Newt Gingrich has a message to Republicans: It doesn’t matter if you like it or not President Biden is victoriousIt is time to stop “underestimating” him.
Former House Speaker shared his thoughts about the midterm elections of 2022 in a blog post from his websiteThis week. Looking back at the disappointing GOP performance – Republicans failed to win the Senate and have a slim 222-seat majority in the House – Gingrich acknowledged that Biden “had one of the best first term off-year elections in history” and said the Democrats’ victories should provide “clarity” about what’s working and what isn’t for Republicans.
“Like many Americans, I don’t like the job he does. As with most conservatives and Republicans I strongly oppose his policies. They clearly weaken America and strengthen our enemies. Again, I, like most Americans, oppose them The woke PoliciesGingrich wrote that they are undermining, threatening to destroy, popular, unique, American culture.”
“However,” he added, “conservatives’ hostility to the Biden administration on our terms tends to blind us to just how effective Biden has been on his terms. He has only enriched and consolidated the left-wing Big Government Sociist woke culture system.”

DEMOCRATS VOTE TO ADOPT BIDEN’S SHAKEUP TO 2024 PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY CALENDAR
Gingrich compared Biden favorably to Presidents Dwight Eisenhower (and Ronald Reagan), two highly successful Republicans who he stated “both prefer to be underestimated.”
He noted that Biden had been a “major force” for five decades in public service. After becoming a vice president for two terms, he campaigned from his “basement” and won the 2020 election. The height of the coronavirus epidemic.
“The Biden team took an amazingly narrow four-vote majority in the U.S. House and a 50-50 tie in the Senate and turned it into trillions of dollars in spending – and a series of radical bills,” Gingrich continued. “The latest bill regarding sexual rights overriding any other rights was strongly opposed by nearly every conservative even though it passed with Republican support.”

Gingrich wrote, “Despite the terrible economic, criminal, and border problems (which led many analysts including myself to believe the GOP would win big gains in November), Biden’s team executed a strategy that polarized Americans against Donald Trump supporters.” “They turned Jan. 6 into a crisis which eclipsed the Left’s previous summer of fire, chaos, and destruction. They also exaggerated their threat to abortion rights. And it worked.”

His conclusion was that many Republicans fail to recognize or comprehend that the party’s approach towards voters has failed.
“We need to rethink from the ground up how we are going to Defeat Big Government Socialism – including almost inevitable second-time Democrat Presidential Nominee Biden,” Gingrich wrote.
