Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Sunday that President-elect Donald Trump must “swing for the fences” in his first year in the White House, or else risk being sucked in by the Washington “swamp” that he has pledged to drain.
“This is a city which if you don't shove it as hard as you can while you have momentum, it will just surround you,” Gingrich said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday morning. “I mean, the swamp doesn't want to be drained. And the swamp will just suck you in if you let it. So he needs to have a very, very aggressive first year.”
Gingrich said Trump must be a “salesman” as president, loudly backing the package of proposals he will try to enact once he assumes office.
