Trump pumped as influential Sen. Chuck Grassley attends front-runner’s rally
The Washington Times ^ | 1/23/2016 | S.A. Miller

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump got a boost for his campaign Saturday when Sen. Chuck Grassley appeared at a a rally here for the billionaire businessman.

Mr. Grassley, who is easily one of the most popular Republican politicians in Iowa, had previously distanced himself from Mr. Trump, including publicly opposing his plan to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States.

In a speech, Mr. Grassley stopped short of endorsing Mr. Trump. Instead he called for Trump supporters to keep up the energy they showed at rallies throughout the state and turn out to caucus for Republicans on Feb. 1.

He came as close as possible to giving Mr. Trump a Grassley stamp of approval, including using Mr. Trump's campaign slogan.

"We have an opportunity again to make america great again," Mr. Grassley told the crowd filling an auditorium at Central College.

"I'm excited to see the big crowds because of the big energy that comes with it," he said. "And that's what it is going to take for us to win back the White House in November."

He said that he was invited by Mr. Trump to attend the rally and that he appreciated having Mr. Trump's support.

Still, Mr. Gassley chose to attended the rally at Central College while Mr. Trump's chief rival for the nomination, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, campaigned elsewhere in the Hawkeye State.

"We need you. The energy that's shown here has to be repeated every day between now and the election. Go to the caucuses and show America that Iowa voters matter," said Mr. Grassley.

All you have to do is look at Trump’s orange face as Sarah gave her speech. He looked like he was about to lay an egg.

BTW, how is Sarah TV working out?

"If you don't like being told you are using tactics of the left, then don't use tactics of the left."

I wrote the exact words of both the question to her and her response. This particular "tactic" is also known as "quoting."

Now in this case, this nefarious "tactic" happens to make the quoted individual appear to be a dimwit - primarily because the quoted individual happens to BE a dimwit.

And I can certainly understand why a person who had admired said dimwit would be distressed by such evidence. But you can take solace in the fact that SHE uttered the nonsensical blather; you didn't.

Sure, if that works for you, go with it :)

Wouldn’t know about Sarah tv, I don’t watch much tv at all.

If you believe loony Beck was a good ‘get’, you are still missing the point.

Do some research on the Diomede Islands, hank. You’ll save yourself some embarrassment.

I accept your capitulation....but you seem a bit overwrought. I'm concerned. Take it easy. It'll be okay.

Reading for comprehension is an acquired skill.

One you should acquire.
