Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says she supports Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trumpâs call for a ban on admitting Muslims into the U.S.
âHerd mentality [is] running rampant with hypocritical and/or naïve pundits trying to crush Donald Trump because heâs committed to clobbering the bad guys, and putting the good guys first,â she wrote on her Facebook page.
âTrumpâs temporary ban proposal is in the context of doing all we can to force the Feds to acknowledge their lack of strategy to deal with terrorism,â Palin continued. âA broken system allowed terrorists to come to our home and slaughter Americans. A bold, non-politician candidate calls for a pause in this flaw bureaucratic program so it can be fixed, to make sure it doesnât happen again. Thatâs common sense, which is why the media and spineless pundits attack it.â
Palin said the danger of jihadist terrorism makes Trumpâs proposal an attractive solution for preventing future bloodshed.
âWhen information shows someone comes to America after being in a radical Islamic stronghold, and embraces the death cultâs ideology that mandates butchering the innocents â then we are right in calling for shucking the political correctness that is fundamentally transforming America, and finally putting the safety of Americans first,â she wrote.
âThey have no plan to reform our flawed immigration vetting process,â Palin said of the Obama administration.

Sarah Palin needs to preface common sense as uncommon common sense.
Sarah Palin is a much better politician that in 2008. Trump should pick her as VP. New York-Alaska...great balance.
The comments at the link are unbelievably stupid.
I read 10 of the comments but the stupid at The Hill just hurt to much to continue.
Trump wants to build a wall on the border and make Mexico pay for it, deport illegals, cut taxes on the middle class and corporations, destroy Isis, take care of our veterans, strengthen our military, build the keystone pipeline, repeal Obamacare and replace it with a market based system, stop SS and welfare fraud, fight Mexico and China unfair trade and currency practices ... that’s conservatism ... that’s patriotism ... that’s what it will take to bring America back to greatness .... that’s why Trump is high in the polls ... the establishment in both parties and the media are incapable of understanding his appeal
GO PALIN !!
I’d actually prefer Trump/Palin to Trump/Cruz because I would really hate to lose Cruz in the Senate.
And leftists won’t dare bring up what Jimmy Carter did, he actually rounded out Iranian students and forced them out. Sounds pretty fascist like isnt it..but hey when a Dem does it its all good, only when a Republican says it to save AMERICAN LIVES he gets called a Nazi for it, which is ironic since Democrats LOVE Hitler
The 'progressives' can scream all they like, the rat is out of the bag, Trump has started a tsunami of discussion worldwide.
Because it IS common sense.
I truly believe it is insanity NOT to to enforce a muslim immigration ban.
Schopenhauer said: “All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.”
Now, I don’t know a lot about Schopenhauer, but this seems pretty spot-on, and we are at stage #2 right now.
I suppose we will be at stage three after some heinous terrorist action in our future. It will be argued, resisted, and ignored until some dam is blown up or a dirty bomb set off killing tens of thousands of people, then it will become “self evident”.
I foresee a time when the future will look back at us and wonder how we could have pursued a policy to deliberately bring a population of people among us that contains a definite number of people who wish us harm.
Those people in that subset don’t just hate the West. They want to harm the West. And we have a significant number of people in both the government and the citizenry who want to bring them in, no questions asked.
It seems crazy to me.
African-American Islam Reformed: “Black Muslims” and the Universal Ummah
African Americans make up some 40 percent of the total Muslim population of the United States today. The term Black Muslims, coined by Dr. C. Eric Lincoln in 1956 to refer specifically to the Nation of Islam, is a label that today blurs the complex picture of Muslim groups in this community. Most African-American Muslims now identify themselves with the worldwide Muslim ummah, adopting the beliefs and practices of mainstream Islam, whether as Sunni Muslims, Shii Muslims, or, if they reject such distinctions altogether, as Muslim Americans. The indigenous history of Islam is a fascinating, complex, and uniquely American story.
In the mid-1960s, Malcolm X broke ties with the Nation of Islam when he became dissatisfied with its leadership and non-Islamic teachings. Then in 1975, W. Deen Mohammed succeeded his deceased father, Elijah Muhammad, as leader of the Nation. W. Deen Mohammed began a rapid transformation toward more orthodox Islam, beginning with the assertion of tauhid. He explained the strange teachings of his father as necessary for building the dignity and identity of African Americans, preparing the way for them to embrace true Islam. He renamed the group the World Community of Al-Islam in the West and then the American Muslim Mission. Imam Mohammed courted the world Muslim community, urging other African-American Muslim leaders to gain greater Islamic education and to work toward interracial and interreligious cooperation...

There is a lot to like there, especially “Mad Dog” Mattis as Secretary of War.
Mattis comes across to me as Patton (without the emotional instability of a nuclear reactor on the verge of a meltdown.)
What? For a Dumb and Dumber sequel? Sure, why not?!
LOL, didn’t mean to overstate that. Patton was very emotional, that much is true, but comparatively speaking, Mattis comes across as far more level.
I followed what you meant. No problem.
You're calling Trump and Palin "Dumb and Dumber"?
Are you sure you're on the right thread? On the right site? Or were you just trying to make a poor joke?
He’s a Cruz backer with severe TDS and a little bit of PDS apparently. When I look at Cruz vs Palin, I don’t think there has been anything I’ve disagreed with Palin on. There have been several things I have disagreed with Cruz on. I’m starting to warm up to Palin again for VP. Cruz’s talents may be better off elsewhere.
The Donald is God’s punishment on the professional class of the GOP for running off Sarah Palin. They cut her off from funding and advice because they thought she was a loose cannon. They thought they’d get candidates who played nice with them. What they got was a guy who’s a looser cannon than she ever was, and has enough money to tell them where to get off.
Senate Majority Leader?
