It became OBVIOUS to me last night that Newt Gingrich is an official unofficial spokesman for President-elect Donald Trump right now, and that the FNC "Hannity" show is the primary vehicle right now for publicly communicating to we-the-people AND Congress.

It's clear that Trump or Newt told Hannity to back off on Hannity's announced plans to attack NeverTrumpers in Congress by name, and it's also clear that Newt told Hannity Trump's plans to appoint several high-level supporters to administrative positions, and then allowed Hannity to "ask" about those people and positions, with Newt giving "answers".

The money shot was not in the posted article but IS in the interview video linked here as well, namely, when Hannity asked about GOP Congresspersons that can't be brought around, Newt replied: "The handful of bitter-enders will ALL face a primary fight in 2018."

I would therefore suggest that "Hannity" be closely watched by anyone here who REALLY wants to know what President Trump is going to do, how he's going to do it, and the level of toughness Trump will bring to his Presidency.

You are correct. I listen very closely when Newt is on and what he says. By the way Newt said he was not interested in a Secretary position but wanted to be on the team overlooking the big changes Trump wants to make.

Accurate description.
One of the Freepers who lead the exodus of NeverTrumpers from FreeRepublic to that alternative site where they slandered Jim and the rest of us for supporting President-elect Trump has had his account reinstated after his well deserved ZOT.

Ugh—Newt is just too much of a Beltway hack. His top priority a big infrastructure SPENDING bill to get Democrat buy-in on? And that’s what will get the economy going? Did we really just elect another garden-variety Keynesian?

Lots of "principled" 'NeverTrump' "conservatives" vainly seek relevance.

5 Things NeverTrump Conservatives Can Do in the Aftermath of the Election

The above is just an example of a no-name small fish NeverTrumper at PJ Media.

These people are like our European 'allies', they refused to do trench work, they stood on the shoulders of those fighting in the foxhole, and now they swoop in to get their share of the war spoils. If even a two bit nobody is plotting like this, you'd better believe the other NeverTrumpers are doing the same, or worse.

Never trust NeverTrumpers. They haven't earned any creds.

“[A] Donald Trump [administration is] going to be among the most extraordinary, creative, inventive, exciting periods in all of American political history,” Gingrich told Fox News’ Sean Hannity on “Hannity”. “Let [the ‘Never Trump’ movement] drift off into the ashbin of history while we go ahead and work with Donald Trump and with the House and Senate Republicans to create a dramatically new future.”

I was a NeverTrump/NeverHillary. I did vote but
I did not vote for either. He won regardless, so the tag is now meaningless to me. I’ll gladly take whatever beatings/zottings you may wish to dish out. I have no expectations of the Trump Administration but I’ll pray for him and hopefully I’ll be joyfully surprised.

Still NeverBinary.

Saw it - noticed that both Newt and Rudy kept their cards close to their vests about possible cabinet members. Love the way they are doing the job. Here’s hoping Rudy is the next Attorney General....

...

I hope this is the case and that Trump will be selective with the old media. Most of them are biased, corrupt and need to be ignored while they dry up and die.

I agree with Newt. In fact, they are cuck boys for the Democrats, particularly Bill Clinton to have their way with their wives because they are not man enough for them.
