Fox News Drops Newt Gingrich Due to ‘Intense Media Speculation’ About Trump’s VP Pick

We’ve seen Newt Gingrich emerge as a Trump VP frontrunner, we’ve heard rumors he may reject such a position, which is saying something for a guy as morally profligate as Newt Gingrich.

All that’s left is to sit back and munch popcorn as we wait, for the next tweet is now in Donald Trump’s very small hands.
