Just when Sarah Palin’s enemies thought they would not have her to kick around anymore, she dropped the political equivalent of a nuclear bomb and endorsed Donald Trump for president. Her 20-minute speech at a rally in Ames, Iowa while the Donald stood by like a fidgety school boy was a stream of consciousness production that so violated the conventional rules of rhetoric that Cicero would have opened his veins had he heard it. But Hunter Schwarz caught the poetic cadence of chiasmus, a Hebrew form of parallelism which she likely picked up attending church. The Washington elites may have rolled their eyes but her target audience, evangelicals, understood her exactly.

Everyone likes a winner?
Not surprising. Sarah Palin - Secretary of Energy While It Lasts.
I clicked on the link to read more about the Hebrew literature idea. No development of that, instead analysis that I have concluded and heard repeated all over the place.
bflr
She love’s a winner and competence.
Trump did not endorse De Blasio.
And drastically reduce legal immigration.
Trump retakes IA lead, keeps big edge in NH and SC (IA Trump 39%, Cruz 34%, Jeb 1%)
The speech later that day in Tulsa was the "OLD" Sarah, lively, on-point, full of zingers like "OPM." She said the same things she did in Ames but the delivery made the difference - she was listened to for content as her enthusiasm was infectious. Unfortunately the Palin haters use her Ames appearance as an example of her irrelevance. However those of us who have supported her since 2008 know different.
Yes, that, too.
Will his people show up? Cruz has the best organization and ground game.
Because she is awesome and she recognizes a good candidate when she sees one.
I think Palin is supporting Trump because she thinks he
can whip Hitlery Clinton’s butt and does not think the
others running can beat the Clinton machine. She is also,
like most of us, very concerned about the influx of
Hussein’s jihadists into the U.S. and Trump is the only one
of them who has voiced loud and clear that he will place
a MORATORIUM on this wild influx that Hitlery & Hussein are
pushing. - She is also running for nothing and is not
afraid of hard work and knows she can get a job just about
anywhere in spite of “Katie” the Enforcer Couric! Also, she
sticks by her family. I doubt she is crazy about Trump. He
lives in a different world than I; and I don’t think he is
an example particularly. Not bashing King David; but the
Bible stories about him would curdle most modern
Christian’s milkshake - but he was a “man after God’s own
heart” for God’s own reasons.
The answer to the question in the headline is: money.
None the less, she seems pretty clear to me.
And...she's right.
The thread for bitter whiners.
She gave and has plenty of good reasons to endorse him.
The supporters of a certain candidate can’t see them through the bitterness.
Quite sick if you ask me.
Sarah versus Beck?
Huh? Glenn Beck Tells Iowa Crowd He Prefers Bernie Sanders Over Donald Trump

Beck said he had never endorsed a presidential candidate in his 40 years of broadcasting, but he made an exception because of the urgency of the moment.
He said he even prefers Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a self-proclaimed “democratic socialist” running in the Democratic presidential primary, to Trump.
“Honesty, faith and truth are basic requirements. And quite honestly, I have to tell you, this probably isn’t going to go over very well, that’s why I like Bernie Sanders,” he said. “Bernie Sanders is like, ‘Yep, I’m a socialist.
‘
“I can actually sit at a table with a man who says, ‘Yes, I’m a socialist, and yes, I don’t like what we are doing, we should be more like Denmark,’ “ he added.

Thanks!
Great reality slam against the Palin hatred on FR!
When asked by Jake Tapper on the Sunday show a while ago, he asked if she were to be considered for a Cabinet post, what would she like to be considered for. Her response was quick and decisive, Energy. She was also quick to say it would be the shortest tenure ever for that post as she would go into it with the intention to close it as soon as possible.
