Gingrich is a committed Republican who has been consistently supportive of Trump for years — but he has recently been warning Trump not to move forward with his ideas for mass deportation, telling him only his most hardcore fans want such a draconian policy and that the American people will turn on him quickly if the news is full of children and hardworking families being rounded up.

    Every engaged trump supporter I know is perfectly fine with mass deportation because they are too daft to understand it WILL effect them.

    It isnt fringe shit and their attempt to split the gop and do damage control is laughable. Y’all created this bull, let it out of the gate, now it’s time to ride it or get gored dipshits.

    warning shot

    Warning shot implies that Gingrich has the ability to do actual damage to Trump if he wanted to, but come on… we all know the only thing this philandering, hypocritical, rage-baiting has-been could ever do damage to is an all-you-can-eat buffet.

      He’s ambulatory giving the appearance of life. Unclear if that’s real or his soulless animated carcass is being driven by pure hate and ignorance.

    The idea that any meda outlet will even mention that children and hardworking families are being rounded up is adorable. The billionaires bought all the networks and newspapers for a reason - so that there’d be no way to embarrass the Great and Powerful Trump.

    Newt is the old version of being a Republican nasty. Call it like 3.1 edition. And yes, he updated the dirty tricks and nastiness of the bygone versions.

    The qons have iterated through several versions of Republican nastiness and are way beyond that now and most of them probably consider Newt a relic.
