‘They Have A Real Problem’: Gingrich Reveals Troubling Harris VP Pick

On Thursday evening, former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich boldly stated that Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro is the one running mate option that could potentially derail Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign.

Gingrich was interviewed on “The Ingraham Angle” to talk about Harris gaining enough delegates to be the Democratic Party’s leading candidate for the new presumptive presidential nominee following President Joe Biden’s announcement that he would not be running for re-election on Sunday. In his conversation with Fox News host Laura Ingraham, Gingrich addressed the possible candidates for Harris’s running mate and was critical of the decision to consider Shapiro.

“Well look, they have a big problem. I think, by the way, this is why, in the end, Harris will not be able to pick Governor Shapiro of Pennsylvania,” Gingrich said. “I think to walk into that convention with a Jewish governor as her vice presidential candidate would cause such a level of tension in places like Michigan that it would just be a wild scene. Sort of resemble Union Station. They have a real problem.”

“The problem is more and more of their party’s anti-Semitic, more and more of their party sides with terrorism. More and more of their party is deeply hostile, not just to Israel, they are deeply hostile to the United States,” Gingrich said.

During Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress on Wednesday, almost half of the Democratic members chose not to attend the his speech. One of them, Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, who is of Palestinian descent, made her presence felt during the speech, as she was observed holding a sign that said “War Criminal.”

“And I think this is an underlying split in their party, which will be interesting to see how they try to write a platform compared to what the Republicans achieved in Milwaukee,” Gingrich continued. “Because how do they bring their radical left wing and what’s left of the old pro-Israel wing? How do they get something on that into the platform? I think they’ll have a very hard time.”
