A Trump-Gingrich Ticket: Brilliant or Crazy?

NRO ^ | May 4, 2016 | Myra Adams

[N. Theknow]

Gingrich would be a good choice in several ways.

He knows Congress.

He knows Congress critters.

He can totally rebut any and all Clinton claims of 1990's economic prosperity under the Pervert-In-Charge.

Being a heartbeat away from the Presidency he would be a life insurance policy for Trump and anti-impeachment insurance.

He would totally own any debates.

Sessions or Gingrich would be Brilliant!

[dragnet2]

I tend to agree. Gingrich would work fine.

Lets face it, there are very few in D.C. that will even be considered. Gingrich would fit the bill.

You know I NEVER though of Hermain Cain however I REALLY like that idea!!! NO WOMEN for me either and I am a woman!!!!

[nikos1121]

I agree totally with these points of yours.

There are two slots in which Gingrich would be excellent: White House Chief of Staff or Senior Political Advisor to the President. Here he could deploy his many gifts. The only woman I think who is uniquely qualified is Condi Rice.

[novemberslady]

I agree with you-Not a Woman.

I like the idea of Newt as Chief of Staff or Senior Political Advisor.

Herman Cain is a no go for me-empowerment zones...really? No thank you.

I like the idea of Jeff Sessions for VP very much.

[novemberslady]

Should bring in George Allen...

[RayofHope]

Session’s signed on early, gutsy on his part and he well respected..............

[Albion Wilde]

NO WOMEN for me either and I am a woman!!!!

So am I.

[Albion Wilde]

The only woman I think who is uniquely qualified is Condi Rice.

Just to be clear, that last part was not my point, but yours. Just a typographic distinction.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

Just realized your moniker, should have figured it out. Call me stupid... : )

[nikos1121]

I don’t think there is any woman out there viably qualified to by VP, but it would be in our best interest to have a woman running with him. I think you did say you thought he should have a woman VP?

[MHGinTN]

Newt has a massive ego, so does Trump. Could those two work together as Pres and V Pres? I don’t know. But with energy management and the environment as major concerns in America, I suggest Sarah Palin would be an excellent choice for Trump’s first term. For his second term he could change the VP running mate. The contrast between Hillary and Sarah would remove many women’s votes from the Demonrat ticket.

You've put some thought into this and it shows... nice work Albion... Trump will figure this one out but it seems lots of us feel Gingrich should be on the team somewhere.. . But maybe VP isn't the place. Gingrich is a 'Big Picture' type so I have reservations about Chief of Staff.. time will tell.

[elpadre]

points well taken - thanks

[Albion Wilde]

No, definitely not a woman VP.

[A CA Guy]

Not really, Gingrich would add much needed details to Donald’s goals and Gingrich’s ability to operate in Washington is legendary.

People need fixers, not priests for leaders right now.

Sorry I did not have time before work to respond.
I hope he thinks this out thoroughly. I've no idea who'll pick other than what he said. Probably an establish republican senator or politician.
I just want to win and beat Hillary.
I've no problem who he picks as VP.
Trump has not let me down! I Trust TRUMP! :)

[djstex]

Ditto!
Ha! love it!

[djstex]

I didn't have time to respond this morning.
I listened for the first time on my way home to Mark Levin on the radio. He's so bitter and said Newt is so far up Trump that's he wanting the VP spot.
I cannot for the life of me understand Mark's obsession in degrading anything and everything Trump.
I hope and pray Trump picks someone for only the main objective is to Win,regardless who it is.
I Trust TRUMP!
