Newt Gingrich had a rough time trying to withstand a fact checking of Donald Trump's many falsehoods under FNS' Chris Wallace' scrutiny.
Newt Gingrich did his best to try and stay on Trump's shortlist for VP on Fox News Sunday earlier today when he attempted to defend Trump's false statements about Hillary Clinton and his many flip flops on his own policies.
It culminated in this questing when Wallace asked, "On a trip to -- this trip this weekend to Scotland, Trump seemed to flip on two of his major policies. I'm going to talk about both of those. He now says he wants to ban Muslims only from what he calls terror states, not all Muslims as he said before. And he said he doesn't consider mass deportations part of his immigration plan."
"What does Trump stand for?"
This forced Gingrich to give an answer that would sink any other presidential candidate in any election. He said, "I think he stands for an evolving to come to grips with really big problems."

(23,970 posts)I read it 3 times, and have no clue. And the thought of that nonsensical statement being delivered in Gingrich's irritating nasal whine of presumed intellectual superiority renders even more horrifying.

(1,999 posts)If Trump "stuck to the facts" that would require him to admit he's the most unqualified candidate ever, and call for his followers to vote for somebody else.
