Newt Gingrich: You Cannot Allow this Man to Be Commander in Chief – For the Survival of this Nation (Video)
[GATEWAY] Newt Gingrich joined Sean Hannity on Friday following the release of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report on Thursday.

Robert Hur inserted into the report many unflattering references to Biden personally — calling him a "well-meaning, elderly man" with trouble remembering things. That included an event that has wounded the president deeply — the 2015 death of his son Beau.

Hur pardoned Joe Biden for taking classified documents and storing them in numerous locations — a criminal act for anyone who is not US President. Former President Donald Trump was indicted for much less.

#1 One advantage of proportional representation (there are also disadvantages - perfect is an abstract idea) is that (usually) no party can form a goverment by itself. Which leads to coalition negotiations - between professional con men politicians. Somebody like Biden, or Obama, or Bush II would be eaten alive. Trump would survive, maybe.

#2 The German chancellor was in the White House yesterday:

- Hello again, Mr. Adenauer!

#5 I believe the killer was 'universal franchise' with so many without skin the game getting a vote. It has devolved into 51% voting themselves the productivity of 49%. Theft by politician is still theft.

He has always been a broker and would be until the day he started talking to ghosts.

#9 Other than trying to eat pizza with the troops and such or downplay negative military situations, the only real Commander in Chiefy thing he has done is dust off the old set from Pink Floyd's The Wall add some riflemen, and passionately declare that 1/4 of the population of the US could be considered Enemies of the State as well as those who find themselves sympathetic.

#15 Due to age Biden was already weak. When Congress started in on him regarding his millions of dollars from China, etc. with his son, I expected that kind of pressure to accelerate his decline...
