Gingrich: Tax Cuts Are ‘Life and Death’ for House GOP; ‘If We Have a Bad Economy Next Year, Republicans Will Not Keep the House’

EXCERPT:

GINGRICH: “You know — you know, Henry Kissinger told me one time that every major decision that he was involved in took 48 hours, that you weren’t quite sure when the 48 hours is going to occur, but when it came down to the crunch, it took 48 hours. Sooner or later, the problems aren’t going to go away. We know what they are. And I must say, I think that the Chairman Guthrie, for example, Chairman Smith in the House have really done a great job of bringing their teams together. I think you’re going to see an awful lot of conversations, and eventually over the next couple weeks, they’ll grind their way to a solution. But look, this is life and death for the House Republican Party because they have to have a strong economy in 2026 if they’re going to have a chance to keep their majority. If we have a bad economy next year, Republicans will not keep the House. So, the Senate doesn’t feel the same pressure, which is unfortunate. But I think from the standpoint of President Trump, it’s very clear that he has to have a Republican House and Senate if he’s going to make the last two years of his term successful.”
