On Sunday's 'Meet The Press' former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said that no matter who wins, we are in for a "long, difficult couple of years."



"If Hillary is elected, the criminal investigations will be endless, and if Trump is elected, it will just be like Madison, Wisconsin with Scott Walker. The opposition of the government employee unions will be so hostile and so direct and so immediate, there will be a continuing fight over who controls the country," said Gingrich, a Trump supporter.



"I think that we are in for a long, difficult couple of years, maybe a decade or more, because the gap between those of us who are deeply offended by the dishonesty and the corruption and the total lack of honesty in the Clinton Team."



About the 'NeverTrump' Republicans, he said:



"The truth is, Donald Trump represented an outside grassroots populism that was furious at the Republican leadership,” Gingrich said. “When this campaign began, 63 percent of all Republicans said they did not like their leadership in Washington. And those are the people who nominated Trump. Well, it turns out some of the folks in Washington didn’t particularly like having what is in effect an outsider populist hostile takeover of the party. I get that.”



“And some of them would rather have Hillary Clinton win and have a left-wing Supreme Court and have the corruption continue rather than elect Donald Trump,” he continued. “I get that. The question for Trump is, can he arouse enough voters to overcome these? My guess is he can. I think we’re going to be shocked how relatively few people there are who care about the never Trumpers.”
