In this case, no more than I was. I was surprised by Palin's choice because Trump is a confirmed moderate leftist. Look at his past -- I did.
How about Trump when he had such effusive warm praise for Hillary and Bill Clinton -- not general in-passing praise, but warm, effusive specific praise, in 2008? Now he says Hillary is so corrupt she shouldn't be allowed to run, so GeaugaRepublican,
YOU tell ME ...
Is Trump a bad judge of character?
You tell me.
Would Cruz have turned down her endorsement had she offered
it to him?
He was doing the same thing that many of us did, he was trying to push Democrats toward Hillary away from Barack.
Heck, I sent Hillary a donation on that campaign during the primary. I did a spreadsheet of each and every donation that Trump made. Serious pols give money strategically. It helps to look at the date of the gift to understand the strategy.
Trump was willing to give Cruz the benefit of the doubt. Phyllis Schlafley has also given Trump the endorsement. Perhaps she is also no good, notwithstanding her commitment to conservatism since 1946.
