Fox News contributor and former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) responded to a recent ad from Vice President Harris’s campaign encouraging women to vote for Harris in Tuesday’s election.   Gingrich said the ad encourages “women lying to their husbands” during an appearance on Fox News’s "Hannity" on Thursday night.   “For them to tell people to lie,” Gingrich said, “is just one further example of the depth of their corruption. How do you run a country where you’re walking around saying ‘wives should lie to their husbands, husbands should lie to their wives’?”  “What kind of a totally amoral, corrupt, sick system have the Democrats developed?” he added. “If you think about it at that level, it is astonishing, the decay.”  He went on to say that the modern Democratic party lacks the qualities of presidents it once housed, including former President Kennedy.   “Instead of having a dignity and patriotism and a sense of morality, these are really sick people,” Gingrich said. “And the more you watch them, to say, ‘Oh, why don’t you lie to your husband?’ as a publicly advocated ad? That is sick. And I think we ought to have the courage to say this is a sick, dishonest party.”  The ad from the nonprofit organization Vote Common Good, voiced by actor Julia Roberts, reminds women that voting is confidential, so they can vote however they choose, regardless of where their family stands. Sean Hannity also weighed in during his conversation with Gingrich, slamming Democratic celebrities.   “A Hollywood jackass spoiled elitist? No thank you. He’s no John Wayne,” Hannity said in reference to George Clooney, who has also voiced an ad in support of Harris's candidacy. The Roberts ad says the voting booth is “the one place in America where women still have a right to choose” as a woman on screen meets up with her husband after casting her ballot for Harris. The voter winks at a fellow female voter as her husband asks if she made the “right choice.” Conservatives beyond Gingrich and Hannity have similarly slammed the advertisement, with GOP pundit Charlie Kirk calling it “nauseating.”  “If I found out Emma was going to the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair,” Fox News host Jesse Watters said on air Wednesday in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.
