WATCH: Newt Gingrich reveals why left is ‘desperate’ to attack president over Iran

Newt Gingrich on ABC’s ‘The View’

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Thursday that members of the left are grasping for reasons to condemn President Donald Trump following U.S. military action against Iran.

Democratic leaders criticized Trump’s strikes on Iran, saying he failed to seek congressional authorization before launching the military operation. Gingrich said on “Kudlow” that people on the left are desperate to attack Trump over his military action because they panic over virtually anything he does.
