Newt Gingrich responded to an episode involving Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden, where he called a female student a “lying dog-faced pony soldier” while campaigning in New Hampshire.
The awkward exchange took place after the student, who introduced herself as “Madison,” asked Biden, “How do you explain the performance in Iowa and why should the voters believe that you can win a national election?”
Biden replied, “That’s a good question. Number one, Iowa’s a Democratic caucus. You ever been to a caucus?” After the woman said that she has been to the Iowa caucus, Biden quickly replied, “No you haven’t. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier.”

In response to Biden’s remarks, which have since gone viral, Newt Gingrich questioned why such words were chosen to describe the young woman.
Newt tweeted: “I don’t even know what “dog faced pony soldier” means. When Biden uses it to describe a young woman isnt that pretty mean? Does anyone know what a dog faced pony solider is? Weird and getting weirder.” See Below

Here are some more highly engaged reactions to Biden’s awkward exchange in New Hampshire:
If he can’t handle a simple question from one of his own supporters, how can Joe Biden possibly take on Donald Trump one on one for six months?

Are we still pretending that Joe Biden hasn’t lost his marbles?
Do yourselves and Google a video of him from 30 years ago and compare it to him now and tell me it’s the same person! Long gone. https://t.co/FLpocHkEJv

Imagine that @realDonaldTrump rebuked a woman—when she said she had attended a political caucus—by saying she was a “lying dog faced pony soldier.” It would be MSM headlines. But @JoeBiden said it. So never mind. #maga2020.

That might have been a voice from his alternate mind, the one so exhausted by crooked dealings he can’t think straight, because it certainly can’t have been a way to court votes. #LyingDogFacedPonySoldier https://t.co/uZVhKHRuja
