Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich slammed those Republicans demanding that Donald Trump quit as the GOP presidential nominee, telling Fox News after the second debate in St. Louis, saying, "They have a lot of egg on their face, because the guy who showed up for the debate tonight… clearly has earned being the Republican nominee."
Gingrich said that Trump made his points so well during the debate that "it's kind of crazy for someone to suggest dumping him at this point, and I would hope a lot of those who panicked over the weekend would reconsider their position in light over what we have learned about Hillary through WikiLeaks and the importance of stopping her from truly crippling the country."
After the first presidential debate, the former House speaker was critical of Trump, telling The New York Times that he "has to decide that the presidency is worth drilling into," referring to his lack of preparation for the encounter.
But following the second encounter with Clinton, Gingrich emphasized to Fox News that "Trump came in prepared to go as hard as he needed to. I think he stayed nose to nose with her all evening and I think that she steadily lost . . .
"He was very fast, and I think very good in coming back on a number of occasions and basically totally outmaneuvering her in terms of language, examples, bringing her own record to bear," Gingrich added.

Best part is that if he wins he is going to absolutely have them by the shorthairs.
Pass the legislation that I want....or I am not going to come do your defense during the campaign.
Egg McNuthins.............
Gingrich has nothing but contempt for the wet noodles who run the GOP.
They’re irrelevant.
No money from the RNC...................
[Egg McNuthins.............]
BEST POST of the morning. I’ll take my coffee with that one!
It actually helped Trump with independents and people who feel the GOPe has sold them out.
All these non endorsements and newspapers backing Hillary who the average American voter that there’s a Uniparty controlling the country and we need a revolution at the ballot box.
More like what Slick left on Monica’s dress.....
GOPeers to GO! (away)
Damn these gutless craven cowards. Even the Democrats have no respect for such backstabbing traitors and Paul Ryan, the Bushes, Romney and McConnell.
-—”...because the guy who showed up for the debate tonight… clearly has earned being the Republican nominee.”-—
Slight correction, Newt: Mr. Trump has earned to have his own party. He doesn’t deserve to be associated with a group of anti-American pantywaists who have failed us for 30 years running.
Frankly, the Republicans are reprehensible jerks.
Trump is self-financing plus a lot of donations from the base.
He has something his opponent simply can’t match - sheer enthusiasm for his candidacy.
The support and devotion from his followers is something politicians can only dream of.
He is destined to go places.
I was hoping that Trump would openly campaign against the traitors but I guess that wouldn’t be politically correct.
Trump is flushing out all the scum.
RINO-RATS - welcome to the sewer!
GO TRUMP!
Fair weather supporters. If they run screaming over this little nothing, they don’t deserve our votes and have no business leading and protecting the country. It’s no wonder they’ve been eunuchs the past 8 years.
I’d like to know the number$ on the donations that poured in after the debate last night ....
WHERE WERE these GOP-e’s when the stories of Bill’s rapes and assaults on women? When Hillary threatened and intimidated the victims? On the audio tape where Hillary laughs about getting a rapist of a 14-yo girl?
Did these GOP-e’s rush up to the nearest microphone and denounce the Clintons and demand that they resign or drop out of a race?? WHERE WAS the GOP-e anger over what the Clintons did?? Was there ANY anger from the GOP-e???
Trump for President.
Typical of the GOP/GOP-e, they ran like scalded dogs at the first whiff of trouble.
Seriously considering voting only for Trump and letting the rest go hang.
The RINOs outed themselves to bad it didn’t happen about 6 months ago so they could be voted out.
