    Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich believes the criminal cases brought against former President Donald Trump have improved his chances of winning the 2024 Republican nomination and the general election against President Joe Biden.

    During an interview on Fox News's "Life, Liberty & Levin," Gingrich said that he believes the former president has seen boosts in support after indictments - of which Trump is now facing four - because voters see him as going "head-on" against a "corrupt, authoritarian system."

    "I think many people who may or may not like Trump's personality, but they look at this and they think, 'Here are my choices. I'm going to side with a totally corrupt administration or I'm going to side with the guy who has the guts to stand there and take the beating and keep coming," Gingrich told host Mark Levin.

    Gingrich, who served as House Speaker from 1995 to 1999, claimed that Trump has seen a boost in support from black males because of his numerous indictments. Black males "identify" with Trump because they see the system that has "harrass[ed]" him, according to Gingrich.

    "The reason is simple: They feel that the police have harassed them," Gingrich told Levin. "They're now watching the government harass Trump. They actually identify with what he's going through."

    As for Trump's wider coalition of supporters, Gingrich called the former president the "leader of a movement" against "an establishment that is totally corrupt, destroying anything that gets in its way."

    Gingrich also speculated that Trump would have avoided all criminal cases brought against him if he had "retired" after the 2020 election.

    In the end, the indictments might catapult Trump not only to the Republican nomination but also back to the White House, according to Gingrich.

    "I think that the country is in fact going to nominate Trump, and I think Trump has a very high likelihood of winning the general election," Gingrich argued.

    Last week, Trump - the 2024 GOP primary frontrunner - was arrested and booked in the Fulton County Jail before he was released on a $200,000 bond over charges relating to his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. It was the fourth indictment brought against the former president, who has accused Biden, the Department of Justice, and prosecutors of targeting him in a "witch hunt."

Was it a judicious ploy for Joe Biden's FBI to execute the unprecedented raid of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate?
  Yes; the Cheneys despise this former Republican president, and for good reason ... so they say.
  No; never has a former president been treated with this level of vindictive abuse by those temporarily in power.
  Who cares? It's Trump.

In light of continued developments, primarily since 2008, there exists in these United States a Legal System which operates on a proved Two Tiered approach to justice rendered, which primarily benefits Democratic Elites and Woke Ideological Virtue Signalers, representing their co-dependent wards, to the expressed exclusion of normal hardworking American citizens: What is your suggestion in remedying this widespread injustice and, if not corrected, its existential outcome for our Constitutional Republic?
  Complete overhaul of the Department of Justice and their enforcers - the FBI - to reflect a far more honest justice system to keep patriots remaining calm.
  Disband the FBI, and request that congress investigate all unethical and non patriotic practices to partially right the wrongs of a distrusted and politically weaponized "Department of Justice."
  Continue with the current system since the two tiered justice system has been so remarkably beneficial to Democratic Socialist political hegemony; chronic distrust in institutions notwithstanding.

Considering that the 2024 Presidential Election has fully begun, and the Biden Administration has consequently fully weaponized the Biden DOJ /FBI to attack all political opponents under the penalty of felonious judgement for many of the same alleged crimes, or worse, committed by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden himself: Are you comfortable with this level of overt corruption within the Executive Branch?
  Yes; if Democratic Socialists are to complete the remaking of this "Democracy," the End will Always Justify the Means.
  No; in a Constitutional Republic, the Rule of Law is paramount, which means the law MUST be administered evenly
  Who cares; I am just so ambivalent to all this grown-up stuff.

After nearly 8 months of the United States House of Representatives' Oversight Committee hearings, House Speaker Mike Johnson is pursuing an Impeachment Inquiry into the strong allegations of Bribery, Influence Peddling, Money laundering and possible Treason regarding the Biden Family Shell Corporations' business dealings with foreign nations that are adversarial to our survival: Is it prudent and wise for the Republican controlled U.S. House to investigate this Democratic Socialist President?
  No, Democratics should never be investigated because they are so superior to their Republican counterparts, and care so much more.
  Yes, in a Constitutional Republic, bound by the Rule of Law, no one is above the law, and that law must be applied evenly.
  Not sure ... Now, what got all this started?
