Newt Gingrich Endorses Trump: I’m Open To Being VP

Via Politico:

Newt Gingrich endorsed Donald Trump on Wednesday night while not explicitly ruling out the notion that he could join the Manhattan businessman’s ticket in the fall.

In an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, the former House speaker said: “I endorse Donald Trump. I am going to work very hard for the nominee.”

Gingrich said he had not expressed support for the presumptive Republican nominee previously because he was close to other presidential contenders.

“John Kasich is a great personal friend of mine, Ted Cruz ran a great campaign,” the former 2012 presidential candidate said. “I tried to be an objective observer.”

For his part, Gingrich would not entirely rule out being Trump’s running mate. “Well, I would certainly talk about it, he told Hannity. “I wouldn’t turn it down automatically.”

If Gingrich becomes Trump’s VP, the pro-family party will be led by men who have had six wives between them. Yikes. https://t.co/8DozaBRFN6
