Sounded just like Palin and exactly what she would say. Trump has always been a fan and a supporter of Palin.
She likes him and they are friends.
No, it was not Palin of old as far as sentence structure, delivery and cadence. When she either has time to practice or they let her compose her own improvement will come.
Being friends with someone is the lamest excuse in the world to endorse them for such an important elected position.
