Reason #1 why it is pure stupidity. I could list 100 more without breaking a sweat.

OTOH, Newt would make a great chief of staff.

Can anyone imagine what it would be like if Newt debated Elizabeth Warren? That debate would have the same ratings as the Super Bowl.

I love Newt but! Two septuagenarians on the ticket is not the best idea I have heard this year.
Trump and a Marsha Blackburn for President and Newt Gingrich for Secretary of Ideas.

The leader of the next biggest faction within the party? Or don’t you realize that?

Yep, Newt is the best choice he’s likely to make.

Selecting a General runs contrary to his claim to disentangle from engagements abroad.

Judging from the flak I’ve received here for promoting Newt these last 2 weeks, the only objectors are hard core Trump supporters.

This tells me Newt broadens the base.

We need a VP who can add to the election numbers, preferably in areas of weakness. Newt wouldn’t do that. I’m a massive Newt fan, but the VP office is still a pitcher of warm spit.

Petraeus would be a terrible choice.

Marsha Blackburn for Vice President and Newt Gingrich for Secretary of Ideas.

I like that too. Neutralize the hags on the other side.

Tom Brady.

Trump keeps bringing him up as his good friend and he would put New England into play enough that Hilldawg would have to devote resources to defend what should be locked away electoral votes.

And between Trump's family and Brady's, she wouldn't get one second of free television time or a single magazine cover.

Gingrich for VP. Trump can show his commitment to fighting global warming and working with Nancy Pelosi.

Newt will STEP IN IT too many times. He’s simply too easy for the media to make fun of, as in this:

"What possible use would Cruz be to the ticket?"

I agree that Cruz would be of no use and besides we don't need Glenn Beck running around inside the White House.

Thank you for forwarding. This is not a political selection for high school class VP. This is a necessary balance to the ticket. Trump listens. It comes out over and over. His Bravado is total show. He loves his country and he, like you and me , wants his country back. To do that , in reality, he must navigate the Washington and constitutional system. The Best in history at that was Newt. Clinton fell in line with Newt. The reason for that was Newt was right!! He understood the people wanted a CONTRACT!! a NO ,RUN TO THE HILLS, CONTRACT. We need Newt to navigate TRUMP!! Go TRUMP— Build that damned wall— I want to go there on this side!!~

I would like it to be Newt, but I intend to back anyone Trump chooses.

Folks, if you don’t know why Newt isn’t a good idea, please leave this issue to others.

Exactly my thought as well. He would be more powerful as CoS rather than VP

The next biggest faction is really a very small faction. That’s not a valid reason for putting him on the ticket.

Using that logic, Bernie would be better, he brings half the democrats.
