Openers:

You guys forgot Trump makes money if you like or hate him. In the end he wins not any of you guys.

There should be a daily column called: Things Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich Used to Think vs. Things Newt Gingrich Random American Now Thinks and Often Says Out Loud on Fox News. The one-time architect of the “Republican Revolution” in 1994, which petered out four years later forcing him from the speakership and coupled with questionable ethical moves ultimately from congress altogether, managed a second act in American politics by starting the Draft Newt presidential bid in 2012 that no one was exactly clamoring for. For Newt’s third, more visibly desperate, act, the one-time leader of the Republican party’s new strategy appears to be saying outlandish, often incoherent things diametrically opposed to what he’s said previously in an effort to support Donald Trump.

Gingrich, for instance, during the 2016 campaign joined Trump in bashing NAFTA—a free-trade deal he, of course, played a key role in getting passed. The most recent addition to the list of Gingrich reversals is his absurd stance that now that Donald Trump is president, the president of the United States is not even capable of obstructing justice. "Technically, the President of the United States cannot obstruct justice," Gingrich told the crowd at the National Press Club Friday during an event promoting his new book, wait for it, Understanding Trump. "The President of the United States is the chief executive officer of the United States. If he wants to fire the FBI director, all he's got to do is fire him."

New Gingrich’s views on obstruction of justice are a wee bit divergent from when his role as the Speaker of the House was LEADING the charge against President Bill Clinton and VOTING to impeach Clinton for articles of impeachment that included, among other things, an obstruction of justice charge. "What you have lived through for 2.5 long years is the most systematic, deliberate obstruction-of-justice, cover-up, and effort to avoid the truth we have ever seen in American history," Gingrich said in 1998. "The American people have the right to expect that the rule of law will prevail, that no one is above the law," Gingrich said on the House floor the same year. Times sure have changed.

Remember when Newt led the charge to impeach Bill for obstruction of justice?

I think anyone that spends enough time in DC will eventually have mental issues. Just like if you spend time here on FFXIAH.

but we're all in the same boat...the SS SinkingFast... because we drilled lots of holes in it...when we were bored.

I guess he has to be a more trustworthy source than the president himself.

something tells me most of us were broken long before we started hanging around here... and it's so loud that it's drowning out all the other voices, forcing me to listen...

ffxiah is the soup kitchen that never serves any soup, because the kitchen part was shut down by the health department a long time ago. but the tables and chairs are still here... so we're all just loitering around waiting for the aluminum shutters to be retracted on the video game junkies methadone clinic...that is across the street.

as much as I hate to be the bearer of bad news, even in the most dilapidated part of this collapsing rust belt, blighted inner city, run down, soupless soup kitchen... this isn't the cool kid's table.

no...we're in the worst part of the nerdliest nerd section and the only table lower is right behind us and it's NI... which is where I sit most of the time until I overhear something that sparks a connection in some long lost memory file and I lean over here to regurgitate gibberish, often accompanied by a foul smelling belch...

and sometimes it's funny in the same way that candlejack, muttering about trump while shuffling by wearing nothing but cheap flip flops and a dirty bath robe and carrying a dead squirrel is funny...

but we're all in the same boat...the SS SinkingFast... because we drilled lots of holes in it...when we were bored.

He's at least more trustworthy than Washington Post, and their unverified anonymous sources.

When will libs finally accept they lost?

Probably never.

2020 elections or Trump wanting to go back to his previous life.

TFW trump doesnt return to prvate life and wins 2020.

Maybe that's the real goal the liberals/democrats have. Make Trump's life miserable enough where he either resigns or doesn't run for reelection.
