Report: Gingrich Lobbying To Be Trump’s Running Mate
hotair.com ^ | May 23, 2016

Posted on 05/23/2016 2:18:41 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Actual quote from Ed Rollins about the fact that a Trump/Gingrich ticket would have six wives between them: “They certainly understand women.”

...

Gingrich has a reputation for insinuating himself into campaigns by firing off dozens of e-mails brimming with ideas that range from brilliant to insane. While it’s a quality that has irritated previous presidential candidates such as John McCain and Mitt Romney, sources say that Trump has come to value the former speaker’s opinions.

“They talk every day,” says a source familiar with the relationship, who claims that Gingrich e-mails Trump, campaign chairman Paul Manafort, and campaign manager Corey Lewandowski “countless times a day.” On Friday, the source says Gingrich sent five messages after lunch, musing on everything from Fox host Megyn Kelly’s interview with Trump to Trump’s recently announced list of potential Supreme Court nominees to ideas for targeting Bernie Sanders’s voters…

Newt being sworn in as VP would be a gift to our nation if Trump decides to choose him. Newt will help Trump get the job done. Trump hires winners and people capable of moving mountains if needed. That is why Newt would be such a great VP for such a time as this in our nations history.

What we can agree on is to NEVER NEVER NEVER see Hillary and Bill move into the Peoples House again.

You are correct! It should definitely be a woman.

Marsha Blackburn, first choice. Kristi Noem, second choice.

The pic isn’t about their daughter. It’s about the devastation the Clintons have done to our country. Trump picked the perfect word to describe her. CORRUPT.

Newt will NOT help the ticket. I love Newt, but not for VP. He would hurt the ticket.

1. Too old
2. Too much baggage
3. Sat on a couch with Nancy Pelosi
4. Had to resign in disgrace as speaker
5. Trump won’t allow someone else to be in charge
6. Asked his wife to sign divorce papers on her death bed. (I know it’s not true, but when did that stop liberals or the media)
7. You don’t just get Newt, you get Callista also. She creeps me out!
8. You fill in the rest

Trump should pick someone young and conservative as VP.

If the pick could also help in a swing state mores the better.

Trump will win because of Trump. Trump is popular and won the most votes in a Republican primary, ever, because people are voting for Trump. Period.

Romney could not deliver Michigan.

Ryan could not deliver Wisconsin.

Edwards did not deliver N Carolina.

Gore did not deliver Tennessee.

Fact is, people do not make the decision to vote based on the bottom of the ticket. Presidential candidates should just pick whoever they get along with and think can do the job well.

I think he could be an adviser as well, but it’s that stupid Josh (not very) Earnest who is in front of the cameras all the time.

I think Newt would be great at giving them answers they never expected, and they have to report it.

Nancy Reagan believed, and so do I, that GHWB tried to become President by murdering Ronald Reagan.

We have been ruled uninterruptedly by murderers since 1989.

How many times in 100 years has the veep been someone good to take over? Other than Truman? I think most people are looking for the veep being someone that could take over anytime. The argument is always about the person being ready i.e. Quayle, Palin, Ryan just to name a few. I think Cheney and Biden did what they where supposed to do and add a little reassurance to the tickets. I think Trump needs this, plus someone with pull in DC as far as little helpful tricks of the trade. A governor, young congressman or affirmative action pick won’t do it. I’m for Newt, Sessions or Demint. Maybe others that fit the bill but I’m not concentrating super hard on it.

I am and it should NOT be a career politician. Career politicians are presumed to be corrupt.

Trump should pick someone who can assume the office “in a heartbeat.”

I agree. Trump will not have many friends in D.C. when he is sworn in, and it is certain that he will be a controversial president. The odds that he will be impeached are much higher than usual.

You are probably correct.

Trump is like some kind of superhero.

I have never seen his like before!

It is obvious, OBVOUS that the Dems and the National LIberal media is going full court press against having Newt being names as VP in July. Why are they so scared of a Trump/Gingrich ticket? It is obvious. Because while they will continue to attempt to use their useless fake talking points against them, they know deep down they will be TOAST. Why else would the online trolls be working overtime to attempt to stop Newt from being VP? Something is very off with all the Newt haters all of a sudden.

Why? They have their trolls all over social media decrying the reasons why Newt shouldn’t be VP. It’s one thing if they are neutral, or not engaged. Instead it is the opposite. The liberals are screeching that there is no way Newt can be VP, because this, because that, and of course because of this. Also, Romney is LIVID that Newt might get on the ticket. Even though Newt was a true Patriot after Romney won the primary and supported Romney day in and day out, Romney is a hater and cannot stand the fact that Newt might be on the ticket. But We the People and polls say otherwise.

Newt has been a Trump VP front runner for many for the past several months. Gingrich is the favorite on Predictwise at 31%. The comes Joni Ernst at 11%. Kasich, Christie, and Condi Rice(!) are all at 4%.

A great majority have been favoring Newt as VP for months now. The Republican Convention is in July. When can Trump officially announce who his running mate is? The LEFT is already coming unglued with the thought of Newt becoming VP.
