Gingrich says he does not want to be Trump's veep
By Ben Smith • 5/1/16 11:35 AM


Former House Speaker and presidential candidate Newt Gingrich is a "no" for Donald Trump's vice-presidential pick.

Gingrich compared being picked as Trump's vice president to "Disney World."

"I don't want to be asked," Gingrich told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo.

When asked about Cruz's selection of Carly Fiorina and how should Trump respond, Gingrich blasted the decision, calling it premature.

Gingrich said focusing on the delegates should be Trump's top concern. His VP pick should come after the nomination, Gingrich said, in another dig at Cruz.

Gingrich would not say who he thought Trump should pick.

Looks like it may come down to a choice between Chris Christie or Sarah Palin.    :silly:

I think Newt's enjoyin' his retirement too much to really be bothered with the work of running. Perhaps even the responsibility of winning...

I think Gingrich is onto something, because honestly, Trump's entire campaign is worse than Disney World (pacem Mr. Disney).

Trump never asked Newt to be his veep and never will.

Gingrich is a Conservative so no chance, I think he will choose Bernie to shore up his support in the Blue States......

It's probably too much to hope for that we could exit a contested convention with Gingrinch instead of Trump, Cruz, or Kasich.
