Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has asserted that a "very profound cultural civil war" is taking place within the United States. Speaking on Fox News, Gingrich argued that the deep divisions in American society are not merely political, but reflect fundamental disagreements about values and culture.
Gingrich attributed much of President Trump's support to opposition against what he termed the "Obama-Biden system." He claimed that many Americans feel alienated by the policies and direction of the previous administration. Furthermore, Gingrich suggested that the Democratic party is doubling down on what he characterized as "weird values," further widening the gap between different segments of the population.
"There is an underlying cultural civil war, and I think that's very, very profound," Gingrich stated. He expressed concern that these cultural differences are becoming increasingly entrenched, making it more difficult to find common ground and maintain national unity. The former Speaker did not elaborate on specific policy proposals to address the perceived cultural divide.
