Newt Gingrich slammed Cory Booker’s marathon Senate speech as “just plain weird,” accusing the Democrat of abandoning his moderate roots for radical theatrics. Gingrich called out Booker’s wild-eyed performance, claiming it showed how unhinged the Democratic Party has become under far-left pressure. He warned that Democrats are spiraling into chaos, splitting between radical activists and leaders too weak to stand up to them.
Booker’s 25-hour filibuster broke records but drew mockery for flip-flopping on the same Senate rules he once praised. Just three years ago, Booker blasted the filibuster as an “abuse of power” – now he’s using it to block Republican efforts to cut wasteful spending. Even former Democrat Kyrsten Sinema trolled Booker, joking that his stunt proved the filibuster isn’t the “Jim Crow relic” liberals claim.
Gingrich predicted a full-blown civil war within the Democratic Party as working-class voters reject its extreme agenda. He pointed to shocking midterm losses in Florida, where Democrats outspent Republicans eight-to-one but still lost. The GOP’s focus on jobs, border security, and reining in big government is resonating while Democrats push divisive identity politics.
President Trump’s bold economic plan is exposing Democratic failures, Gingrich argued. Trump’s tariffs are fighting back against foreign countries exploiting American workers, reviving domestic manufacturing. His tax cuts let hardworking families keep more of their money instead of funding Biden-era bureaucratic bloat.
Meanwhile, Trump’s “Project 2025” is already delivering results by slashing regulations choking small businesses. The plan’s pro-growth policies contrast sharply with Democratic schemes to raise taxes and expand welfare programs that trap people in poverty. Republicans are proving that fiscal responsibility creates prosperity, not big-government handouts.
Democrats responded to Trump’s success with hysterical protests and baseless claims of “authoritarianism.” But Americans see through the smears – 82% believe the political system is corrupt after years of Democrat control. Voters are tired of chaotic riots, open borders, and schools pushing radical gender ideology instead of reading and math.
Gingrich concluded that Democrats have no positive vision beyond resisting Trump. Their obsession with impeachment stunts and coddling criminals has left cities drowning in violence and drugs. While Republicans unite around securing the border and energy independence, Democrats offer only conspiracy theories and attacks on Supreme Court justices.
The choice in 2026 is clear – steady Republican leadership rebuilding American greatness or Democrat chaos destroying it. Gingrich urged conservatives to keep exposing left-wing lies and delivering results for forgotten families. With Trump’s policies lifting all boats, the tide is turning against the radical left’s un-American agenda.
