“The United States is losing the war with radical Islamists,” Newt Gingrich told a group of conservatives at the Iowa Freedom Summit in Des Moines.
And while Gingrich skewered President Obama and his foreign policy, he said part of the problem resides with Republicans as well. “We have an elite, frankly in both parties, unwilling to tell the truth.”
While many of the speakers at the Iowa event suggested they’d be running for president, Gingrich made no suggestion himself (and has previously said he won’t run again in 2016).
