NEWT:
Well, President Trump has half or more of the Republican base, I think, pretty well locked up. I think they’re going to stick with him no matter what. The rest is scattered. But what people need to remember is we went through this in 2016, and I think there were a total of 16 candidates. And as they drop out, people say, oh, they’re all going to go to the non-Trump candidate. That didn’t happen. I just talked to one pollster two days ago who said that if DeSantis, for example, were to drop out, at least half of his vote would go to Trump. Well, you add that to what Trump already has in his back up above 60% against the entire field. So unless something really dramatically happens, I think that Trump is the almost inevitable nominee. You know, nothing is totally inevitable in politics, but he certainly has massive advantages going into Iowa and New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada. And he could come out of those four having decisively won the nomination
NEWT:
Well, I think he’ll be indicted at least two more times. He’ll be indicted probably certainly in the District of Columbia by the totally. I think a partisan Department of Justice. And he may be indicted in Atlanta by an equally partisan Democrat or a local district attorney. But I think what’s happened is in Trump’s world, that’s interpreted as persecution, not prosecution. And so people believe that this is a deliberate effort and they look at how the Bidens are treated. They look at how Hillary Clinton was treated. And they say, you know, there’s such a gigantic double standard here that, you know, how can you how can you possibly believe this is about the criminal justice system? This is an effort to use the law to destroy a political opponent, something which, frankly, has never been done in American history. And it’s kind of astonishing that the Democrats are this desperate and that they’re willing to manipulate and use the law this decisively. It’s it’s an example of the depth of their corruption.
NEWT:
Look, I think when Robert Kennedy Jr said there has to be an investigation. He saw the beginning of a break in the whole dam, as facts way up day after day after day. At some point, the New York Times, The Washington Post, and the big media conglomerates, are going to realize they’re on the wrong side of history. And as they do that and you’ll see this, the tide shift already you’re seeing a little more coverage of the problems. You’ve seen The New York Times beginning to behave as though maybe it’s on the wrong side of these things. The Devin Archer, if he comes in again, the pressure on him to not testify is enormous. But if he does come in and he does say flatly, look, I was in the room, I saw it. There’s no question it happened. First of all, it will prove conclusively that Joe Biden has lied to the entire country for years. Second, it’ll raise significant questions because so much of this money is foreign money. This isn’t just your standard corruption problem. This is a foreign influence buying problem involving the president of the United States. And to the degree I’m just now reading Ball of Collusion by Andy McCarthy, which was written way back in 2019. And it is astonishing how he takes apart all these things. And one of the things that led me to realize is Biden learned in part from Hillary Clinton. The Clintons used government to raise so much money and it’s still never been investigated. It should be. The Clinton Foundation became their device for huge amounts. I mean, $35 million in one case. So the Bidens in that sense, are just kind of, you know, little thieves as compared to the Clintons, the Clintons who were taking money on a grand scale. But Biden learned from that. You can do it. You can get away with it. There’s no legal consequence. So why shouldn’t I have the money, too? And so you have a guy who, at least since the vice presidency, has been taking money.
