Speaker Newt Gingrich launches a bold five-part series on how Republicans can win a historic victory in November 2026. In this opening solo episode, Newt argues that the coming election is not a referendum on the present — it's an argument about the future. Drawing on his famous 2016 "two parallel universes" exchange with Megyn Kelly, he explains how winning campaigns identify what's moving beneath the surface of public polling and stick to it with discipline. He walks through four historic examples — his own 1978 comeback, the 1988 Bush campaign, the 1994 Contract with America, and the rise of MAGA — to extract the single lesson each shares: find the true, provable contrast and never let up. Then he lays out four building blocks he believes can define the choice in 2026 and help Republicans build a lasting American majority.
