POPSThe Newt to Meet With The Donald First, it may help him appeal even more to the Tea Party wing of the GOP that Gingrich has aggressively courted. Second, Trump’s endorsement would invite scorn and ridicule from the mainstream media, which would set Gingrich up as an antagonist against an institution, the mainstream press, that rank and file conservative voters tend to despise. Gingrich’s comeback can be traced back to when he started pugnaciously snarling at questions posed by members of the elite media and a Trump endorsement would give Gingrich another opportunity to jostle and spar with the media, something Gingrich does with relish and better than anyone next to Sarah Palin. And third, a Trump endorsement of Gingrich would almost surely ensure that should Gingrich win the nomination, Trump would not run as an independent candidate in the general election, something Trump and his advisers have repeatedly threatened he would do if Trump was not satisfied with the Republican nominee.
