Newt Gingrich: Trump Could Be ‘The Most Effective Anti-Left Leader in Our Lifetime’ (VIDEO)
Gateway Pundit ^ | 05/03/2016 | Jim Hoft

Newt Gingrich went on with Sean Hannity tonight after the Donald Trump’s Indiana blowout and after Ted Cruz suspended his campaign.

Newt argued that Donald Trump could be the “the most effective anti-left leader in our lifetime.”

Newt added that anyone who does not support Trump is supporting Hillary.

First of all, Donald Trump may turn out to be the most effective anti-left leader in our lifetime. He is against political correctness. He is against bureaucracy. He places American nationalism first which I think we desperately need. I’m tired of being told we have to phony agreements and phony efforts and I watch John Kerry rush from five-star hotel to five-star hotel trying to get a phony peace agreement that is an absurdity… I think Trump could be a return to a more of an Eisenhower kind of realism that none-the-less is conservatism. And he may do more to dismantle the left than anybody in our lifetime… The other side is, if you’re not for Donald Trump, you’re effectively for Hillary Clinton.

You mean “a public.” Suppose Trump were to win narrowly and the Republicans lost the Senate. Take it from there.

Purists come in two varieties: The anabaptists and the Calvinists. Evangelicalism has two sides: the antinomians and the Bible readers, Trump captured the antinomians; Cruz captured the latter. The problem with the former is that two months after the revival,most are back at the roadhouse, The some are in the Church along with the latter. Even if the preacher is one of them, they willed unpicking a fight, because for them everything reduces to the “Spirit”. If they equate that to speaking in tongues, they need an interpreter. Now the Trumpists think they have found one in him.

I didn’t say that! :)

Just those were different times. Republicans couldn’t look at someone sideways lest they would have to resign in disgrace. Now they get almost the same (lack of) morality privileges as the RATS..

Newt’s good, but not for VP. (1) Too old. (2) Too much baggage surrounding prior marriage and breakup. The campaign would be a hot mess.

A high-level cabinet position, or Chief Of Staff would work.

I agree. Newt wouldn’t bring any constituency to the ticket that Trump doesn’t already have, and as you say, the socon drag might actually hurt. However, as chief of staff, Newt would fill gaps Trump has in the realm of Congress and its workings.

Not different times: different people making up the public. In those days there were only two sexes.

We all are all older, and one thing is sure, most of us will be dead before most of them are.
