EXCLUSIVE — PALIN CALLS FOR BOYCOTT AFTER BUZZFEED HIT PIECE ON TRUMP
Breitbart Big Journalism ^ | 19 Feb 2014, 9:13 AM PDT | Tony Lee

Posted on 02/19/2014 2:55:07 PM PST by onyx




Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has a message for Donald Trump about BuzzFeed blogger McKay Coppins, and it's one that other Republican officials might heed when liberal journalists come looking to "humanize" them.

"This nervous geek isn't fit to tie the Donald's wingtips," Palin told Breitbart News after Trump ripped Coppins for lampooning him with what he alleged were out-of-context quotes and boorish behavior at Trump's Florida resort. "Don't ever give him attention again."

Coppins tricked Trump's advisers into thinking he would profile Trump as a potential "major" GOP 2016 presidential hopeful. As Breitbart News reported, the Jan. 5 email from Coppins to now former-Trump aide Sam Nunberg read:

“I've already done big profiles of all the major 2016 GOP players, including substantial sit-down interviews with Rand Paul and Scott Walker, and features on Ryan, Rubio, Cruz, etc,” Coppins told Nunberg, adding that choosing BuzzFeed for the profile would “show that he's ahead of the curve and understands the new media landscape.”

His access secure, Coppins attended Trump's speech at New Hampshire's famed "Politics and Eggs" breakfast, which has hosted nearly every major presidential candidate. The resulting piece, "36 Hours on the Fake Campaign Trail with Donald Trump," was one of the most venomous hit pieces in recent memory. Coppins trashed Trump as a joke, with all the preconceived notions, snark, backhanded compliments, innuendo, and mockery that those like MSNBC's Chuck Todd, a notorious Trump hater, and Coppins' editor, Ben Smith, have been throwing around for years.

Trump needs to get off the fence—go into Politics—maybe fund a new Party—The Liberty Party—or run for and win Governorship of New York—then clean up the state and do a good job. Bring back Jobs—then and only then, I might consider him for the White House. He must prove himself—That or get off the stage and let real political people do the job of saving the nation. He might make a good VP—He can be a hatchet man for the President—might I say Presdent Palin? or President Cruz?

Coppins looks like the geek in the school yard how gets his as* kicked every day.

That probably describes the childhood of most Liberal males, which is why they live out adulthood still holding a grudge against successful men like Trump and attractive women like Sarah.

Guess it takes one to know one...

If you can't recognize Trump as a buffoon, I can only assume that you'll for any chucklehead's self-projected image, no matter how in conflict it is with his actual history.

I worry about people like you and the fact that you vote.

You’re right about Palin, but Trump’s never done anything nice for me, so I don’t feel obligated to ignore the fact that he’s a jackass.

Because he has LOTS of money that someday, may come in handy for her.

I guess Sarah missed Clown Trump's Twitter flame war with Michelle Malkin, or his support for amnesty, or his naming Maureen Dowd as his favorite op-ed writer, or...

If you asked Palin about mcbackstabber today she would probably say, “Bless his little black heart”.

boehner created that fashion statement. I think boehner gets his tan from drinking brownish/orange shoe polish.

“Trump makes life miserable for some democRATS”

That’s the thing - I just don’t think he does. For him to “make life miserable” for anyone, they would have to take him seriously. Which no one does. He is a living, breathing cartoon.

“boehner created that fashion statement. I think boehner gets his tan from drinking brownish/orange shoe polish”.

___________________________________________________________

I can’t believe I’m going to write this...but Boehner actually seems better at carrying off the tan than Trump. At least Boehner’s tan is closer to brown than orange. Plus Boehner has way better hair than Trump.

Yes, yes so shallow of me to notice and comment. I wouldn’t vote for either of those two men. To me they’re both clowns not worthy of my vote.

So very true! Can’t remember which TV show had the whole spoof on how scary clowns are. I just remember thinking I felt the same way ...clowns...not to mention painted up mimes ...kinda creepy. Add a dash of orange and then we’re talking creepy crazy. :)

Have a marvy day...
