Gingrich: Trump's False (sic) Illegal Voting Claim Was Biggest Mistake As PEOTUS
USA TODAY via Talkingpointsmemo.com ^ | 11-29-16 | USA TODAY via MATT SHUHAM

Newt Gingrich said Tuesday that President-elect Donald Trump’s biggest mistake since the election was his claiming without any evidence that millions of votes were illegally cast on Election Day.

"The president of the United States can't randomly tweet without having somebody check it out," Gingrich, a vice chair on Trump's transition team, told USA Today’s Susan Page during an appearance on the Capital Download video series. “I mean it just— It makes you wonder about whatever else he's doing. It undermines much more than a single tweet."

On Sunday, Trump falsely (sic) claimed that “millions” of people voted illegally, preventing him from winning the popular vote. A widely-shared article on the conspiracy website InfoWars, whose creator, Alex Jones, Trump has praised in the past, cited a non-existent report to make an identical bogus claim.

It’s a sad fact that 50% of American citizens don’t bother to vote. But among illegals, 99% of the ones who can even PASS for 18 flock to the polls for every election. 3 million illegal aliens voting for Hitlery would be a low-ball estimate. It’s probably twice that.

It’s like Newt goes for awhile thinking and saying all of the right things. Then, all of a sudden, bam! He goes all wonky like he needs the media to like him or something.

It’s a strategy. All Trump has to do is make the accusation and the libs will spend their money proving his point (recounts).

Sorry for this biased lib source, can't post USA Today. Gingrich says he see's no evidence of fraud. Tell me again how wonderful this little creep is.

All I have to say to the Newt is, please STFU and go play with Nancy or something...?

Or just go away!

Gingrich jumped the shark when he sat on a couch for a commercial with Pelosi.

It’s of no consequence as the democrats are in full vote fraud Russian hacking mode themselves with all the recounts.

This is nothing.

Newt needs to learn to use a search engine. No proof of illegals in the election system ?

excerpt from article linked


Last month, Judicial Watch noted that “1,046 aliens, or residents who are not U.S. citizens, were on the voter rolls in 8 Virginia counties.” Judicial Watch, which is monitoring Virginia’s elections for fraud, said statewide, that could mean as many as 6,500 ineligible voters are on the rolls.

And if course newt believes just because they registered they would never actually vote wink-wink

Don’t worry—Trump will take care of Rudy, because they are good friends and Rudy has been very loyal.

So far, his picks have been pretty strategic.

Hope Romney gets the custodial staff in the White House.

Thursday, Trump and Pence will be in Indiana at Carrier to announce a deal that will keep most of those 1,400 jobs Carrier wanted to move to Mexico, here in Indiana.

Also, the first rally of his Thank You America Tour is the same day at 7pm in Cincinnati, OH.

He is making America Great Agin and he is not even in office yet.

Gingrich is an attention you know what. Always selling a book or whatever. It cost him a spot in the Trump admin. No doubt.

Say it all the time, the biggest problem with Gingrich is that you never know which Newt you are going to get.

When Nancy has another beau on her couch?

The recount is theater, and nothing else.

The last thing they want is their illegal alien voters to be exposed.

Trump will take care of Rudy

They are both New Yorkers who lived through 9/11. I bet they have had sad conversations together.

Good gosh Newt - if you’re going to say something this stupid, at least wait until AFTER January 20, 2017.

Thanks for helping to perpetuate this liberal myth to cover liberal crimes.
