Rather emphatic for Sean. I like Newt - a lot. But his is old, and I would hope that Trump picks an asset VP with an eye towards succession, not a one off, help for today only asset.
You forgot BARF ALERT
I agree with you.
Newt is a Globalist
Rest assured it will not be Newt.
As veep, Gingrich would also be president of the Senate, but he’d really be a key player all around.
As some sort of side advisor, he’d constantly be having to assert his authority indirectly.
“And I wouldn’t be happy with anyone other then Sarah Palin.”
Another one I sincerely hope finds a place in the administration, but not as VP. She was made radioactive. Unfairly, unjustly, even criminally maligned, but it happened. She would not help the ticket, but I hope and pray she would get a substantive position in the administration.
Its likely going to be Pence. But Newt knows he will get a plum job someplace. Maybe National Security Advisor.
I didn’t know this but we only established diplomatic relations with Mongolia in 1987.
LOL. There are other alternatives.
Governor Greg Abbott of Texas
Senator Jeff Sessions
Christie could destroy Hillarys VP in a debate..destroy! I m the only one on here that thinks Christie would be the best.
We saw what he did to little marco. He is younger too. I dont trust Newt and Im from GA..but if he is chosen ill support him wholeheartedly
Pence never even talks about social issues, it isn’t part of his agenda and when he does you get the impression he lives in a right-wing bubble. It is a total disaster for him.
You probably just haven’t seen enough of Christie to dislike him sufficiently. (I am from the NYC area.)
None of them are trustworthy. Christie would have been on that couch with Pelosi and Newt would have probably given Barry that critical bear hug as the sentiment turned toward his re-election in 2012.
But at least Newt has a few conservative bones in his body.
Newt is a terrible choice, Sean.
Actually, Hannity was the best of the talk radio bunch, he was the only honest broker of all of them. He was never anti-Trump, not in the slightest, he gave him lots of interview times, and allowed him to explain himself.
Levin is the craziest, he's still in mourning, still in #nevertrump land to his personal shame. Rush went against his own maxim, that he wouldn't endorse someone, and wouldn't hurt a potential winning candidate against the dems. I think he did great damage during the two months before Cruz dropped out, damage I hear from friends still today. I'm glad he stopped, but I wish Rush would apologize to his audience and admit what he did when he went into the tank for Cruz and constantly berated Trump and his supporters.
Hannity needs not give any apology, he played it correctly. I find him a bit boring, but he was the best of the most popular talk show hosts, by far.
I’m a bit surprised Sean would make such a statement. He’s probably going to have to find a way to walk it back, is my guess.
They will likely have to announce the location soon and then everyone will be on VP watch. Exciting times and hope it is Newt.
Sean is one of the best communicators for conservatism. He gave the swift boat veterans a lot of coverage in the 2004 election and he is relentless when he goes after the left. He has the facts and figures and is very sharp when debating the left.
Newt has shown over the decades he loves our country. He would be a great addition as VP in the Trump Administration.
The Clintons hava a MINO - Marriage in Name Only.
If the left wants to criticize Trump or Newt, then it would give the right the opportunity to question why the Clintons are never in the same location other than a few times a year. In other words, only when it helps them politically.
“Actually, Hannity was the best of the talk radio bunch, he was the only honest broker of all of them. He was never anti-Trump, not in the slightest, he gave him lots of interview times, and allowed him to explain himself.”
Yes. His stock went up a lot with me, from its 2012 low.
What I heard was the best he has done over the years. Fair and objective with all the candidates, intimidated by none of them.
