I think Donald Trump is very, very cautious about nuclear weapons, and he's seriously concerned. And this might be one of the reasons he wants to deal with Putin carefully, because he's aware of how many nuclear weapons Putin has, and that Russian doctrine is much more open about using nuclear weapons than is American doctrine.

Newt Gingrich

Newt Gingrich
Change is healthy and useful. It has to be fought for most of the time. It's not inevitable. It takes real leadership and real effort. But I think it's really important not to take yourself too seriously. Dwight Eisenhower used to have a rule that you should always take your job seriously but not yourself.

We have to rethink, how do we get a complete 360-degree understanding of the patient?
Newt Gingrich
Surely the President can agree with us, that theft from government is not good. I know it's bold. It's out on the edge. I know from a Chicago-Springfield background it's hard to fully grasp that honesty could be part of government.

I'm against ObamaCare, which is imposing radical change, and I would be against a conservative imposing radical change....

I don't think imposing radical change from the right or the left is a very good way for a free society to operate.
