Gingrich is a bad idea.

Gingrich is an example of the personality disorder which cannot leave the stage—I find him rather inauthentic, but probably most politicians are.

He began as a Rockefeller Republican, then went to conservatism after Reagan. After his Speaker of the House days, he cut commercials with Pelosi about global warming.

In 2012 Sheldon Adelson financed him and he ran as the most globalist candidate in the field. Four years later, he supports Trump!

Trump needs entry to achieve his goals - Gingrich has keys to locked doors. This is a winning strategy.

Trump-Gingrich ticket’s brilliant.

Agreed. Gingrich has a wealth of baggage.

Wanted to note that I received my CA Sample Ballot” this past Monday and there are five candidates listed for President of the United States. Trump is at the top of the list followed by Carson, Cruz, Kasich and Gilmore........

Gingrich produced the economic miracle of the late 90s that klinton was given credit for. John Kasich wrote the budget that produced the projected surplus. klinton was only along for the ride.

I agree. Get the impression Gingrich is semi retired and does not have the energy to be on a Trump staff.

Newt would make a great Sec of State or White House Chief of Staff. Much as I hate to say it Kasich looks like the best pick. Just to help him Trump carry Ohio. He has none of Trump’s positions and way too liberal so he’ll be involved in no decision making anyway. Something tells me Trump picks no one who seems likely. Just have to wait and see.

I think it is a good idea.

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.
