Newt Gingrich: Republicans can win in the November elections -- Here’s how
Fox News ^ | March 29, 2018 | Newt Gingrich

Posted on 03/29/2018 2:57:45 PM PDT by Innovative

After the Pennsylvania special election for a U.S. House seat earlier this month that ended with a Democratic victory, I warned that Republicans must start developing a countervailing wave to ensure Democrats do not take control of the House in the November elections.

To do this, Republicans nationwide – even those in “safe” seats and those who are not up for re-election – must not get comfortable playing defense. All of them must be prepared to go on offense. This does not mean simply attacking Democrats. It means setting goals in Congress and aggressively fighting to achieve them.

Newt has a good sense about these things. I hope Republicans are listening.

No, by actually believing in and fighting for conservative ideas.

Here's the problem with what Newt is saying, and I believe he exposes himself as a player in the GOP con game himself just by writing this nonsense:

The Republicans already control Congress and the White House.

Instead of crafting an agenda where the GOP promises to pass the legislation he cites, how about they just PASS THESE LAWS ... like NOW?!

This is why a party in total control of the U.S. government usually faces a disaster in a midterm election. If they haven't gotten anything in their "agenda" done by now, they're either not doing their jobs or they are full of crap.

Oh Lord Newt still believes the fake polls? Did he not learn anything about the FAKE STREAM NEWS and their FAKE POLLS?

President Trump just needs to make sure the Democrats do not steal the 2018 Nov election.

1) Purge Dead Voters List
2) Require a photo ID in the name of security. So we don’t have to worry about “Russians”. Haha!

Why not we do in Airports, Banks, driver’s licsence, etc...

3) Campaign on the economy, security, and American future

Oh, they’re doing their jobs alright but THEY think doing their jobs is what is politically safe for their own political future. They obviously don’t care about America’s future.

WE should THROW THE BUMS OUT!!!

Donald Trump set a nationalist economic agenda that was dead on perfect, it's just the GOP can't follow it. It goes against their handlers: the global Free Trade cabal.

F the GOP!

If the GOP wants to win in the house, members running for Congress in '18 have to marry the Trump MAGA agenda and distance themselves form Mitch the Bitch and Stall Ryano.

THEY ALL NEED TO PROMISE TO ELECT A NEW SPEAKER!

If they don’t want to win, they won’t win. Nothing can overcome that.

Just tell the TRUTH:

Make a 10-point list of what Democrats will do to us. ALL REPUBLICANS should speak of nothing else.

Nationalize the 2018 elections!

Nancy Pelosi will:

1) Open our borders
2) Take our guns
3) Raise taxes
4) Provide welfare for illegal immigrants
5) Persecute Christian/Jewish groups
6) Raise gas tax
7) Destroy Israel
8)
9)
10)

Remember that the Dems had majority in the House until Gingrich united the Republicans.
