WASHINGTON — President Biden recently received praise — backhanded and qualified, but praise all the same — from one of the figures least likely to offer a favorable assessment of a Democratic administration: former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
In a new column published on his website, Gingrich offered his own party a blunt warning: “Republicans must learn to quit underestimating President Joe Biden.”
It was a remarkable concession for a man who practically invented modern-day partisan combat, which allows for little concession or compromise. Gingrich engineered the impeachment of President Clinton; later, having left Congress amid ethical lapses, Gingrich assailed President Obama as a supposed “socialist” in disguise.
Yet he also believes that GOP attacks on the president have been ineffective, citing Democrats’ surprisingly good showing in last month’s elections as evidence.
“The Biden team had one of the best first term off-year elections in history,” he wrote, an assertion bolstered by recent trends in electoral politics.
