Gingrich: If Sanders Is the Nominee, There’s a ‘Much Greater Likelihood of Taking the Entire’ Dem Ticket ‘Down’

RUSH EXCERPT:

GINGRICH: “Look, we’re a country that elected an actor that made movies with chimpanzees, we elected a nuclear engineer peanut farmer. We elected a guy from Arkansas with no particular claim to be ready to be president. So, you know, a wide range of people have won the presidency. And I think those of us who watch in amazement as Donald Trump wiped out 16 competitors before taking on Clinton and beating her, I don’t want to be presumptive, so I would say that Sanders has a very distant possibility of winning. But it’s a much greater likelihood of taking the entire democratic ticket down, ending Pelosi’s speakership. He’s the greatest gift to Kevin Mccarthy, the Republican leader in the house you could possibly hope for. Because Sanders really is the true Democratic Party. He represents all of the big government ideas, all of the radicalism, all of the weird foreign policy that’s just at the heart of the democratic Party. And I think that the contrast between President Trump and his record, particularly on the economy, but just in general. I mean, think about the Trump judges and then ask, you know, can Sanders give us a list of people he would nominate to the Supreme Court? They would all be radicals. So, it could end up being one of the great historic campaigns in American history.”
