Newt Gingrich on Fox News Channel's The Ingraham Angle | February 10, 2021

NEWT:

Of course. Look, Donald Trump is a mortal threat to the entire world of the left. He is such a deep threat that anything they do to stop him is by definition legitimate. So long before he was elected there were articles about impeaching him. The day of his election, the Washington Post had an article about impeaching him. The day after you had a huge crowd of the left wingers in front of the capitol and you had Madonna saying she dreamed of the white house being destroyed with the Trump family in it. This has been going on for five years now and we are just seeing more of the same thing. The very fact you showed Swalwell, who was congressman with a multiyear relationship with a Chinese communist spy and who is serving on the House intelligence committee, and he is part of this impeachment process? This whole thing is a tragic, pathetic joke, which undermines the United States. And the truth is this is not a trial. All this lawyer talk is baloney. This is a mock trial where you have the party of Hollywood put together a series of films designed to make us so upset. We have to have someone to be upset at and they are saying Donald Trump is the right person. I mean you could make a much better case that Pelosi and Schumer and others deserve to be the people on trial not Donald Trump.

NEWT:

Look Hillary Clinton and the left didn't accept Trump for 20 minutes. Ever. This is a guy who has had to fight every single day. It is going to go on like this. Now the good news for people who are sick and tired of the left is Scott Rasmussen just released a poll where 72% of the American people think the elites despise them and have contempt for them. 72%. So there is a base out there watching all of this go on. So I think in the long run it will isolate and shrink the woke Democratic party into a tiny enclave because they won't be able to function.
