3:50Now PlayingThe race for picking Donal Trump’s running mate has begun. Is Sheldon Adelson working to have Newt Gingrich be picked? Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Donald Trump has to choose a running mate, and the question of if Newt Gingrich will be Donald Trump’s vice president has emerged among the speculated candidates. Although it's an unlikely option, Gingrich has been vocal about the possibility of sharing the ticket with Trump. The former House Speaker and failed presidential candidate has made it clear that he’d happily serve as Trump's veep, and Trump is reportedly considering him.
There is a case to be made for him. Gingrich is well-versed in policy nuance, and has a reputation as an “ideas guy” in the Republican Party. Granted, a lot of his ideas are bad — eliminating child labor laws, putting mirrors in space to stop global warming — but the fact that he even has policy chops at all would lend (some) credibility to Trump’s campaign, which is so far based more on barked insults and machismo than coherent policy solutions. Gingrich is also well-versed in GOP politics, having led the party’s takeover of the House of Representatives in the 1990s.”
