They’re not going to let Trump or Cruz be the nominee....better not count any chickens.

Aside from the fact Sarah has no traction with Congress, to go along with Trump’s lack of same, what could go wrong?

[Innovative]

Sounds good to me.

I hope the Trump/Palin ticket will beat the Clinton/whoever ticket decisively.

[onedoug]

“They” can kma.

You people just won’t stop

Trump is going to win enough delgates and will be the nominee

GOP messes with Trump than I guess #BLM and Move on. Org will have company protesting Cleveland

Step outside of the Trump bubble and step into reality.
Actually, stay within the bubble, as at least that will
minimize your contact with normal people, who would rather not be in your presence.

A very practical concern. The best duo would have been Trump and Cruz. We could have held the White Hut for 16 years. We now know that was never the GOPe’s intention, may they all burn.

I don’t think so,Todd will need extensive care and rehab for the next year,and they already have shown in the end,Inc,communist media etc. That will spend 24/7 trashing her and her family. I would like to see her in a cabinet position.

Rightly or wrongly, Sarah Palin was damaged beyond electability in 2008. I’d vote for Trump/Palin, many on FR would, but the country at large would not. I hate that this is true, but it is.

[TheConservator]

As much as I like how she makes liberal heads explode, Sarah quit her position as governor, for no good reason. Permanently disqualifying her from every holding elective office again, in my opinion.

[Vendome]

Whatever, yuh wascist, whack job, nOOb....

[MichaelCorleone]

I disagree that Ms. Palin would ‘lose’ many voters for Mr. Trump. This is a significantly different election this time around, and many of us reckon it’s our final chance to peacefully effect meaningful change.

Ms. Palin would only add to Mr. Trump’s historic numbers.

[John Valentine]

It’s a shame that Palin went for the windbag.

[blowfish]

> Ms. Palin would only add to Mr. Trump’s historic numbers.

That's probably true, but not in the direction Trump is hoping for.

[samantha]

You had a rough childhood eh? Explains a lot. Sort of obvious.

As I watched Sarah Palin deliver a speech on behalf of Donald Trump the other day before an GOP establishment fundraiser in Wisconsin, I was struck by the enthusiastic response of the crowd. She received a standing ovation at the end. Ted Cruz, who followed her on the dais, received only light and intermittent applause. The contrast in their political skills was stark. Palin was the star who knew how to connect with, and hold, her audience. Cruz, not so much...

I heard the exact opposite to this...
