newt gingrich can't identifier smartphone so funny uh... newt gingrich
put out and this is of course moon colony enthusiasts newt gingrich was
compared himself to parekh lease moses and margaret thatcher
he put out a video
we're he said you know
well actually it let me just play it for you and you can you'd let let me not
frame it for you too much this is what he had to say about funds take a look at
this
a really puzzled
here again which productions
we spent weeks trying to figure out what do you call this dino you probably think
it's a cellphone now known if i say the audience is how many we have a cell
phone the takes a picture
ninety seven percent hands go up
think about it
taking pictures it's not a cell phone
unit has
a mcdonald's i have to tell your mcdonald's is
based on your g_p_s_ location
that's not self-harm
if you can get a wikipedia notable
that's not a cell phone
if you want you to
that's not a cell phone
or networks
think about it
this device
is something new and different
i've been calling it a hand-held computer
right on his arrival at something no one else has been calling them because we've
got a name for it but
let's continue and then eventually get to him calling for suggestions on
what do we call this thing bull
that they carry in their hand
literally the potential
to have a dramatic revolution and how we get things done and how we take care of
our own health and how we interact with a government and how we are productive
and i think that we need to have a new conversation about re centering yeah
american politics and government around the kind of breakthroughs that this
makes possible alright so the question is of course what do you call this thing
it's like
it's kind of a phone
but it's got all these absence stuff and and he says his multimedia production
company just didn't know what it should be called
that they're called smart funds they've been called smart phones for years and
newt
and it's shocking to me that he has a multimedia production company
who wasn't smart enough to say before you filmed this three minute video
making you look completely out of touch
it's called a smartphone we know that nobody there thought to do that
i guess no one did just uh...
connected those pieces you can criticize the guy he is trying to bring his base
into the twenty late twentieth century which both of the way behind
but at least it'll be closer to where they've been over the last uh... few
election cycles i mean if he's talking to
the people here we talked to have been under a rock for the past forty years
yeah
then this probably brilliant it reminds me of when that ron you referred to a
touch-tone keypad as in like and by and all touch-tone phone the number that
realize however order a sandwich
it trestle
touch-tone keypad test that
and you know it's semister such attacks the stretch the stress that the other
email all about him touching different pads but that touch-tone keypad
is probably not exactly lena
out of touch yeah
