In a column for Fox News Thursday, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich wrote he believes Washington will experience a ‘great political surprise,’ in 2018. The reason? Payback for lying about President Trump and his accomplishments.

“The great political surprise of 2018 will be the size of the Republican victory,” contends the Trump surrogate.

Gingrich writes:

After members of the elite media have spent two years savaging President Trump, lying about Republican legislation, and reassuring themselves that Republican defeat was inevitable, the size of the GOP victory in 2018 will be an enormous shock. […]

The key to a Democrat victory is to label all Republicans pedophiles and outspend them 10 to 1.

Stabby the Clown has infected every usually straight forward commentator with the tease/drama gene. I am off Hannity until he gets his sanity back. BOOM!

I agree; after all the pounding he has taken look where his numbers are....https://twitter.com/DRUDGE/status/946392234403991552

46/53

same as the Kenyan’s were after a year.

Add the boost from the tax cuts and an infrastructure bill and you have the perfect slogan “Look what we have done...think what we can do”

Trump is turning all the promises the GOP has been making into reality. The nation has been waiting for this President for a long, long time.

Hate to star counting them chickens now.

Can’t take anything for granted. We lost in Alabama. The left is fired up. This is no time to sit back and bask in the sunlight.

It won’t be a big victory like 2006 was for the Dems.

Just the fact that Trump is above 50% approval in fake polls is evidence that he is winning despite 95% negative coverage in MSM.

Newt agrees with me. I’m taking bets I’m right.

It would be real nice if Hiliary and her whole gang got found out completely and were handcuffed, tried, found guilty and jailed to the firmest extent of the law.

Hillary has, herself already pronounced the sentence for her and her co-conspirators.

hint: See tagline

Obama got fewer votes in 2012, than McCain got in 2008. The only reason that Obama won in 2012 is because conservatives stayed home.

The same will be true in the mid-term, if conservatives stay home, as they did in AL, and VA, then Dems will win big. Newt is saying that the tax bill will be enough to get conservatives out, and vote for 'rinos', if they don't, Nancy Pelosi will be the next Speaker.

Also remember this is the same Newt who said Trump could win but probably won’t. https://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/15/upshot/how-trump-could-win-and-why-he-probably-wont.html

This will not be like normal off year elections
Trump winning has completely energized the left
They will probably turnout in 2016 numbers not the normal drop off for off years
Look at Alabama
Dems turned out BIG TIME and the GOP stayed home and allowed a complete left winger to win

There will be plenty of shocks before the election.

They are coming slowly to give people a chance to adjust and so as to not upset the great financial progress that has been made.

The Pow’rs of Hell will be spending and brainwashing at a record pace to gain an impeachment majority. It is for their survival, Trump is The existential threat to the evil swamp.

The GOP hasn’t defended Trump enough. I don’t think his supporters will turnout.

The Dems have to protect 24 Senate seats and 2 independent seats including Bernie.

The Pubs have to defend 8.

Not much for the left to pick up. They’ll be lucky to keep 20 seats.
