New Gingrich is razzing Hillary Clinton.
"Bernie Sanders is not yet leaving the Democratic race for president because of the ongoing FBI investigation into the private server Hillary Clinton used for official business as secretary of state, Newt Gingrich suggested Friday."
"First of all, if I were Bernie and I think this is what he’s doing, why should he drop out before the FBI drops out?" Gingrich remarked on "Fox & Friends."
He added, "As long as the FBI is in the game he might as well stay around at least until the convention."

Nice try, Newt. Bernie is not really still running. He's winding down.
"Sanders, for his part, on Thursday indicated a willingness to work with Clinton to defeat Donald Trump in the general election while stopping short of dropping out before Tuesday's primary in the District of Columbia, the final event on the Democratic calendar."

"But, more importantly, who is Gingrich kidding? All the worries over Dem unity faded in one day after Obama's chat with Bernie. "
"Meanwhile, Mitch McConnell wants Trump to use a script-as he doesn't know what he's talking about."
The GOP position on Trump is:
1. Trump is not qualified-which is why McConnell wants him to read a script.
2. What he is being saying is racist
3. Though he's not racist
4. He has no respect for separation of powers and an independent judiciary
5. But vote Trump
6. He is the man to make the next 3 to 4 Supreme Court Justice picks
Mitch McConnell is actually considering unendorsing Trump.

In other words, the GOP is a clown show being led by the clown prince of clowns.
This fact is underscored by Gingrich himself being seen now as some sort of elder statesman in the GOP.
Newt was run out of politics on a rail 18 years ago. That he still seems to have some 'gravitas' in the party underscores that the GOP is a clown show.
As Lawrence O'Donnell pointed out last night, the Dems' have a murderer's row lineup of endorsers and surrogates for Hillary.
The President first and foremost. VP Biden, Elizabeth Warren. Bill Clinton, and lots of other Democratic leaders in Congress and across the country.
Yesterday Biden and Warren had this very deft, coordinated attack, a one two punch as they both attacked Trump and then endorsed Hillary.

Meanwhile who wants to be a Trump surrogate?
"Donald Trump has been the presumptive Republican nominee for 37 days."
"It is not going well."
"His bundlers are struggling to raise money. His field organization is a joke; his communications shop is massively outgunned. His aides are squabbling and leaking to the press. Top Republicans are denouncing him daily on national TV. And the latest big national poll — taken after he began attacking a federal judge for being “Mexican” — suggests that his early mistakes are already doing damage."
"Meanwhile, Democrats are rallying behind his all-but-certain rival, Hillary Clinton. On Wednesday and Thursday, her campaign orchestrated a dazzling media blitz, booking interviews with 12 news organizations and choreographing the rollout of major endorsements while gently nudging aside Bernie Sanders."
"Trump responded with a few tweets."
"When Clinton announced her endorsement from President Barack Obama on Thursday afternoon, Trump fired off a relatively tepid message: "Obama just endorsed Crooked Hillary. He wants four more years of Obama—but nobody else does!"
Clinton's team responded within minutes: "Delete your account." A few hours later, Trump offered his rejoinder: "How long did it take your staff of 823 people to think that up--and where are your 33,000 emails that you deleted?" Trump has bristled at comparisons between his staff size and that of Clinton's, using it as another point to argue that his spartan team has been more efficient and lower-cost, suggesting that he would do less with more as president.
