I hope this is true, because it’s what I predicted! I mean, if Trump is as disgusted with BHO as he says, how could he NOT be for a scrapper like Newt? I’ve thought for awhile now that he likes Newt’s style (it’s a lot like his) and outspokenness.
As he’s said before, part of how DT got to where he is, is by being a good reader of people - he sees what a weak, wishy-washy wimp Romney is and he doesn’t respect that.
This also tells us two things - a) he doesn’t think Romney can beat BHO but that Newt can, and b) he doesn’t plan on jumping in on a third party ticket.
Let’s hope his endorsement, along with the others Newt’s received, carries some weight with a number of people (like maybe young voters - he polled well with them).
If this comes to pass, this sets the table for a third party challenge should Romney be nominated. I think more and more that the outrage, anger, and disgust with the current political class will empower a viable conservative third party that will destory the modern Republican Party.
