Donald Trump is considering former House Speaker Newt Gingrich as one possible option for his running mate in November, according to a source familiar with the discussions...
Gingrich has praised Trump in the past, telling TIME he has “the potential to be an extraordinarily dynamic president who shakes up a bureaucratic city that badly needs to be shaken up.”

Michelle Bachmann was my first choice in 2012. I ended up voting for Newt Gingrich in the primary; however, my ex governor Romney became the nominee and you know what happened.

I think that he is the best choice and the best “fit” with Trump, and Trump desperately needs someone with Newt’s abilities.

This pleases me, but I don’t think it will trip it up.

Philosophically I have no problem. My only concern is Newt’s age, 72.

Newt was an early supporter of Trump and meets Trump’s requirement that his running mate have extensive political experience.

My only concern is Newt’s age, 72. — Trump is 70.

Excellent choice.
Top notch.

Newt for Chief of Staff; Chris Christie for VP; Carson for Surgeon General; Palin to head the RNC... Offer Cruz ambassador to Haiti.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
He is too old to be useful as a future President. If a woman bats her eyes at him, he unzips like Clinton. He wants to be adored by everyone; he is a needy soul like Clinton and Obama. He gets some things right. But we do not want him in office.
Don’t pick him, Donald!

Cruz to SCOTUS. I would do Christie as AG.

IIRC Christie has already been given post to head up Trump’s national campaign.

Exactly. Trump needs a VP under 60.
