    EXCERPT:

    GINGRICH: “Well, and you almost guarantee losing the Republican House next year and ruining the last two years of President Trump’s term, with Hakeem Jeffries playing the Nancy Pelosi role, investigations, blocking programs, potential impeachments. I mean, there’s a lot at stake here. And it, frankly, mystifies me as to how House and Senate Republicans can’t understand, you’ve got to plan back from victory, and the victory here is winning in November of 2026, that requires a very strong economy. That requires a very strong tax cut, deregulation, pro-energy, affordability bill, certainly no later than May or June. And I cannot understand these guys, you know, I lived through it. Reagan lost 26 seats in the first off-year election because his tax cuts didn’t go into effect until 1983. Trump lost 42 seats in his first off-year election because the tax bill didn’t pass till October. When I hear senators saying oh, we’ll pass the easy bill early, and we’ll get around to the other bill by October, they are talking about killing the chances of keeping the House Republican, it makes no sense to me.”
