At this point, however, there’s no indication that Governor Palin’s gig was anything more than a guest appearance.


True, when Gov Palin signed off, last night, she thanked the network for the opportunity to guest-host, for the (past) week.

I’d love to see Palin, Breitbart News and OANN team up, to put together a formidable conservative network....something to give establishment FNC some competition.

Tomi Lahren has left the network. Bummer!

I watched last night’s episode, from beginning to end. I would’ve LOVED Palin to hit both Jeb and Hatch with some Palin-style hardballs.

The questions you mentioned, dandie, are great questions. Not sure why Palin didn’t go after a little more red meat, on her interview. Maybe because she knew it was a temporary guest host gig? Not sure. Overall, I thought she did fine, with the (very) limited resources this network has (producers, equipment, crew) and I’d like to see Palin return and get down to brass tax - like she does in her FB posts - with her guests.

I did note that both Cruz and Trump were VERY relaxed and were able to take their time, without being on offense, in answering her questions. That was a nice change from the usual gotcha questions they’re always asked.

And, FWIW, Trump has mentioned his strong support for our LEO’s...over and over and goes out of his way to thank and visit with LEO, every chance he gets (at airports, event venues, etc.) I think he may have even paid some/all of the overtime for LEO’s and others, at the AL rally.

Just by reading the toughness she portrays in her twitters...

It is amazing how much toughness she can pack into those 140-character tweets. That's probably where folks like you have grown to know what she is really like and expect tougher Kelly Maygun and Katy Colonic styled questions.

Well, I saw it posted, on a thread, here (within the last couple of days)...and I found this, on a somewhat quirky site (teaser article)...

http://www.inquisitr.com/2354542/is-internet-sensation-tomi-lahren-joining-fox-news/

She said in a recent tweet, per above link...that some big change is coming...and to stay tuned. Who knows?

Beg pardon. Mistook the antecedent to refer to Sarah, not Tomi. Nothing else to see here. Carry on.

Just the SLIGHTEST HINT that Trump and Palin could team up sends them into fits

Thats a good sign

Can you imagine what this douche-nozzle would be saying if it happened?

The “Silent Majority” included many of us including a young person like myself who thought a military victory in Vietnam was the answer.

RINO Nixon hijacked ‘my” group of people with our resentment of the liberal media and long haired hippy radicals.

Many of the older ones voted for George Wallace in 1968 whose views on Vietnam were to seek peace and if that didn’t work use full military force instead of the limited war with ‘rules of engagement’ that was actually fought.

Nixon and Kissinger were too busy dealing with the Communists to do the right thing in Vietnam.

I was eight at the time (1968) living in Miami but all the people I knew voted for Wallace.

A lot of support for Wallace in FL, who launched his political career with the ‘schoolhouse door’ speech in June of 1963 which was very much a ‘staged event’.

Wallace wasn’t going to reignite the Civil War and JFK was worried because MLK and the “Civil Rights Movement” were forcing him to commit to Civil Rights alienating white Democrats in the South. JFK would end up having the FBI spying on King and making the audio ‘sex tapes’.

Wallace found new issues to talk about instead of ‘segregation forever’, like violence on the streets and the liberal media and the lack of military decisiveness in Vietnam (his running mate retired AF Chief of Staff General Curtis Lemay).

The Democrat machine twisted labor union members arms in the North, the radical protesting anti-war commie fascists showed up to disrupt Wallace appearances right before the election, limited his popular vote to around 13-14 percent when the polls had shown him as high as 21 percent a month before.

Trump sat in the pews while Norm Peale preached about positive thinking.
