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?!!

I think many like Gingrich are too oriented to how the msm sees things and crafts narratives than how they should be working to deconstruct those narratives. Those average folks out in Trump’s America aren’t with that DNC shill Khan who attacked Trump falsely from the stage supporting Hillary the women who left Americans to die in Benghazi and who wants to coddle the same type of islamic extremists that killed his brave son. It actually looks like this father himself is sympathetic to the islamic extremists. Either way the biggest defeat I see is not Trump though I would’ve responded differently its the Republicans instinctive desire to submit to whatever contrived MSM narrative that is presented even when it comes straight from the the campaign of Hillary Clinton.

Trump is not why we lose. Its the way Republicans fall in line with left wing narratives shooting their own. The best advice is if you aren’t rhetorically shooting at Hillary Clinton put your damn rhetorical gun down. You NEVER see Democrat leadership behaving as spineless as we’ve seen Ryan and McConnell in the face of Republican narratives even when they are unquestionable and factual. Harry Reid and Pelosi gets out there every day works to turn any GOP attack back on us. Our team fucking shoots itself in the foot and expects to get rewarded for it.

I see the Pee Pants Pink Panties Punks, a group I like to call the P.P.P.P.P., are Johnny on the spot for this thread.

I think we should give them all a fresh pair of Depends and a second set of pink panties that they can wear on their heads.

Oh B. S.

Trump is fine.

It’s the knee knocking class, Newt, Rriebus, and Ryan that need to consoling.

Boy Gingrich is really bitter about not getting the VP spot.

If he keeps this up he is going to lose his chance at the Chief of Staff spot.

My message to DJT:

If you, Mr. Trump, allow yourself to continue to be PULLED
off message by your opponents and tweet yourself into oblivion
you will do, in a BIGGER way, exactly what you accused Mitt Romney of doing.. "choking bigtime."

There is NO way Hillary Clinton can win this election unless,
you Mr. Trump, minimize yourself by focusing on the UNIMPORTANT.
Instead of delivering KNOCKOUT BLOWS you're doing too much trash talking.
