Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich slammed those Republicans demanding that Donald Trump quit as the GOP presidential nominee, telling Fox News after the second debate in St. Louis, saying, "They have a lot of egg on their face, because the guy who showed up for the debate tonight… clearly has earned being the Republican nominee."
Gingrich said that Trump made his points so well during the debate that "it's kind of crazy for someone to suggest dumping him at this point, and I would hope a lot of those who panicked over the weekend would reconsider their position in light over what we have learned about Hillary through WikiLeaks and the importance of stopping her from truly crippling the country."
After the first presidential debate, the former House speaker was critical of Trump, telling The New York Times that he "has to decide that the presidency is worth drilling into," referring to his lack of preparation for the encounter.
But following the second encounter with Clinton, Gingrich emphasized to Fox News that "Trump came in prepared to go as hard as he needed to. I think he stayed nose to nose with her all evening and I think that she steadily lost . . .
"He was very fast, and I think very good in coming back on a number of occasions and basically totally outmaneuvering her in terms of language, examples, bringing her own record to bear," Gingrich added.
Gingrich also stressed that the prospects for Trump in the third and last debate are good.
"I don't see how anybody could look at tonight's debate and say it did not have a very significant amount of substance and policy differentiation that was far more than I think you got in the first debate....

Tell ‘em, Newt! “Panicked” is absolutely the word, and Newt knows this political CMA mindset from a lifetime of close observation. Gotta love Newt. I hope he’s the chief of staff next year.
Newt really laid it out in his video! You should watch it!
More than egg, trump now knows who he needs to go after and defeat
I have to admit, Newt is smarter than the average RINO.
They are Effin A-holes....
These fair weather Egop sailors need to eventually be purged from the party BY THE ELECTORATE. But for now, get to the back row of the room and simply SHUT UP!
Bookmark this list as the GOPe DISPICABLES
Egg?? Flies. They have flies on their faces, just like Hillary.

The roaches run when the light is turned on. The RINOs are scared of their shadows. Remember when Romney actually grew a pair in the second debate with Obama and the GOP leadership got their knickers in a wad that he might be frightening the “moderates”. For once a GOP candidate was not afraid to say what needs to be said. Imagine Rubio or Jeb Bush daring to confront Hillary like this? Far too long the GOP has just allowed the Democrats and media to run over them. About time this changes.
Thanks for the list - Excellent!
Hardy, Heck and Heller in Nevada are now dead men walking. We have a None of the Above option. I hope they feel the pain, they have one chance at contrition to the will of the people, otherwise they lose.
Don’t want the Democrats in Congress, but quisling Republicans are no better...and they need a hard lesson taught to them in the most unforgiving terms.
We are waiting to hear their Mea Culpas...if we don’t, they are three losers on Nov. 8.
NeverTrumps = NeverTrust them again (#NeverTrust?)
I’m certain that President Trump will.
I think we deplorables can help make sure he doesn't need to worry about at least some of them.

Tell them all: “You’re fired!”
Burn em all. Trump can (based on precedent now) use XOs to bypass a Dem congress for 2 years until we get real Americans on ballots to replace them.
Could it be that there is a God who blesses America?
