Newt Gingrich: ‘Trump’s Ultimate Commitment Is to a Very Prosperous America’; ‘This Is a Guy Who Understands the Economy’

EXCERPT:

GINGRICH: “I was — had the opportunity to be with President Trump in all three of his meetings last Thursday, very issue-oriented, very positive. In every meeting, he talked about eliminating the tax on tips, which I think politically is a brilliant idea, and poses for the Democrats, are you really going to vote against a tax cut for what used to be the very base of your party, hardworking Americans who are eking out a living and who are very heavily taxed? But Trump’s ultimate commitment is to a very prosperous America. He understands that. I heard him in the meeting with the roundtable CEOs, he gets it that deregulation is as important as tax cuts, that you’ve got to do both. And he is committed, I think, to coming in with a strategy that will dramatically strengthen the American economy and will create a lot more jobs for all Americans.”
