There are times when words do not do complete justice to a moment. Tuesday night’s Newt Gingrich-Megyn Kelly showdown is one of those times, which is why we’ve included the clip above of its final moments. (Here’s the full interview, from the top.)

I particularly liked the part where Newt GINGRICH says: “And, therefore, we’re going to send Bill Clinton back to the East Wing, because after all, you are worried about sexual predators.”


Zing!

I would not call that a great moment for Newt, but that's the affect of Trumpland on the human psyche, become unhinged and scream at people incoherently.

The women have no proof of anything. Yes, we can reject the stories of these women when they are coming out with these stories right before votes are cast and when there is zero evidence for anything they are saying.

I have never seen supporters take on the personality of the candidate like the way Trump supporters do

What reason do I have to listen to these women? Have they presented any evidence to support their case? Why should I listen to women that appear to be coming up with stories to assassinate the character of a candidate?

If however they have evidence then I'm all ears, but so far they have nothing and thus I have no reason to pay them any mind.

Ya know, Newt complaining about sexual misconduct is like... is like Genghis Kahn complaining about violence.

Invariably, the victims are accused of victimizing the predator. Since when is their testamony as victims not evidence of anything. You realize, don't you, that eye witness testimony IS considered evidence?

What a sick form of misogyny is the right wing denial machine. I hope that if your wife or daughter is assaulted, she gets treated with greater respect than YOU demonstrate.

Even knowing what Trump has admitted, you can't believe it's true. What a shame Trump's supporters value winning over winning with a qualified candidate.

What eye witness testimony works in their favor? The only eye witness story that I'm aware of goes against the story of the first woman that made a claim against Trump.

My favorite part was where he accused someone else of being obsessed with sex, right before ranting about Bill Clinton.



You have to wonder how the strategizing went on this:

TRUMP: Hey guys, I'm not doing well with winning back Republican-leaning women.

GINGRICH: I'll go yell at Megyn Kelly.

SCAVINO: And then I'll threaten her on Twitter!

TRUMP: I hire the best people.

I think the Cosby case and the Trump case are similar in that women agree with you when they think they'll be the lone complainer. They fear nobody will believe them when their only evidence is their testimony. But, when others come forward, they feel secure enough in their chances of being believed to actually say what happened to them.

I don't think for a minute that in either the Cosby or Trump pattern of behavior, that all of those women are lying. Furthermore, for Gingrich to continuously imply that Trump is simply a predator no different than Bill Clinton is to indict Trump as being as bad as he claims Bill Clinton is. If the best he can do in beating up Hillary is to say that she tolerates her own predator and, therefore, should remain neutral to Trumps crimes or face charges of hypocrisy, we're going to have our first female president. She shouldn't have to run against her husband's past while Trump's fresh idiocy still stinks up the ballot box.
