I posted this article a week or so ago, and doing it again.

I am unabashedly in favor of Newt Gingrich for Trump's VP. I can't think of anyone else better.

What do you all think?

What do you all think? Newt would be a great partner for Trump. He can speak off the cuff easily. He’s been on our TV screens for decades. He knows how to fight the Clintons. He an historian.

I think there is genuine affection between these two men, and you can see it in Newt’s eyes that he really admires Trump.

Gingrich seems to be a favorite of a lot of people who didn’t want Trump to be the nominee in the first place.

I’m all for it. I’ve always liked Newt. The VP pick doesn’t make or break Trump unless he picks somebody like Elizabeth Warren IMO.

It would change the complexion of the relationship Trump has with conservatives. Newt really is the bastion for conservative thought IMO. He was there with Reagan. He could fashion a first 100 Days for America that would have them winning all 50 states!!!!!!

While I like Gingrich I think that at 72 he is too old for the position of Vice-President. At the end of Trump’s two terms he would be 80 years old. We need someone younger who could be set up as Trump’s successor. Gingrich can play other important roles in a Trump administration.

Trump/Rand Paul
Trump/Santorum
Trump/Huckabee

If I had to make a bet these are the people who truly have a chance. Gingrich would certainly be fine with me though

If you want a really weird but powerful combination,

Trump / Sanders

It would break just about every rule in politics
But just might work
It would win in a landslide

Newt is great, despite have been whipped around by the libs over the years. As for age, I don’t see it as a problem, long as he keeps swimming in the congressional pool and drinks lots of beer. Would be an interesting combo for sure. Bro’ Jesse Jackson would go into a tizzuh’........yo!

Newt could help set up shop, only do one term.
