Gingrich pushed back on Hannity's nationally-syndicated radio show Tuesday when asked about Bannon's comments.

“The point I would make as a strategist is you got 10 Democrats up next year in states Trump carried,” Gingrich noted. “You have six Democrats up next year in states Trump carried by a huge margin. Now you take the amount of money Bannon is going to raise. If he spent that money in North Dakota, Montana, Indiana, Missouri, West Virginia — the fact is you would have such a big Republican majority, you’d pass the stuff you guys want to pass."

"Creating a civil war inside the Republican Party may feel good, but I think as a strategy, it is stunningly stupid. I’m just being really honest," he added.

You're actually siding with Newt?

Bookmarked.

I've got bad news for ya. They don't want to pass the things we want. See the repeal and replace vote.

Drain it.

Newt is implying that Bannon is the one who started/is starting the war within the party and that is just not right.

The American people had and are having a say in whether establishment politics will burn...

That's Newt's key assumption. It is wrong.

Gotta purge the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Republicans (GOPe) from the party and start giving working class Americans some love. The GOPe are a real big problem. That is who Bannon is trying to purge or convert.

Burn it down. The party needs a total overhaul and voters made this clear it's what we wanted when Trump took the primary.

I don't see why Bannon can't place attention on both getting rid of the GOPe cucks and placing Reps in the Dems' seats.

Newt is like the perpetually spinning top in an Inception dream, this guarantees he will call Bannon's primary wars brilliant within a year

For a lot of these seats it's probably gonna be much easier to replace the recucklican with a trump baw than to get a trump baw in a dem seat

If there's a place that already has a dem it's probably because it has large numbers of the demographic that 99.9% votes democrat and you can't change that

Newt’s a fat, old, bitter clown. He and Bannon are kindred spirits in their apparent contempt for American values. He used to be a pragmatic guy. Just a buck/relevance-chasing hack now.

Every single one of Trump’s whores will share in his failures and destructive antics.

Counterpoint: Newt was always a buck-chasing hack.

I would have thought being so dead wrong about TRUMP for two years straight now unabated would have humbled most NeverTrumps, but no some people are stubborn I guess. Maybe when he gets reelected and gives us a 7-2 SCOTUS majority TRUMP will finally make the naysayers quit.

You’re rooting swine. 3rd worst Trumpkin on the whole board. One can tell that many of you are starting to see what we were right about all along. The man is unfit.

But you hold out.
