dammit Pence...
I wish he had picked Gingrich
Gingrich would not pull this kind of crap.
Newt would be worse.
Gingrich said last night that Trump should endorse Ryan and McCain because he needs them in his administration and this sideshow about not endorsing them is unhelpful
So yeah, Gingrich the professional pol knows who to stroke
I think Gingrich has already pulled this crap several times.
Sure he would in fact he scolded Trump yesterday for picking on them.
"Let me just say flatly, I am totally for John McCain, who is a great war hero and a terrific human being, who has worked very hard for veterans. And I’m totally for Paul Ryan, who is the heart of the House Republican Party and probably the most problem-solving leader we’ve had in the Congress on the Republican side in the last 20 years," Gingrich said in an interview with Fox Business Network Wednesday. "So I think somewhat what Trump has done is just very self-destructive."
Depends on what day of the week it is.
He did it to those he helped get elected in '96!
Gingrich stabbed them in the back to keep his "private affair with the lovely Calista" private!
Some of us have memories longer than two election cycles!
Conservatives in Indiana weren't sure Pence could get reelected after stabbing them in the back over his homo agenda sell out!
Mike Pence is feeling the heat, he still wants to be on good terms with the Establishment.
Newt would likely endorse Paul Ryan as well, I think.
On Fox Business Network this morning, Gingrich told Maria Bartiromo, “Trump is still behaving like as though it was the primaries and there are 17 candidates. He has not made the transition.”
He said that Trump is “not yet performing at the level that you need to” for a presidential candidate, making so many fumbles and not reaching certain standards.
Gingrich even went so far as to basically scold Trump for his refusal to support John McCain and Paul Ryan.
gingrichNewt Gingrich is reportedly one of the top Republicans staging an intervention for Donald Trump, and based on his comments about Trump earlier today, you can see why.
Yes, the man who was considered a top pick for Trump’s VP is pretty pissed off at him right now. On Fox Business Network this morning, Gingrich told Maria Bartiromo, “Trump is still behaving like as though it was the primaries and there are 17 candidates. He has not made the transition.”
He said that Trump is “not yet performing at the level that you need to” for a presidential candidate, making so many fumbles and not reaching certain standards.
Gingrich even went so far as to basically scold Trump for his refusal to support John McCain and Paul Ryan.
“Some of what Trump has done,” he concluded, “has been very self-destructive.”
But more damaging is what Gingrich told The Washington Post today. Let me emphasize these are quotes from Newt Gingrich:
“The current race is which of these two is the more unacceptable, because right now neither of them is acceptable,” Gingrich said in a Wednesday morning telephone interview. “Trump is helping her to win by proving he is more unacceptable than she is.”
Gingrich said Trump has only a matter of weeks to reverse course. “Anybody who is horrified by Hillary should hope that Trump will take a deep breath and learn some new skills,” he said. “He cannot win the presidency operating the way he is now. She can’t be bad enough to elect him if he’s determined to make this many mistakes.”
You think Gingrich would refrain from endorsing Ryan?? Are you an idiot?
Um, check The Weekly Standard. They are reporting Newt saying both candidates are unacceptable and right now Trump is more unacceptable than Clinton.
This is not how you win elections. Don’t pick fights where you don’t need to and don’t take the bait.
“I wish he had picked Gingrich
Gingrich would not pull this kind of crap.”
Sure he would. I heard Gingrich on the news today spouting BS about how the Trump campaign is in disarray.
He doesn’t seem any more loyal than any other career politician (which means not at all).
Gingrich wouldn’t pull this crap?
Who are you trying to kid?
Yeah, but Freepers chant the Gingrich “baggage” mantra instead of paying attention to his 2012 positions and debating points.
I just heard Newt on Fox yesterday praising Ryan and McCain and saying than every conservative Republican should support them.
“Trump is helping her (Hillary) to win by proving he is more unacceptable than she is.” (Newt Gingrich, 8/3/16)
