i disagree. and i’ve always liked Sarah, but this not a good move. she should have remained mum about the slight to her and reached out to king in private to see if he was now sorry for the comment, in retrospect. things are said in the heated moments of a campaign when people are fighting for their political lives, that may prove just wrong. looking back for context. King was a close partisan of cruz (whose reputation was still good at that time). at that point, Palin’s endorsement of Trump was considered a stab in the back to many conservatives.
with 20-20 hindsight, King, i’m sure would like to take back that heated political statement about Palin and probably unendorse cruz, but he may have felt he had to defend cruz, at that time with both barrels blazing.
in terms of cruz’s “dirty tricks” those are legion and shouldn’t be laid at the feet of king. i hope king is a big enough man and conservative to forgive palin, admit that he was wrong about her and President Trump and work well with her if she ends up in Trump administration.
King was bought and paid for himself by the Cruz camp; his son was on the payroll.
What he himself was doing, he accused Palin of doing with Trump and he was dead wrong.
Palin’s endorsement of Trump was dead right and Cruz attacked her viciously when it occurred with a threatening tweet.
As Jim Robinson as so often pointed out for us, Trump is a firm conservative.
Trump is way more conservative than even Cruz, the Bushie RINO Goldman Sachs fake constitutionalist who knew he couldn’t be president.
