Newt Gingrich: Dems want Trump to be 'nice' while they try to take him down
Fox News ^ | February 7, 2020 | David Montanaro

The Democrats will continue a steady stream of investigations into President Trump, said former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Friday, advising the president to focus on his accomplishments while the far-left continues to "trap" Nancy Pelosi into pursuing unpopular policies.

"They want to shoot at Trump as often as they can until they finally get him and they'd like him to be nice while they're doing it," Gingrich argued on "America's Newsroom." Well, they've got the wrong guy because Trump is gonna counter-punch every time and as president, he's got a bigger punch than they do."

Gingrich said in the wake of Trump's acquittal in the Senate impeachment trial, Democrats are already talking about sending a subpoena to former national security adviser John Bolton to testify about the president's request to Ukraine to investigate the Biden family.

The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals is expected to issue a ruling in the near future regarding whether the House Judiciary Committee can compel the testimony of former White House Counsel Don McGahn. In a court filing for that case, House Democrats revealed that McGahn's testimony related to information in the special counsel's Russia report could even be used for new articles of impeachment.

Of course.

It’s who they are.

It’s what they do.

You would have thought Newt would have realized this after he buddied up with Pelosi in the late 90’s

And what Mitt Romney does not understand is the Phlegmocrats want to take him down too, regardless of how respectful they seem to be of him right now. If they can find some way to accuse him of some kind of ism, they will most certainly do so to take him down.

Right on, especially Pelosi after her fiasco at the SOTU and the backlash but she’s a slow learner.

“Newt Gingrich: Dems want Trump to be ‘nice’ while they try to take him down”

yeah, the Dems greatly lament the demise of the good ol’days when the old-style, punching-bag Pubs like the Bushes, McCain, Romney, et. al. pretty much just apologized for being Pubs, a la, “Well, we Republicans aren’t really AS evil as you claim we are. really.”

So, when Trump turns their tactics of accusations and epithets around against themselves,they don’t really know how to react ...

Can’t wait for the tee shirts at the DNC convention that say “eight years of Obama and all we got was this Bernie T-shirt”.

IMHO, it is all about keeping President Trump on defense. First the Mueller hoax investigation, followed shortly thereafter by the impeachment hoax.

President Trump's speech yesterday shows me that he is ready to go on offense.

“It’s who they are.
It’s what they do.”

It’s the ONLY thing they do.
They can do nothing else.
