Newt Gingrich tweeted out a video of himself today declaring that he had made a boo-boo and was wrong about Trump not wanting to ‘drain the swamp’ any longer:
I goofed. Draining the swamp is in, @realDonaldTrump is going to do it, and the alligators should be worried. #DTS https://t.co/nCHs61gpve pic.twitter.com/OCO7eaSKvk

What is he 12 years old? A boo-boo? Ugh.
Indeed, Trump himself tweeted this out about 20 minutes before Newt’s apologetic video:
Someone incorrectly stated that the phrase "DRAIN THE SWAMP" was no longer being used by me. Actually, we will always be trying to DTS.

Well I guess we all know who ‘someone’ is in this tweet!
What’s weird is that Lewandowski basically came out this morning and backed up Newt’s claim by suggesting ‘drain the swamp’ was now at the bottom of the list:
Well whatever.
Trump made Newt get down on one knee and kiss the ring and I guess that’s the real lesson here.
Exit Question: Is Newt now the new Ben Carson?
