‘There’s a lot at stake’: Newt Gingrich predicts disaster if GOP loses House to Democrats in 2026 elections
February 13, 2025 | Mariane Angela
Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich told Fox Business host Larry Kudlow Thursday that “there’s a lot at stake” if the Republicans lose the House in the 2026 midterm elections to the Democrats.
In an appearance on “Kudlow,” Gingrich predicted a bleak scenario for the Republican Party if they fail to retain control of the House in the 2026 elections. Gingrich said there’s a need for a robust economic agenda to secure a Republican victory and prevent potential legislative setbacks under a Democrat-led House.
“Almost guarantee losing the Republican House next year and ruining the last two years of President Trump’s term with Hakeem Jeffries playing the Nancy Pelosi role, investigations, blocking programs, potential impeachments,” Gingrich said. “I mean, there’s a lot at stake here, and it frankly mystifies me as to how House and Senate Republicans can’t understand you’ve got to plan back from victory.”
Gingrich said it’s necessary to have a strong economy and a legislative agenda focused on tax cuts, deregulation, and pro-energy affordability measures to be enacted no later than May or June.
