He is a political genius, with experience. Whatever his human flaws, Newt Gingrich is a political genius.

Newt needs to be assigned to the TRUMP “kitchen cabinet”, for counsel and opinion at the ready. There is not much left out there that Newt hasn’t already seen, or certainly already calculated as to the possibilities and outcomes.

I suppose you are right about his intelligence, but I'd rather not see or hear him. And I doubt he'd like to stay in the background.

Ted Cruz is intelligent, too, but Trump should not trust him for anything. Paybacks are a b!tch, and he didn't go quietly into the night. Sean did give him due credit today for taking some hard stands that cost him personally.

But both are now high on my unlikeble meter plus Newt is a carryover from an unpopular administration. I wasn't paying too much attention in those years to the machinations in Washington, just Desert Storm, and see that he was forced to resign as Speaker of the House, then he resigned from the House altogether.
