Gingrich: ‘Trump Will Be Nominee,’ GOP Should Cancel Future Debates
Pam Key 28 Sep 2023
Fox News contributor and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Thursday on Fox News Channel’s “The Ingraham Angle” that former President Donald Trump will be the 2024 Republican presidential nominee.
Gingrich said, “I suspect the money is there, but the votes aren’t. I’m a big fan of Glenn Youngkin. I think he’s doing a great job as governor. I think in 2028, he could be a very impressive, maybe even frontrunner for president, but not this time. Not this year.”
He continued, “I was talking to our mutual friend, the pollster Matt Towery this afternoon, and Matt said to me, based on what he saw last night, this race is over, Donald Trump will be the nominee, they might as well quit having the various debates because they don’t work, they’re not helping anybody, and I think that’s where we are. I think Trump will be the nominee and the question now for everybody is do you want to see Joe Biden reelected or do you want to help Donald Trump? There’s no middle ground here, I don’t think.”
Gingrich added, “I think the Republican National Committee should cancel the future debates and say, ‘Look, we recognize the objective fact that Trump will be the nominee. We want to work with him.”
He concluded, “In some of these races, some of these polls, Trump is like 43 points ahead of the next person, 43 points. He’s gonna be the nominee.”

Exactly.
Maj. Bill Martin:
Newt apparently believes the Republican primary should be decided by pollsters, not by voters. The election is decided before a single vote is cast.
Lovely.
Why are people like Newt against these debates? What harm do they do? I mean, the entire basis of his point is that the debates aren't accomplishing anything so...what's the harm?
Personally, I'd prefer to remind voters as much as possible that not every Republican belives Trump should be the nominee.
It's also foolish to dismiss the possibility that legal or other issues could change the dynamic of the GOP primary.

If Trump is currently President (like he was in 2020), there should be no debates and he should be the nominee. However, since he isn't the President he is applying for the job again.
It shouldn't be a coronation. Trump and his MAGA minions are acting like Hillary Clinton in 2008. You know the person that Trump promised to lock up.
