Any guesses as to what else Trump has up his sleeve?

Sara is hated and savaged by the GOPe. By having her on the stage, Trump is sending a signal. If you hate the GOPe, I’m your man.

That’s all it is. Simple as that.

I looked TWICE to make see who wrote this ... then I remembered I was confusing Byron York with that awful Rich Lowry.

I need more sleep. I can’t keep pace with you, hoosiermama.

As much as I like Palin, Trump just lost a bunch of Dem votes in the General election. He must think he needs her endorsement to win the Primary....more likely, to keep Cruz from winning.

That’s so idiotic. He basically complimented his sister once. And anyone sane knows the chance of getting his sister confirmed by a hostile Senate. His sister is 80 years old. And you’ve already been could spreading outright lies and then claiming you were joking.

Don’t be dumb. He’s asked Carl Icahn. In fact Trump and Carl are already rolling on the corporate inversion issue.

They are the only ones talking about that. Trump will defend out economic border like no other.

Cruz can fight as long as he needs to, the aide suggested: "It's going to stop when Trump wants it to stop."

The New York translation...

Donald Trump on Abortion

 
OnTheIssuesLogo  
I am now pro-life; after years of being pro-choice:
 
Donald Trump shocked attendees at the conservative CPAC conference in February when he declared himself pro-life after years of supporting the pro-abortion position. Several months ago, when questioned about his position, Trump responded by saying the public "would be surprised" by his stance and, in an interview with Laura Ingraham from Fox News leading up to the conference, Trump characterized himself as "pro-life" and he repeated that apparent reversal when he told the audience at CPAC, "I am pro-life" and pledged to fight for the reversal of ObamaCare, which contains abortion funding loopholes.

As the 2012 race intensifies, pro-life advocates must call upon Donald Trump to further explain his stand on important pro-life issues like Supreme Court nominations and repeal of the pro-abortion Obama healthcare law.

Source: Steven Ertelt in LifeNews.com , Apr 8, 2011


I changed my views to pro-life based on personal stories:

Q: Evangelicals want to feel secure that they're going to have a nominee that's solid on those social issues.

A: One thing about me, I'm a very honorable guy. I'm pro-life, but I changed my view a number of years ago. One of the primary reasons I changed [was] a friend of mine's wife was pregnant, and he didn't really want the baby. He was crying as he was telling me the story. He ends up having the baby and the baby is the apple of his eye. It's the greatest thing that's ever happened to him. And you know here's a baby that wasn't going to be let into life. And I heard this, and some other stories, and I am pro-life.

Q: So those stories did change you, they came around and changed you?

A: They changed me. Yeah, they changed my view as to that, absolutely.

I am pro-life; fight ObamaCare abortion funding:


Billionaire Donald Trump told the Conservative Political Action Conference that he's thinking about running for president. His remarks drew lots of applause and cheers from the crowd, who will play a key role in grass-roots organizing for the eventual 2012 GOP presidential nominee. "I'm well acquainted with winning," Trump said. "That's what this country needs now."

I’m finding, too, that loyalty (both ways) means a lot to Trump. This was a risk, but he weighed the risks and the loyalty to Sarah, especially in light of how she was treated by the media, the Dems and the GOPe and wants to give her the opportunity to be involved with something big again. I’d like to see him involve General Petraeus in the future if he would be willing, to give Petreaus the opportunity to be involved with the movement and clear his name at the same time. Would give Trump military advisor as part of his camp.

Yes it’s an endorsement, not a running mate.

Sarah’s not a running mate. If she was I’d be worried.

No guesses at all, Trump will be spontaneous and won’t announce much ahead of time....ever.
