Newt Gingrich on Fox News Primetime | April 21, 2021

NEWT:

I’m delighted and you are talking about a topic that was made, I think even more relevant by the speeches last night by the president and vice president and by the tweet today by the secretary of state, you know, the Chinese communists don’t need a propaganda department. All they got to do is show film of Biden, Harris, and others who themselves condemn the United States. It’s amazing to watch as Americans do the bidding of the Chinese communist dictatorship and if I was Xi Jinping I would seriously consider closing the propaganda office and just showing film of American politicians who attack America. It’s truly astonishing and that’s another contrast with the cold war. Other than people like Bernie Sanders, almost nobody in the Cold War thought the Soviet Union was good. Today there are billionaires who love the Chinese dictatorship because it made them that rich.

NEWT:

Well, look, I think there has been a huge shift in the American people towards understanding that the Chinese communist dictatorship is just that and I think that’s a precursor to a lot of other changes that are coming down the road pretty rapidly. But, to understand how truly sick this is, I think you could take Biden and Harris’ speeches and match them up to the Chinese foreign minister in Anchorage where he lectured Americans about their domestic weaknesses, and I bet you couldn’t tell which paragraph was which. Because the left in the U.S. dislikes America at least as much as the Chinese communists do. And it’s one of the most amazing moments in history to have a country which is so remarkable that millions of people are breaking the law to come here. They don’t think we have institutional racism. They think we have opportunity. They don’t think we are trapped cancel culture they think we have rule of law. Yet now the people in charge almost all of them dislike America would tear it down if they could and believe in a model of the world that frankly just doesn’t work.

NEWT:

I think the first thing to do is take head on the realization that what you are seeing is the new racism as you would point out earlier you have hospitals that say they are going to treat people based on racial standing. That is just plain, first of all it’s illegal. Second of all its overt racism. Republicans have to learn to win the argument about who is the real racist. The real racists are people like Biden and Harris. The real racists are the people who want to set quotas mostly by the way excluding Asian Americans. The real racists are the people who want to brainwash your child so that they feel guilty about being born white or being born of mixed background. And I think we have got to be much tougher, Republicans have to just as I think that Kevin McCarthy took a first step in moving to censure Maxine Waters for engaging in totally outrageous and I think dangerous policies the party has to learn how to fight again. When I grew up and worked with Reagan in the 1970s and 1980s. We didn’t have Rush Limbaugh and Fox News we didn’t have all sorts of advantages. But we knew how to fight. And the Republican party has to start fighting again.
