Discussion: Newt Gingrich Calls For 'Independent' Investigator In Trump-Russia Probe

Trump doesn’t want an independent prosecutor because his golden showers video will show that he has a tiny penis.

GINGRICHIAN TRANSLATION: “This may help ease out Trump, who never offered me a job concurrent with my self-image, and so a Pres. Pence will better recognize my inherent perfect genius and give me some real administrative power.”

Maybe Donald could call one of those investigators looking for a birth certificate in Hawaii to do it.

I hate Newt but at least he said it on Fixed News. Maybe a few wackos will come to their senses and turn on Orange Hitler.

If Trump gets to choose the “independent prosecutor”, I’m not interested. Has to be truly independent.

Doesn’t make sense that the person being investigated gets to choose the investigator, especially with Trump involved.

“Independent Investigator” sounds like something the GOP base would like, too, doesn’t it? It’s easy to sell “Independent” things to the wingers, even if they don’t understand the difference between an Independent Investigator and Inspector Gadget. This will happen.

And if you call it a Special Prosecutor, Trump will want 5 or 6 of them. He loves being special.

No one who considers Michael Mukasey to be “independent” should be listened to.

Especially when it’s Ole Newtie.

I think this is wrong. Newt, in his usual too clever by half way, isn’t calling for an investigation at all. From this story at least, it sounds like he wants Trump to appoint some kind of special “Russia czar” if you will, to co-ordinate the administration’s messaging, rather than do any digging themselves.

“Independent” here means “a reputation as a straight-shooter who plays it down the middle, respected by all sides.” See Comey, James.

Newt revealed his insincerity when he invoked St. Ronnie, whose administration was a disaster.

Newt Gingrich is an elder statesman of GOP dicks, and has been all but forgotten by this new group of dicks running the white house, and Newt ain’t none too happy about it.

“Gingrich said Tuesday that President Donald Trump should choose an ‘independent person’ to investigate allegations that his aides were in contact with Russian officials before the election.”

He continued, “Perhaps one of his children.”

This sounds very reasonable in principal from an organizational perspective, but there is a major flaw in this reasoning. They can’t choose someone who will refuse to publicly lie for them, so that excludes anyone who would have any credibility. And probably anyone not currently employed by Breitbart.

And just another lying flack really doesn’t solve any problems.

He got passed over for a job, and is left to his own device for gifting. His prior audience/targets all slid away into Trump’s base.
