Newt Gingrich Rips Paul Ryan for Trump Non-Endorsement
Breitbart ^ | 5/5/16 | Breitbart

Posted on 05/06/2016 6:30:54 AM PDT by Zenjitsuman

“[I]n the case of Paul Ryan he made a big mistake today and he needs to understand this,” Gingrich said. “He is the Speaker of the House. He has an obligation to unify the party. He has an obligation to reach out. Obviously he and Donald Trump are going to have disagreements. Some of them will work out and some of them they won’t. That’s fine. Our constitution provides that speakers and presidents can fight, but I think he sends the wrong signal and a signal which I think endangers the House Republicans and endangers the Senate Republicans.”

Newt’s not perfect like so many of us...

But Newt knows how to get legislation passed, he’s smart, loyal and holds the keys are to locked doors. Trump’s got great ideas but those ideas MUST be turned into law. Newt can make that happen.

I might have been snippy on the ‘unfaithful’ thing - sorry if I went too far...(OK, I did) But I don’t see these issues the same light as betraying your country by passing around top secret documents or using the power of the State to trash powerless women. People should be faithful... but it’s not at the top of my concerns for job holders.

That’s the new tack amongst your I’ll here. Claim to vote Trump then trash him. Take it to a Hillary site.

IOW, he is an open borders suck ass.

I was very vocal in my hatred for him getting the speakers job. “meet the new boss, same as the old one, just younger” from what I see.

Ryan is in way over his pay grade as Speaker. Hopefully he will get primaried and we get a better replacement.

“Ryan is an Establishment Globalist Elite America-hating POS.”

I agree. I also notice that the GOP Elites and other candidate Globalist insiders (Cruz, Kasich, Rubio, Walker) expect Trump to reach out to them to unify the party. Those who trashed Donald at every turn and would not honor any pledge to support the eventual nominee.

Did anyone notice that Cruz and Kasich didn’t even have the decency to congratulate Trump when they suspended their campaigns???? Donald on the other hand was very nice to them and showed respect.

Yes about a Trump-Gingrich team. Newt would be a success on the ticket, and he would attract conservative support, not to mention reassurance, that Trump could use in the fall. He has expertise, brains, and brass.

“Duncan Hunter Jr.”

I’ve heard good things about him. Someone of this nature and stage in life, yes. How many years have we fought these fruitless sand wars? How many of those veterans out there are a pool to raise up, having seen the reality of war and the fantasy of DC? We need them. Desperately. Now is the time to help them displace the apparatchiks.

In other words, capitulate to the losers. Somehow I don’t think Trump -could- do that if for some bizarre reason he wanted to.

Not gonna happen, which makes me smile.

Maybe you should read the other Psalms or maybe some Proverbs.

If I have history correct Reagan was not and adulter unlike Newt or Trump. If he was unfaithful to his first wife he never bragged about it.

I will gladly vote against Hillary or Biden or Warren.

In 2008, Arkansas had a Dem governor, 2 Dem US senators, and 3 Dem House reps, and only 1 Repub House rep.

In 2016, Arkansas has a Repub governor ('moderate' Republican, though), 2 Repub US senators, and 4 Repub House reps.

Wrong.

I guess many of the members on FR now are liars so they assume others are as well.

I will be voting for Trump but I wish we had someone with a better moral and ethical background.

I will watch with gladness as anyone destroys the Clinton machine especially the Butcher of Bengazi. If it has to be a twice adulter so be it.
God has used a jackass before to achieve His purposes so Trump won’t be a problem. I hope that purpose is for this countries good and not destruction. Time will tell.

RyanO is doing what he’s told. Which is what Establishment Gopes do. So he’s got no cajones, hes telling everyone he’s still Establishment and should be Cantorized now.

Makes me smile too. Donald knows all the DC Elites are NOT interested in putting America first, but just want to keep their Globalist “play pretty” going whether they have an R or D after their names.

No problem. I understand your passion.

I hate the butcher of Bengazi with all my fiber.
Her Husband is in third place behind Obama.

I wish we could bury some of these old politicians. They have out lived there usefulness. Newt did know how to pass legislation and was a great debater but his couch episode with Pelosi PELOSI!!! showed again his lack of judgment for political gain.

“Maybe you should read the other Psalms or maybe some Proverbs.”

Maybe you should exhibit some sign of grace.

Paul Ryan is a tool for special interest groups, and a man who has collaborated with Barack Obama, never opposing him on ANYTHING.

Kasich could help Trump win Ohio - but after than he’d be useless or worse. Newt’s not going to bring in any states... they’ll have to be Trump’s job. But once Trump’s President Newt’s worth his weight in gold...
