Ping to Sarah's Amazing List.

The party of Donald Trump began almost 10 years ago to the day, when John McCain tapped Sarah Palin to join his ticket.

“She’s not from these parts and she’s not from Washington, but when you get to know her, you’re going to be as impressed as I am,” McCain said when he announced his decision. “She’s got the grit, integrity, the good sense and fierce devotion to the common good that is exactly what we need in Washington today.”

Even though McCain and Palin were bested by Barack Obama and Joe Biden, Palin inspired a slew of copycats, unleashing a political style and a values system that animated the Tea Party movement and laid the groundwork for a Trump presidency.

VOX gets it 100% Correct. Whether they meant too or not.

Vox sucks, they're just another batch of partisan media shills regurgitating DNC talking points -- such as the one where a bunch of uneducated gun-toting racists were fired up by some opportunists. Thanks KC_Lion.

“...but when you get to know her, you’re going to be as impressed as I am,” McCain said...”

... as he proceeded immediately to do everything in his power to undermine her.

AND berate us as “racists” for stepping up to her - and HIS - defense.

I won’t miss the man at all.
