I've been thinking it through. This would have been a minor blip, and Trump would've clarified and expanded on his concerns about the judge, then moved on.

It blew up and lasted the whole week, giving hillary an opening, because of Gingrich's remarks.

Is Gingrich that dumb, speaking against Trump before Trump had the opportunity to clarify his remarks? Or is Gingrich actually a Republican party lapdog who has been working from inside the campaign? I wonder. Gingrich isn't stupid.

I agree. Newt could have snuffed this matter out by clarifying instead of ignited the firestorm.

He's a traitor to the cause.

It is possible that he realized he wasn't going to be selected as VP and was vulnerable to overtures coming from the #nevertrump crowd.

Whatever happened is now irrelevant. Newt is dead meat.

Looks to me like Gingrich let the fawning VP talk get to his head. He’s been way over the line lately in his attacks on Trump.

That's exactly what he is. He screwed the pooch in the government shutdown melee under Clinton. He's a smart guy, but he says the right thing on a less reliable basis than Trump does; and I would not trust Gingrich to do the right thing, on anything.
