Since Newt believes in securing the border, he doesn’t fit the definition of an open border Republican.

Newt also is opposed to a border fence. Which means his talk of securing the borders is just lip service.

Newt does believe in a border fence, he just recognizes that putting a fence along the entire length of the southern border is not feasible, so his plan includes other ways to secure the border where there would not be a fence.
