Newt Gingrich went on with Sean Hannity tonight after the Donald Trump’s Indiana blowout and after Ted Cruz suspended his campaign.

Newt argued that Donald Trump could be the “the most effective anti-left leader in our lifetime.”

Newt added that anyone who does not support Trump is supporting Hillary.

First of all, Donald Trump may turn out to be the most effective anti-left leader in our lifetime. He is against political correctness. He is against bureaucracy. He places American nationalism first which I think we desperately need. I’m tired of being told we have to phony agreements and phony efforts and I watch John Kerry rush from five-star hotel to five-star hotel trying to get a phony peace agreement that is an absurdity… I think Trump could be a return to a more of an Eisenhower kind of realism that none-the-less is conservatism. And he may do more to dismantle the left than anybody in our lifetime… The other side is, if you’re not for Donald Trump, you’re effectively for Hillary Clinton.

Agreed.

Ping! ;)

[Hugin]

Next get it!

[Hugin]

I mean gets it. Preview is there for a reason.

[Theodore R.]

Anyone who could vote for McPain or Romney should be able to vote for Trump too. What’s the hold-back?

[sparklite2]

Newt for VP!

[Sound of socons gut-checking.]

[Hugin]

And Newt, not Next. Jeez two typos in three words. That’s a record for me.

[RobbyS]

Why Newt was pushed out of the speakership.

[RobbyS]

Trump is Trump.

[ifinnegan]

Is Newt the Veep choice?

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

Anyone who could vote for McPain or Romney should be able to vote for Trump too.

YesYesYesYesYES!!!

All of this piteous "... but... but... he's no conservative!" ululating, and yet they happily soldiered behind the Grandfather of ObamaCare AND the Fanatical, Red-Eyed Amnesty King!

[RobertClark]

Newt for VP!

I couldn't be happier if this actually happened.

[silverleaf]

Newt Gingrich has been a voice of reason
Hope there will be a role for him
WH Chief of Staff?

[Mariner]

"What’s the hold-back?"

They're butt-hurt.

And they're evangelicals who believe Trump is not a Godly man.

They were never going to vote in the general election for anyone but Cruz.

It's predictable they will stay home, and has been since 1984.

I haven't always been the biggest Newt supporter, but he's right on this count. The left didn't take control of huge chunks of our society and government overnight. They understand, and have exploited the notion of incrementalism over the past 100+ years to slowly move things in their direction. You can't spend years wandering into the forest and expect to find your way out in one day. Cruz may have (arguably) been the storybook conservative of many people's dreams but even if elected, he was not going to instantly restore us to our founding principles in his first 100 days in office, his first four years in office or his first eight years in office.

Long before the left took control of the media and fedgov, they took control of the language, and have consequently owned the battlefield on which the philosophical battles of the culture war have been fought. If Trump does nothing more with his presidency than shatter the stranglehold of political correctness he will have made a major contribution towards any hope of ever restoring this nation to what our founders intended it to be.

[Utmost Certainty]

Self-described evangelicals often went overwhelmingly for Trump. That’s probably not a fair stereotype.

[Girlene]

Newt for VP!

Beat me to it!

[Salvation]

Good interview.

“I mean gets it. Preview is there for a reason.”
