UPDATES - The Guardian's Ben Jacobs, on the scene in Ames, Iowa, reports that Aissa Wayne, daughter of country film star John Wayne, made a huge (yuge?) misstep while warming up the crowd before the expected appearance of Donald Trump and half-term governor Sarah Palin:
Aissa Wayne committed a major #gaffe while opening for Trump and Palin. The rally is taking place in Ames on the campus of Iowa State University, whose sports teams ares the Cyclones. At the end of her remarks, she told the crowd "go Hawkeyes!" The Hawkeyes is the name of the sports team of Iowa State's arch rival, the University of Iowa.
Both schools earnestly compete to be the number-two institution of higher education in Iowa behind Grinnell College, an elite liberal arts college located in Grinnell, Iowa

"Anybody here like John Wayne movies?" she asked the crowd, before declaring that her father, a noted draft dodger, "dad loved America, and he loved and revered liberty."
He also was a fan of immigration - to an extent.
Trump tweet: Donald J. Trump ‎@realDonaldTrump “Palin’s brand among evangelicals is as gold as the faucets in Trump tower,” said Ralph Reed, the chairman of the Faith & Freedom Coalition.
Who knew that Sarah Palin was such a wicked, godless hussy?
/Cruz supporters
Love ‘em yesterday...hate ‘em today...
This is Yuuuuge!
I love @SarahPalinUSA Without her support, I wouldn't be in the Senate. Regardless of what she does in 2016, I will always be a big fan.— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 19, 2016
re: “Anybody here like John Wayne movies?” she asked the crowd, before declaring that her father, a noted draft dodger,. . .”
Liberals can be such jerks.
I’m still thinking Trump & Cruz may kiss and make up later.
I hope so. I think Ted is his best Veep choice.
Reporters speak some foreign dialect.
Good thing he’s not running. Such news tends to stunt a campaign.
Derangement syndromes are like that.
You gotta understand that in the eyes of the Cruz folks, by choosing Trump, she just rejected the Messiah. And Jesus, too.
(Again, no need for the acrimony between Trump and Cruz supporters here. Most of us like both.)
Mr anti establishment trump gave a big wet kiss to the taxpayer wasting crony ethanol lobby. Read their script perfectly, like a ISIS hostage.
The first of many conservative sell outs to come.
He sent big signal to Ryan and McConnell, he is the K St candidate!
TRUMP!
Had Palin endorsed Cruz, I could hear Trump in my mind saying, “Ted’s been endorsed by Sarah Palin? So what? The Palins are trash. I mean, whats with the brawls at the parties? Whats with her daughter getting knocked up all the time by the lowlifes? It shows she has no parenting skills. Her kids are more out control than Jeb Bush’s!. Ted can’t be president keeping company with filth like this!”
You know he would have said something like this.
Regardless, this Palin endorsement will help him in the primaries. It’s going to kill him in the general election in some close swing states. Independent voters hate her. She is a double edged sword. She boosts you with Conservatives, kills you with independents.
Great way to describe Sarah...she is Golden!!
Sarah Palin went from Anti-Crony Capitalist Crusader to CRONY CAPITALIST ENABLER in about as much time as it took Donald Trump to praise Hillary Clinton.
Sarah Palin is a phony!
