Former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) on Thursday dismissed recent questions about the health of Hillary Clinton and medical treatments the Democratic presidential nominee is receiving.

"I think we ought to recognize that's kind of junk medicine," Gingrich said on "Fox and Friends." "That's not the real deal."

Which side is this asshole on?

She has problems, and if you can’t admit that to yourself, STHU.

Still, the Pelosi Couch Syndrome. Regrettable.

I think Newt is in a contest with the Pope to see who can shoot their mouth off half-cocked the most in any one day. Newt can say some very insightful things. But he also can talk way too much for his and his candidate’s own good.

I wonder if the Clintons are trying to bait Trump into overplaying her health so much so that if she simply makes it through the debates without incident, she is the best debater of all time?

When did Newt start working for the Hillary campaign??

Stupid statements like this, and publicly criticizing Trump and airing out the campaigns dirty laundry on TV is NOT what a surrogate does!

What evidence does he have to support that claim? Sounds just as junkie to me.

Maybe he is afraid this could blow up into something that would knock her out and put Biden in.

His mask was off a while back. But some people want to continue to fool themselves.

8 years ago at this time there were folks looking at McCain’s skin problems and saying he might not survive the first term. 8 years later that SOB is still kicking around. Never count on the Grim Reaper to solve your problems, he never seems to be on the schedule you want.

He is right. What legitimate doctor would diagnose by watching someone on TV?

He should have just said he is not a doctor and does not know.
This is Newt keeping doors open to the establishment in case his guy Trump loses.

"Because next you are going to get a left-wing psychiatrist explaining [Republican presidential nominee] Donald Trump in negative terms."

I guess Newt was out of the country two weeks ago

I saw the interview on Fox and Friends. Once again the media is stretching the story.

What he said was that we should all be concerned about Hillary whether we agree with her or not. And the fact that Dr. Drew was making those statements without having the opportunity of a physical exam, as ‘junk medicine’ and we should not take to heart what a TV doctor has to say.

The media is rotten to the core on how they twist these things.

Newt, diagnoses from afar... are inherently problematical. So, yes I agree with you but ONLY to a degree. TAKE A LOOK AT HILLIARY. She is obviously quite ill, and has been for some time. Exactly what diagnosis? I can’t say. But, she’s definitely suffering from some pretty serious medical condition(s).... just look and see, Newt. Just look and see..

What ‘private’ prior undisclosed ‘doctor’ would issue a blanket bill of health and, if we are to believe assertions by Hillary’s campaign, still stands by that odd letter?

The biggest error made by pundits on the right has always been to over-hype the current Clinton problem, raising expectations, only to have them dashed, even though the Clintons were guilty in the first place.

This health thing will play itself out, regardless of the hype. What we don’t need is an MSM proclaiming a “heroic” effort at the debates by Clinton, simply because she survived them.
