Newt Gingrich's 'Gaslighting' Spin On Trump Speech Has Critics Saying 'OMFG'Critics on Wednesday wondered whether former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) had seen the same speech by President Donald Trump that everyone else had.
Gingrich gave a rave review of the presidents address to the nation, which has been widely mocked as a nothingburger by people on both sides of the aisle, on Sean Hannitys Fox News show.
To watch President Trump give a 19-minute disciplined speech that covered that many facts was worthy of [former President] Ronald Reagan, Gingrich gushed.
That was a good speech. It was an important speech, the longtime ally of Trump fawningly continued. Someday people will say it was one of the most important speeches of his career because it set the table for the entire debate over the next year and laid out what [former President Joe] Biden did to make the country a disaster, what Trump has already done, and where we are going in general, and why thats the right direction.

Senility is the only thing those two had in common.

POS.

......surprising, given that he was once credited with such keen political instincts. The ass kissing though?? Absolutely no surprise at all. Almost quaint at this point.

Perhaps someone animatronically reactivated his rotting corpse ? He hasn't been remotely relevant for years.

he has to stick his head up and unleash some loud croaks until he gets noticed again.
