Axios reports that Newt Gingrich has written a column which tells Republicans to stop underestimating Joe Biden:
Republicans must learn to quit underestimating President Joe Biden....
The clarity of winning and losing creates a clarity of analysis about who is doing well and who isn’t.
If you apply that simple model to Biden, you realize how well he is doing by his own definition of success....
...conservatives’ hostility to the Biden administration on our terms tends to blind us to just how effective Biden has been on his terms. He has only built upon and fortified the left-wing Big Government Socialist woke culture system.
We dislike Biden so much, we pettily focus on his speaking difficulties, sometimes strange behavior, clear lapses of memory, and other personal flaws. Our aversion to him and his policies makes us underestimate him and the Democrats....
....Biden and his team executed a strategy of polarizing Americans against Donald Trump supporters.
Of course, Gingrich would never admit, or perhaps see?, his own key role in the nutty polarisation on the Right (as shown in his own language repeated here - about the "Big Government Socialist(s)" that he wants his followers to believe all Democrats are) which has led to Donald Trump, and the inability to reason with his cult supporters. And it's a bit rich that he's now suggesting that maybe people should stop saying that Biden is suffering dementia - if he hasn't suggested it himself before on Fox News (I don't know if he has, as I did find one link to an article from 2019 where he said media should stop baselessly speculating on politicians' health) he knows that it is his favourite media outlet which has repeated this endlessly during the Biden administration.
