The only bad thing about Newt is he’s older than Trump.

Between the two of them, they’ve married as many women as Brigham Young.

Newt has positives and minuses imho but would be a pretty good choice. He did deliver on several promises from his “contract with America” which fact alone makes him stand far above current congressional “leadership” -— which I believe we need to replace ASAP ———— Palin and Bachmann could be worthy of some consideration too, and -—?

I don’t believe anything the Washington Post has to say...
Besides, Trump could be letting out names just to make the media twits chase their tails...

The VP candidate is often a surprise.
Very few saw Sarah Palin coming in 2008. In fact, when she was announced, I believe she was sitting in the press section! Nobody in the press even recognized her. But those on the Free Republic did seem to get tipped off early. There were reports the night before of a certain airplane with a certain tail number coming out of Alaska! Freepers are the best and the sharpest.
Paul Ryan was a surprise in 2012 as well. Probably the worst VP selection in modern times.
In fact, I can't remember a recent VP pick that did not come as something of a surprise. So all the names being bandied about here will probably not come to be.

Newt’s better than any of the RINO traitors out here and he’s smart and experienced.

What does that have to do with anything.

Between the two of them, theyve married as many women as Brigham Young.But slept with far fewer than either of the Clintons.
Gingrich knows his way around the Hill which is a positive. Calista, OTOH, is a big negative.

I predict it won’t be Gingrich. This is slight of hand to deflect from his real selection and keep it secret for a bit longer.
I don’t know who yet, but I don’t think it’s going to be Newt.

How to kill a campaign. Must be the new Trump crew/old gope losers of elections advising Trump.
Newt can be used to great advantage, even with Calista baggage, after Trump wins.
Please try on Abbott.

MSM will bring up Newt's age.
FWIW (here's my change...), Sessions or Cruz, arguably Pirro or Kasich.

Brigham Young had 55 wives....and many at the same time...ranging in age from 15 to 65.
Maybe not a good comparison. In fact....a ridiculous comparison.
