Nwt would be a disaster. I really like him, but as VP he brings too much baggage to the table. Hopefully, this is Newt getting on the Trump bandwagon of spinning the media.

Newt for chief of staff. On his own, as VP candidate, he would bring few new votes while exposing the ticket to socon hatred of Newt for his personal life.

I think he would be an asset as part of the WH team but not as VP.

The operative word: baggage.

[Segovia]

why do you suppose Republicans always have “baggage”? Did the Democraps check their bags?

[grania]

Jeff Sessions was interviewed on ABC's Sunday AM talk show. He said that he would accept if asked but didn't expect it. As usual, Sessions is the voice of reason and very objectively supported and advocated for Trump.

Perhaps this will give all the 'pubs who aspire to move on up in a Trump administration to stop hedging their bets. Trump will have a qualified VP even if the younger ones continue to be jerks. With both of them on board, Gingrich and Sessions, it further reduces the relevance of Ryan and Romney.

Another even bigger disaster would be Sarah Palin, whom Ben Carson has told the Washington Post is on Trump’s short list!!! I pray Trump doesn’t repeat McCain’s mistake!!

[VerySadAmerican]

Why does he always have to mention his wife Calista?

[alloysteel]

Baggage, what does that even mean? Until Herself came along, it was thought that having huge personal problems could be somehow a hindrance to being electable, yet Herself managed to successfully outwit all but a couple guys on her personal ride to the horizon. That Herself has never actually gotten to the horizon has more to do with puppet masters pulling strings, than because of any character flaws, which are painfully obvious to almost everybody except a rather small coterie in the immediate circle of Herself.

Newt Gingrich may have some baggage, but he is a far more likable person than Herself.

[A CA Guy]

He is a political version of Trump and a visionary.

Gingrich is not a priest, we are not electing a priest.
I would also like to add that God has used many flawed people to do His great things.

SO WHAT IF NEWT GINGRICH IS NOT PERFECT, FORGET THE PC!
We need NEWT.
I would have gladly voted him for President in 2012.

Media created baggage...........There is nothing wrong with Newt and in fact, I think he's the most intelligent individual in the Republican party.

He would be a great asset to Trump as a VP and help temper Trump's lack of political savvy.......

To express it in a metaphor, kinda like an Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Sky Walker type of relationship..........

Go Trump/Newt
