“What’s happening is Newt will be Trump’s Chief of Staff or a high ranking cabinet official.”

That would be wonderful!

How funny would it be if Trump picked Newt and then put him in hiding for four months, and Warren can’t get any equal time.

Newt is older and a lot less fit than trump,he is great for chief of staff,especially since he knows the ins and outs of congress,and can be a great attack dog without sounding harsh. I do not know who he will pick,but the general would be better at Secretary of defense.

I still hold out hope that Newt won't be VP.

Anyone that has read Trump's books knows that he values loyalty above all.

Here is the person who has been loyal and supportive for over 10 years:

Chief of Staff. The latter is basically an appointment secretary, a job for a younger man.

I have wondered if his son, Erick Trump, is the one that will take that job. He seems to be doing something like that for Dad on the campaign trail.

The fact is Newt is the best choice to energize Republicans and deal with attacks from the left. Personal foibles aside, the man is brilliant.

Looks like everyone has Newtnesia here again. Let me jog your memory.

Newt Gingrich slammed ‘Fox & Friends’ for giving Donald Trump a massive platform http://www.aol.com/article/2016/02/23/newt-gingrich-slammed-fox-and-friends-for-giving-donald-trump-a/21317478/

Newt Gingrich: ‘If you are a normal white American ... you don’t understand being black in America’

Gingrich: Trump remarks about judge ‘mistake,’ ‘inexcusable’ http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/06/05/gingrich-trump-remarks-about-judge-mistake-inexcusable.html

Newt Gingrich kind of sounds like he agrees with Black Lives Matter https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/07/08/newt-gingrich-kind-of-sounds-like-he-agrees-with-black-lives-matter/

Yes Newt is going to have a position of responsibility in Trump’s admin.

That insinuation made by that photo is rather useless. Pelosi and Newt basically have been on opposite sides on 99% of the issues since forever...

insinuation? have you watched the ad they made to fight global warming? That’s what the photo comes from. No insinuation, just flat out selling us out.

Cnn’s Stelter:

“Source w/knowledge of Fox deliberations says Gingrich is likely to remain off the Fox payroll whether he’s VP or not”

Maybe Fox just has an itchy trigger finger to boot the Newt?

Odd how they waited until now? How long has it been speculated that Newt would be the VP but they’re just now cutting ties.
