I agree with Gingrich that this is a rough patch just as far as with regard to the media coverage. It's the worst I've seen it, and it was bad after the Heidi Cruz retweet and the Judge Curiel hoopla. I think it is crucial that Trump stay 100% focused on attacking Obama and Hillary because Hillary is Obama's third term and stay on policy as well. Ignore the haters and don't let them bait you. People like Buffett, Cuban, Bloomberg, and an assortment of other DNC players will try to get him off message. Ignore them because if you beat Hillary, you've beaten them too.

However, Gingrich proceeds to completely go off the rails and loses me. He goes after Trump for not endorsing John McCain and Paul Ryan.

"And let me just say flatly I am totally for John McCain, who is a great war hero and a terrific human being, who has worked very hard for veterans, and I’m totally for Paul Ryan, who is the heart of the House Republican Party and probably the most problem-solving leader we’ve had in the Congress on the Republican side, I think, in the last 20 years," Gingrich said. "So I think somewhat what Trump has done is just very self-destructive."

Paul Ryan is the most "problem-solving leader" for Republicans in the last 20 years? Really? Really?!!

Trump needs to have someone in his ear who he trusts. Trump needs to know this is not solely about him anymore. We put our trust into him and he has to do certain things, even if he doesn’t want to.

I saw Gingrich slobbering all over Ryan and McCain. I’m done with Gingrich.

Trump can be self destructive. He did not get to where he is at in life by sabotaging himself, so I am disappointed in his recent performance.

I believe the Washington elites and 80% of the media have manufactured this ‘rough patch’....Trump did not say anything disparaging about Kahn and his non-endorsement for Paul Ryan is payback for that little boy’s comments throughout the primaries.

Looks like Newt switched sides this week.

Paul Ryan is the most "problem-solving leader" for Republicans in the last 20 years?

The one who has failed to recognize that compromising with bad policy is like adding a little sewage to your drinking water?

Trump is proving his critics correct. Unfortunately it’s too late to undo the damage.

John InSaine is not a terrific human being and his followers would know he is lying. Gingrich should know if anyone what stepping on your tongue is about. Trump calls it like he sees it and tough if you don’t like it.

Gingrich always has to kiss up to the establishmedia every now and then to keep his credibility. This is why he shouldn’t have been picked as VP.

Yes. The Leftists and GOPe are going to be constantly trying to pull him ‘off message’ and he needs to stay focused on what he is running against. Hitlery and Obama’s history and behavior. Trump should have a group of people (Newt, Rudy, etc) to go after the sideliners. Stay focused on the main target. Hitlery and her immediate enablers.

Trump was asked to name his sacrifices. He was attacked by this man. The man didn’t condemn radical Islam.

I disagree with Newt about McCain and Ryan. But I agree that Trump needs to ignore enemies whose names aren’t Obama and Hillary.

As Giuliani said, that’s why you have people like him and Newt. Let them go after the lesser enemies. Any attack by any lesser foe, he should find a way to tie that back to Hillary and Obama and focus the attack there.

Keep in mind, Gingrich has ALWAYS been a pro amnesty,open border best friend of Grover Norquist.

THIS IS ALL ABOUT immigration.....Trump is right and the big $$$ in immigration wants him gone!

BTW

Keep in mind, that making the E5 BIG $$$ immigrant visas permanent is RYAN’s objective in the house. This is ALL about $$$$! Ryan is OWNED by an immigration lawyer, Cesar Conda, who along with Grover Norquist/Rove got E5’s put into Bush’s immigration policies.

Some (Grassley) are trying to reform the E5 because it is a FRAUD magnet. Others like Ryan, Flake, McCain want it left as is....CORRUPT.

“It remains to be seen how this will affect EB-5. There is a very good chance that it will mean a continuation of the program without reform. How long it will take to pass specific EB-5 legislation aside from the broader matter of sweeping reform is anybody’s guess”

Trump should continue to trust his instincts.

Gingrich knows that this is a media-contrived tempest....and should know better than to make these comments.

Gingrich, this is why you weren’t chosen to be Trump’s running mate. You’re not part of the movement. You pretend you are, but you’re trying to co-opt it. Trump understood that.
