Gingrich? Another disgraced politician.

Notice how all the establishment republicans come out to play? Why?

Because they have no future in politics and only the commentary circuit to hope to stay relevant. Being used by the democrats is all about prositution.

Naah, you're giving Cruz way too much credit. A better explanation would be Cruz calculating that Trump would implode and be a short term phenomenon, and what better way than to distance himself from Trump and position himself for 2020?

Yeah, the Trump camp already has its drama queen, no others are allowed.

Newt has been on CNN and I believe Fox News the last few years.

I honestly think the establishment is coming out because they couldn't do it during Cleveland. Teflon Trump was able to have nothing stick. Now with the Kahn comments, the coating is cracking and Trump is getting veterans against him, even the VFW is denouncing him. I don't think the VFW ever denounced someone.

Yes, they have. But denouncing a Republican presidential candidate - this indeed may be a first.

A month ago he was kissing Trump's ass. Now his speaking ill of him. Go away Gingrich. Nobody likes a front-runner.

I'll just leave this here. You guys can watch the video, and then try to spin and deflect. As for me, I don't care what any of you have to say, including cheating Gingrich. This is despicable and indefensible.

Thank gawd Gingrich was around to rein in the real jerk--Bill Clinton.

Talking Newt Gingrich: Trump is more unacceptable than Hillary is

Just another GOP rat abandoning the ship.
