states the power to try to adapt the system to their own needs," he said. "We also have a real desire from a number of governors to create a bigger insurance market. For many small states, having one publicly controlled insurance market is not effective because there are not enough people to justify it." Citizens can get better deals on health care in regional and multi-state markets.

ping.
Trumpism is the Populism you get when Leadership fails its constituents.
and that is exactly what we need , a door kicker....
100%
Not surprised. Americans have had it.
It’s too late for the elites to take a lesson from the American Revolution. They out to take a look at the French Revolution to see what can happen if they continue to be dense.
Yep...Preaching rebellion...Newt will soon be on “No Fly” list...
Think about all those foreign interests and enemy states that pumped so much money into America’s destruction.
A brokered convention is the GOPe undermining America at its core.
That could be the greatest thing I’ve every written. ...but I doubt it.
Bump.
“Gingrich is working with his old colleague across the aisle Tom Daschle...”
I discount everything that follows with Newt on this issue...
Yes, and Trump will do it. The entire communists Democratic party and most of the Republican party are corrupt as hell. Time to clean house.
Trump for President.
That’s what I’ve said too! Trump is the battering ram needed to kick down the door, bringing Cruz along with him. Get the clean-up well underway and Cruz can take the reins in four years, giving The Donald a few years of well-deserved retirement (although I can’t imagine him not working lol).
Excellent!
Newtie is now a paid Lobyist?
We need an ass kicker - and I think we have that in Trump.
Rebellion is on!
Newt is smart.
