(NewsNation) — Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin tells “On Balance with Leland Vittert” she’d be honored to serve in President Donald Trump’s second administration but hasn’t been contacted.
“I thought that there’d be a position in energy, in that department, because that’s my baby … but that hasn’t happened,” Palin said Friday.
She pointed to “gatekeepers” within the administration, telling NewsNation: “It gets frustrating for those with a heart to serve.”
“I didn’t even get credentials to attend the GOP convention if you can believe it,” she added. “They’re tight, they’re tight.”
The former governor told NewsNation that she’s the only living Republican to have run for vice president or president — and support Trump — who was not at the event.
Of his current administration, Palin said she thinks recent unforced errors from the administration show why some experience matters.
Particularly, experience in local government: “You learn, from the bottom on up, how important it is to be on the same sheet of music. And not to have blind loyalty.”
Palin predicts that, if Trump’s policy changes aren’t implemented in a timely manner, the administration might see some early turnover.
“If his agenda is not going to be ushered in — per the vote of the people, that’s the wishes of the people —then I think they will regroup and maybe, already, change some persons,” Palin explained.
Let’s face it. Misbehavior by Todd Palin and some of the kids didn’t do her any favors. Oh, I know that they were saints compared to Hunter Biden et al., but the media had a field day with their trailer-park-type antics.
True. If I remember correctly, her family is FUBAR and in the public eye for a long time.
As an Alaskan I say NOOOOOOOO!!!!
She was a state governor.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I like the Mama Bear, she got a raw deal from McLame.
Trump would not be here without Palin. She paved the way as a lone voice in the wilderness during the dreadful Obama years. One of the only conservative America first politicians, while the Republican party was controlled by globalist open border neoCON free traitors like Romney and McLame and Paul RYNO and G W MORON leftovers.
And her endorsement of Trump in Iowa was huge...
That said, she does - UNFAIRLY - come with baggage because of the all out media assault against her and her family. Trump should find something for her.
Yes it was wonderful to hear her a decade and a half ago. It’s like rewatching a movie from way back, it’s nice to watch but not daily. She had her time. Time for the successful ones to run the government.
Agreed.
Palin was the only reason many voted for McCain.
That would be me.
No.
Me too!!!!
Grifter Sarah just needs to go away. She is very unpopular in Alaska, and for good reason.
Agreed. Palin got shafted in terms of future prospects by the candidate she was attached to.
Totally agree. But she also wasn’t ruthless enough.
Contempt for sarah palin is absurd.
She made Donald Trump in 2016 by blocking Ted Cruz.
She is the female trump who excoriated Obama for palling around with terrorists while McCain kissed obamas ring.
Her church was burned in December 2008 by Obama fanatics with women and children inside.
It’s shameful how she is treated by everyone in this nation.
The woman has a stain, a McCain stain, where she got her 15 minutes. She’s done, washed up, and of no value other than to a bunch of old Freepers that still have the hots for her. Likely the same crowd that couldn’t get enough of AOC’s dance video before it dawned on them she’s a commie.
You sir are a sick and petty man.
And your comment tells much of you! LOL!
Palin is the only reason I voted for McCain.
