Were those charges true or not? If not, couldn’t she have sued for libel?

They weren't true, but as the elected official she was, she couldn't win in any court of law. Any judge would have thrown it out immediately. That's not true of the lawsuit she has against the NYT now. Which in a just world she woul win, but because of high bar of the libel laws, she probaably won't. But, as you may not have noticed, she didn't quit, she's taking the fight to them. And you ought to pray she wins, it would help us all if she did.

She may have not been right when she resigned, but she sure didn't act like a quitter when she left. She continued by trying to get behind, and support, conservatives who were running for office. Did it until around 2014 with a track record of over 80% winning when she endorsed them. She helped conservatives be proud to hold their views.

It's why Trump was so happy to get her endorsement. He knew her, befriended her, was influenced by her, and he was the first politician since she bowed out to make the kind of coalition she formed.

She was great. Trump before Trump. He borrowed from her a lot.

She burned out from the incredible politics of personal destruction from the left. In the end, it was too much to handle, as it would have been for 95+% of us. I count myself in that 95+%. You may be a good pilot, but you likely could not have handled what she did. Not for one week.

So let me suggest you not use the leftist slur invented for her. "Quitter". Brought to you by Barrack & company.

Trump took her place, and has taken the same kind of unrelenting flack. He is also a once in a lifetime person. I don't know of anybody else who could have handled what he does every day, every week, every month, and it's endless.

I really think you could show a little kindness to someone who carried, and forwarded the Tea Party torch so well, a real warrior who carries more battle scars than anyone other than Trump. Who forwarded conservative principles so well.

She paved the way for Trump. Let's see if she can claw her way back, and encourage her if she tries. She certainly doesn't deserve to be scoffed at and scorned with names made up by the left.
