Gingrich Calls on Conservatives to Focus on 'Black Success,' Not 'White Guilt'

How will historians look back at 2020? "I think it's a decisive moment and I don't think we know yet how it's going to work out," says former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. "Once you start tearing down statues, somebody hates the next statue, the statue after that," adds Gingrich, author of " Trump and the American Future: Solving the Great Problems of Our Time ." "And then you end up with a statue that was built by freed slaves as a tribute to the man who freed them, Abraham Lincoln, is now inadequate, according to people who don't have a clue what the Civil War was like, what Lincoln did, or how gigantic the change was. So you basically have barbarians." We also cover these stories: Seattle police are disbanding the CHOP zone.
