That would be a bold play. Probably better placed as a top adviser or chief of staff as others have also stated.

I would consider being very depressed over that choice

NO!

Gingrich = Trump loses the general election.

Gingrich needs to fade away, permanently.

Time for new blood, not an establishment RINO.

Gingrich would consider it obviously but he has also made clear he doesn’t necessarily want it at this point in his life.

Alderman is really pushing Trump to pick this guy...the Neo-cons; globalists; CFR’s; TTP; TPA; and all the rest...

Don’t do it Mr. Trump, we know you know who and what baggage this guy has...one thing to be an ‘advisor’ another to shove this guy down our throats like people are trying to do...

General Michael Flynn is now my preferred VP, followed by Congressman Duncan D. Hunter of California (son of Duncan).

I think Gingrich has already been offered a job as chief of staff or a cabinet position in a Trump administration. I think Trump has Newt out there to distract the media while the real VP candidate is lying low until next week when the formal announcement is supposed to be made. I think it’s a good bet that Trump’s VP choice is none of the announced names put out there by his campaign.

Nothing new with this story. It has been out there for awhile.

I know Gingrich has had some detractors here, but his lifetime achievements are nothing short of amazing.

He BALANCED THE FEDERAL BUDGET people!!!

Plus he is very plain-speaking, just like Trump, which is so damn refreshing.

Gingrich might make a better White House chief of staff.

It would be a disaster for Trump!

Newt is pure establishment and the defender of NAFTA.

Gingrich has done a lot of what Trump wants to do before. Gingrich would in truth bring great helpful direction to Republicans, but there is the issue of getting past the dog and pony show of pandering to low information voter for votes and two old guys might be a tougher sell, I don’t know.

Well Newtie, I was all for you taking that spot, until you open your mouth the other day about whites never being able to understand the black experience. Thanks for showing your true (progressive) colors. So, no thank you Mr. Gingrich. We will continue taking other applications for the position.

Newt Gingrich kind of sounds like he agrees with Black Lives Matter

Up until his comments about white America yesterday I was a big fan of Newt for VP. No any longer, Newt should have kept his mouth shut. His comments reminded me of Cruz’s comments blaming Trump for the anti-Trump riots.

"Asked if Trump has asked him to be running mate, Gingrich said, “No.” "

Well, that is kinda new news!

Newt would be great as a Chief of Staff, but the VPs first task should be to get the guy who is the #1 spot on the ticket elected. I'm not sure that Newt can do that.
