Donald Trump arrested: Gingrich says Trump is a threat like 'Reagan was to the Soviet empire'

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said former President Donald Trump is “a live direct threat to the death of corruption, dishonesty, and extremism” of the Left.

While appearing on Life, Liberty, & Levin, Gingrich said the allegations facing former President Donald Trump have “no parallel” because Trump is the “first person to have the courage and the willpower to take on the entire corrupt, extremist establishment. And they're fighting in the fight of their life.”

“Trump is to the domestic corrupt establishment what Ronald Reagan was to the Soviet empire,” Gingrich said.

"The truth is the indictment in New York is an absurdity. And I’ve said over and over, it has nothing to do with the indictment. It has everything to do with Donald Trump. If Trump had gone home to Mar-a-Lago, relaxed, given up his future, said he is going just to retire, none of this would be happening. But he is a live, direct threat to the depth of corruption, dishonesty, and extremism which now dominates the establishment," he said.

The Establishment destroyed Gingrich the same way and he was nowhere near the threat.

We still have some vestigial freedoms and democratic institutions. They have not all been taken abolished, but they are teetering on the brink of extinction.

Except that Trump is actually a threat to the Ukrainians, who are Biden’s anointed and also his family’s income source. Or maybe not...with Trump, you never know.

Trump is the first and only president to take on the establishment. Many say they don’t like the way he speaks harshly. You have to deal harshly with the evil left. I will crawl over broken glass and nails to vote for Trump. In my life I have seen about one third of all the American presidents, namely Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden. Only Trump was willing to take on the establishment. Reagan was great but the establishment wasn’t quite as well established in his day as in Trumps.

Anyone in politics knows this. Any one who is running against President Trump knows this. Which means if they run against Trump they are part of the problem.

I like DeSantis in Florida and hope he stays there at least for the time being but he is not near the man Trump is for the job.

I see JFK as a martyr to taking on the establishment.

But was Trump really arrested? Nobody actually saw it. Just take the news anchors word for it. 😏

We’re both a Banana Republic and the USSR.

Worse than that even. We got our hooks embedded everywhere. We make the Soviets look like pikers.

I agree. Trump is the only one who can deal with the problems we face.

All perfectly stated and perfectly TRUE. Now if only there was some way to awaken the millions of brain-dead voters who haven’t figured that out yet, President Trump would easily win his third consecutive presidential election!

Here’s the final thoughts of RFK, Jr. ending a speech given recently at Hillside College:

ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR.’s Concluding Remarks at Hillsdale College

I’ll leave you with three thoughts:

1. Any power that government takes from the people, it will never return voluntarily.

2. Every power that government takes, it will ultimately be abused to the maximum extent possible.

3. Nobody ever complied their way out of totalitarianism. The only thing we can do is resist.

Hard to believe, but this man is a DEMOCRAT !
