In the final 36 hours of the vice presidential guessing game, a top contender appeared on national television to argue why his main competitor was better.
"I don't know if I should say this, but it's so much fun that I'm going to," Newt Gingrich, one of Donald Trump's finalists, said on "Hannity" on Fox News.
After describing the bigger-than-life seeming personalities of Trump and himself as being like "pirates," Gingrich asked: "Do you really want a two-pirate ticket?"....

Sounded to me that he was comparing himself to Pence.  I took the comment as he wanted Trump to choose which pirate being that they were different pirates.  As pirates go you know.  Aye Matie!

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Yeah but that would require a conservative nominee to start with.

Newtie is Mr Outsider.  :silly:

When Newt Gingrich first ran for office in 1974, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz were three years old. Ben Sasse was 2. Tom Cotton wasn’t born.
