Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said the temporary hold on two articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump is “foolish” and “absurd.”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other Democrats have implied that they might withhold the impeachment articles from the Senate, suggesting that the ensuing trial won’t be fair.
