Donald Trump added his own unique brand of fuel to the Newt Gingrich fire on Wednesday night in Cincinnati, Ohio, praising the former Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives before a capacity crowd as speculation intensified about his choice for a running mate.
Gingrich, Trump said, is as much in the dark as anyone.
'I'm not saying anything, and I'm not telling even Newt anything,' he told his audience in Cincinnati, Ohio, 'but I can tell you in one form or another, Newt Gingrich is going to be involved with our government. That I can tell you, okay?'
'We all love Newt. Newt gets it,' Trump boomed later as his fans chanted the former speaker's first name, begging the presumptive nominee to join forces with him.
'I'll tell you one thing, folks: I'm not saying it's Newt, but if it's Newt, nobody's going to be beating him in those debates. That's for sure, right? Nobody. Nobody's beating on Newt in the debate.'

Gingrich, in a sort of audition for the vice presidency, offered a sample of the hard-hitting attack language any potential Trump number-two would need on the campaign stump.
He focused both barrels on Hillary Clinton, just hours after Attorney General Loretta Lynch formally announced the former secretary of state won't be prosecuted over her classified email scandal.
He mocked Lynch for 'announcing with great surprise that she accepts the FBI director's total sellout of the American citizens.'
'Is there a single person here who believes that if you had done what Hillary Clinton had done, that you would not be prosecuted?' he asked.
About 4,000 people yelled, "No!"
Gingrich framed Clinton – a former first lady of Arkansas and the United States, U.S. senator and secretary of state, and now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee – as an elite in an age when populism is choking plutocrats of their power.
'They are once again making the case that there are two Americas,' he said of Clinton and her husband, the former president. 'There's the corrupt Washington of the old order, and there are all the rest of us.'

he Democrats, he said, were 'lying to us about a person who deliberately obstructed justice, and in any rule of law today would be facing a grand jury, not an election.'
'And one last comment: Do any of you believe it was only an accident that Hillary Clinton was on Air Force One with Barack Obama at the very moment that the FBI director was explaining that despite her obvious total guilt, she should not be taken in. I would say the fix was in.'
The 70-year-old Trump and the 73-year-old Gingrich co-hosted a brief Facebook Live chat before taking the stage.
Lasting less than a half-minute, the oddly framed backstage footage gave viewers a glimpse into how senior citizens see emerging technologies.
'This is sort of, this is magic. So you're now on Facebook I think,' Gingrich told Trump. 'Worldwide.'
'Wow, that's fantastic. That's beautiful,' he replied.
'It's the modern world,' they said, one after the other.
Trump's veepstakes took a series of twists and turns on Wednesday after two senators, Bob Corker of Tennessee and Joni Ernst of Iowa, took themselves out of the running.

Trump said in a mid-afternoon interview that his short-list still had about 10 names on it, including two military generals.
One, a campaign aide said, was retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, whom the Obama administration forced out of his post in 2014 for his outspoken warnings about Islamic jihadis.
Gingrich has been a rare constant throughout the process, popping up consistently in most veep discussions since Trump clinched the Republican nomination.
The billionaire said Wednesday night that 'he's smart, he's tough, he gets it, and he says I'm the biggest thing he's ever seen in the history of politics!'
'Nah,' he added as laughs roared from the rafters of a convention center hall. 'Newt's gonna be involved, if I can get approval from his wife. That may be tough, but that's okay.'

Not to worry. Trump won't. And Cory wouldn't.

Don King has a better shot as Trunp’s VP.
