An 'enormous danger': Newt Gingrich slams second Trump impeachment effort

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich decried efforts in Congress to impeach President Trump a second time as an “enormous danger.”

“What I object to is the idea that the U.S. Congress, whether Democrat or Republican, is going to dictate to the American people who they’re allowed to vote for. This idea that they’re somehow going to make it illegal for Trump to run, that says they think he’s popular that he could win,” Gingrich said on Fox Business’s Mornings with Maria on Wednesday, noting that conviction in the Senate would bar Trump from holding elected office again. “Now, by what right does [House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi or any member of Congress dictate to the American people who is allowed to run?”
