    Jeet Heer Retweeted Newt Gingrich

    Just so we're clear: this tweet is a threat.https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/1353353474046619655 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Newt GingrichVerified account @newtgingrich
    Establishment politicians should think long and hard before turning President Trump into the American equivalent of Alexei Navalny. Navalny is Putin’s major opponent-jailed, harassed, imprisoned, poisoned. Turning President Trump into a martyr will deepen political conflict.

        Replying to @garrett_charles @HeerJeet

        It reminds me of a comment from Mark Shields on the @NewsHour years ago: “Everybody wants to get into Heaven, but nobody wants to die.” Yeah, the man convinced that exercise shortens life span would not want to do the actual work of martyrdom—just like in his Presidency...

        Not to worry Navalny actually has ethics and conscience.

        Newt Gingrich is famous for successfully using ignorance of the law as a legal defense.

        True, that's why nobody wants to turn him into a martyr. Just a defendant (as per the law), then a prisoner. He can arrange the martyr business for himself.
