Former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Wednesday said Donald Trump’s hiring of
Breitbart’s Stephen Bannon as CEO and his decision to promote Kellyanne Conway
to campaign manager will strengthen his campaign.
“Well,
I think they’re very good for Trump because it strengthens it,” said Gingrich
on Fox News Radio’s The John Gibson Show. “In many ways Paul Manafort
has been a transitional who has brought the campaign to a much more
professional, much more national capability. But the campaign had to continue
growing. Trying to run in 50 states, deal with the national media, take on the
Clinton machine. That’s a lot.”
“So I
think that bringing in these two people, Steve Bannon is a tremendous manager,”
continued Gingrich. “He is a great fighter in the conservative tradition. He at
Breitbart and elsewhere has really made an impact and he understands the news
cycle and how to fight the left. Kellyanne Conway has been just a great
pollster, I’ve worked with her for many years. She will bring a, I think again,
a very aggressive tough-minded approach, fact-based policy approach to it. I
think these are both terrific choices and I’m delighted that he’s bringing them
in.”
