Newt Gingrich to Fox News: You ‘Invented’ Donald Trump

The former House speaker took to ‘Fox & Friends’ airwaves Monday to explain how they helped create the monstrosity that is The Donald 2016.

Newt Gingrich is known for speaking his mind, often bluntly and without regards to politeness. That personality trait came in handy Monday on Fox & Friends, when the former House speaker told the right-leaning gabfest's hosts they "invented" the Donald Trump candidacy.

Starting in early 2011, Donald Trump appeared on Fox & Friends every Monday morning for an appropriately titled segment: "Mondays With Trump." When the relationship between the reality TV star and the morning talk show came under scrutiny, upon Trump's entrance into the presidential race, the cable news network axed the segment.

I have to agree.    FOX cares more about ratings than the growth of conservatism, and Trump was and is good for ratings.

And yet if you listen to his base, Fox News is the enemy.

Trump invented Trump. A large number of voters agree with him.

AM political entertainment shows, and cable TV political entertainment shows, provided the vehicle for him.

Give him credit for using the vehicle.
