NEWT:

I think there are left wing Democrats that are generally unhappy that he is not more liberal. And then there are normal Democrats who are just terrified that the election results are going to be so bad this fall that it's going to disseminate their party. We just did a survey at the American majority project and 87% of the country wants to return to an America that works. And they didn't say liberal or conservative. They just mean you can afford to buy gasoline. You can, you know, find infant formula. You can have a border that's controlled. You can walk a street without worrying about car jackings, murders, robberies, or rapes. I think that Biden has a real problem. Because none of the policies is he following are going to create an America that works. And as it gets worse, people are going to become even more unhappy with the democratic party in general and with President Biden in particular.

NEWT:

Well, I think Biden's biggest problem is things like 5 or 6 or $7 a gallon gasoline. I think in some parts of California over $8 a gallon. Things like, you know, 15,000 people in a caravan. That's a World War II infantry division coming north to cross the American border illegally against a government so weak and so incompetent that you can't figure out in advance how to stop them. I think people are worried, as we just saw in the San Francisco recall where 60% voted to recall a communist district attorney who was literal a communist who had been releasing prisoners. So, you have all these real policy questions. You just had a conversation about homeschooling vs. what's happening in our schools. I think every time you turn around, Americans find things aren't working. And I don't see any likelihood that Biden is going to change the way that solves any of these problems.

NEWT:

Look vacuums attract candidates. Who could have sat there at this stage, in 2014 and told you Donald Trump was going to run and win? I mean, it was inconceivable. Nobody would have said it. The Democrats have lots of governors. They have lots of senators. They have ambitious people. Who are, you know, Hollywood stars, billionaire entrepreneurs. Somebody will emerge. The vacuum attracts somebody. The problem they have got is if they emerge as a left wing big government socialist candidate, they are just going to lose. We have crossed a watershed where people have been reminded for the first time since Jimmy Carter that this stuff doesn't work. And that's why it's such an enormous burden for the Democrats.

NEWT:

There are no moderate Democrats.
