I think the strategic “get” of Sarah who previously endorsed Ted Cruz in his run for Senate, so close to Iowa and on the heels of the debate miscue on Cruz’s part (I’m not saying what he was trying to say was wrong, but the way it came out and Trump’s response caused a net effect I believe was negative for Cruz) is a tough blow...not unbeatable, but a blow, nonetheless to the Cruz campaign, and the apparent Glenn Beck endorsement for Cruz is going to appear a little desperate, IMO. These things are more about timing and strategy, and I think Cruz would rather be on the other end of this turn of events than the one he is on. Of course, there’s still almost two weeks which is an eternity.
This is a plus for Trump and will help flush out the shills and backstabbers, especially in the media.
“I’m a red neck woman/I ain’t no high class broad/I’m a product of my raisin’/ I say “Hey Y’all and “Yee haw’’......
The MSM will now argue about the term, “Pussyfooting” for 2 days. They’ll say it’s considered by the Prude Community to be uncouth, offensive, insensitive with sexual overtones.
Interesting that she brought up Rand Paul.
A Washington outsider endorses a Washington outsider. People are fed up with business as usual. They are not buying the tired old promises from the usual politicians that lie to us every 2 or 4 years in their campaign speeches. Time for a change. Time for Trump.
President Trump. We love him and the Republicans and Democrats hate him. Who ever thought a billionaire would be a man of the people?
I have been a BIG fan of Sarah Palin. I had VIP seating at an event she put on when she was running for VP. Got the photos to prove it.
I still have little respect for Trump as a “Republican” candidate.
I still am fully supportive of Ted Cruz.
Her “endorsement” has no effect on me, other than being bewildered by such a baseless endorsement.
Sarah is back and I am elated. Her speech in Ames, Iowa knocked it out of the park!
“Those who think this will not turn a few votes are not tuned in very well.”
I really don’t think it’s going to make much a difference now. 6 years ago she was a big part of the GOP taking the house and picking up seats in the Senate.
She wield the kind of clout she once did. There are a lot of conservatives that won’t support Trump, her backing him won’t bring them over to him, it makes them question Palins judgement.
As far a s general election goes, Palin is poison. She can only hurt Trump, in particular in the swing states. Palins is still and extremely unpopular figure holding and over 60% unfavorable rating in polls. Independents don’t care for her and some of those Democrats Trump is trying win over will hesitant with Palin backing him now.
I think any GOP candidate is better off without Sarah Palins support.
I have been looking the other way on Sarah Palin for a long, long time.
I respect what she accomplished in Alaska, and I think the country would have been much better off is she had been part of the winning ticket in 2008.
But since she left office, it has been a long, inexorable slide into celebrity nonsense. This endorsement of Donald Trump is the last straw. Her “celebrity†status has been eclipsing her ideology more and more over the years, and with this endorsement, the process is complete. She has become the Kim Kardashian of American Politics.
Goodbye Barracuda! It was nice while it lasted!
