Well, to be entirely fair, they went after Newt like they are going after Trump.

And there was no wide spread internet available for people to go to for real news or to counter the opinions of the corrupt and degenerate MSM.
And, Gingrich didn’t have the chan/pol/ and /reddit/the_donald alliance of weaponized autists and meme warriors pumping up his volume either.
I’m not a huge fan of Gingrich but calling him spineless for getting beat then while Tump doesn’t now is like giving Clinton the economy credit that was created by Reagan’s efforts as well as the ability for industries to cut way back on warehouse storage footage through just in time warehousing made possible by computers and the new fangled internet gizmo.
You bring up some good points. Newt didn't have the internet to support him like Trump does today. I think that's one of the reasons why Newt folded.
Anyway I'm not sure why people are criticizing Newt's comment about Trump not having a good relationship with politicized intel agencies. Newt's right on target about this. Trump shouldn't...and he doesn't...
