I think it could be equally argued that they ended the segment and moved on because there was silence and no one was talking. The guests wanted absolutely no part in discussing Soros so they were just dead silence.

Yeah the host lady did nothing wrong. She didn’t say anything about Soros and just tried to keep the shoe going. She clearly was planning on moving on after that because she mentioned that it was the last word before Gingrich even started to speak.

It was the other two ladies that were weirdly freaking out about Soros.

That was exactly my sense of it too. If I was the black lady I probably would have just froze and moved on because of the weird awkwardness of those white ladies. I don't think Newts mic was cut off, he was just stunned by how vehement the resistance was to even mentioning the name of the dark lord.

I think Newt asked "So it's verboten?" And was done talking.. then nobody else talked.

"Verboten" = German for "forbidden". Commonly used term during the Third Reich. Gingrich chose that word on purpose.

"So it's verboten?"

That was such an awesome response.

Or maybe "Voldeboten"? I think Harris is looking a little anorexic, too.

Watch again. Harris shut him up. Misspoke. Melissa Francis and Marie barf Harf spoke out. Sorry

How? I just see her sitting there silently while everyone else talks. In fact she seemed to immediately stop talking any time she thought she heard Newt say something. She only says she’s going to move on when there are like 3 full seconds of no one talking.

She was the one who said "we don't need to bring soros into this " didnt she?

Edit-my mistake she started talking and then someone off screen said that

It speaks volumes that the liberal had to steal the last word knowing the host was trying to move on.

Melissa Francis is usually ok, but wanted some Brownie points. Fox isnt to blame for the akwardness it was the final point.

Basically. Newt Gingrich is more based than we thought and Marie Harff will jump in rudely to try to save face for the Democrats.

Newt has always been based. He would spit fire back when he was speaker and he helped make the GOP contenders again. He shares a lot of qualities with Trump. If he was the Republican nominee in 2012 we probably would have never had to see Obama for a second term.

yes he is I just wanted him to tell Francis some straight up numbers on Soros Donations or just take charge of the conversation by saying do you have any information to say that Soros didnt donate to these prosecuters?

What about that point isnt relevant to you Francis/Harff?

Uh no, one of them literally said "he didn't" , and the 2nd backed her up saying she agreed and diddnt want to bring him into it. What were you watching? The host wasnt at fault but the 2 guests werent just awkwardly silent.

I watched the same thing. The guest got very defensive as soon as he mentioned Soros and seemed to not want to discuss it at all. They then continued to not challenge Newt by not saying anything at all. They literally sat there and didn't say anything until the host said they are moving on.

I believe they muted the guests
