Speaking on behalf of Donald Trump, Sarah Palin gave a speech last night to a Wisconsin Republican audience. Standing firmly on a platform of truth, Palin warned the mostly party (establishment) audience their decision to stand with deception in order to win an election also means placing themselves in a very precarious position.
The response from the audience to Sarah’s brutal honesty was what’s customarily known as “the collective nervousness of deceivers“.
Whenever anyone dares to tell the collective: ‘the emperor stands naked’; there’s a particular kind of autonomic group nervousness immediately evident. A group discomfort.
Such was the discomfort when Sarah Palin mentioned Senator Ted Cruz’s weak and opportunistic immigration position, and then contrast a real-life example of Cruz going to McAllen Texas (Saturday, July 19th 2014) to hand out “gift baskets” and welcome illegal alien families.
You could hear a pin-drop as an entire audience sat jaw-agape in disbelief.
So Sarah Palin brings some BIG TRUTH to those GOP insiders who gathered in Wisconsin; and, if we are to give benefit-of-the-doubt to those who heard it, apparently it’s the first time they became aware of Senator Cruz’s forked tongue on an issue. Hence, a gob smacked response.
Palin also pointed out another lie, when she reminded everyone that Senator Cruz never stopped the senate Gang-of-Eight amnesty bill. Despite Lyin’ Ted claiming on the campaign trail that he killed the bill, the reality is that bill passed the Senate in 2013, and it would have passed the House were it not for Dave Brat’s primary defeat of Eric Cantor in June of 2014 shortly before Sentor Cruz took off to the border with his gift baskets.
But Sarah didn’t stop there. She also fearlessly told the audience that Senator Ted Cruz was also lying about another policy aspect, his advocacy for the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal. And, more specifically, to the Trade Promotion Authority bill Senator Ted Cruz co-authored, co-planned and co-constructed, along with Paul Ryan in the House of Representatives. Again, Sarah was loaded with the truth.
The Republican disbelievers didn’t want to hear about that inconvenient reality either. Then again, when you stand boldly in sunlight the cockroaches never approach; they can only comfortably co-exist when they remain cloistered in the dark shadows of deception.
The media’s response to Palin’s speech? Well, initially (and immediately) they began accusing her of lying about the “gift baskets”. Then, after they realized everything she was saying was factual, they started spinning. Eventually, they dropped the subject – and that’s probably how it will remain today.
It’s easier to hide those uncomfortable truths that way. Well, at least until after the Tuesday election I guess.
Here’s Sarah’s bold and truthful speech:
Can I translate that for you? Securing the border and allowing PRIVATE SECTOR businessmen like Donald Trump to build five star hotels and out-of-reach-priced country clubs in other countries like Scotland (the greatest golf course in the world that he abandoned losing money the last 3 years and has since built in Ireland), or casinos that truly put money in the pockets of the working people so they want to stay home. Fair concept.
“Trump International Hotel and Tower Toronto, Toronto”
“Trump International Hotel & Tower Vancouver, Vancouver”
“Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico was a planned 3 tower, 25 story, 526 unit hotel condominium, San Diego. This project collapsed due to the project’s failure to secure financing.[oops, San Diego...had to borrow money?...what’s wrong with his own money? oh that’s right...”Donald Trump is OWNED by Every Bank on Wall Street” link: http://www.redstate.com/leon_h_wolf/2016/01/22/every-bank-wall-street-owns-donald-trump/ ]”
since I got side-tracked...”Goldman Sachs once gave Ted Cruz’s campaign a $1.43 million loan. His campaign also got a loan of less than $500,000 from Citibank. According to Donald Trump, in a claim that has been repeated roughly a billion times, that means THEY OWN HIM. Even though, as far as I can tell, all or part of these loans have been repaid.”
That’s right. Cruz repaid the loans but DDT? 17 million still in debt. http://www.politicalmoneyline.com/tr/tr_PresLookup.aspx?&td=0_1
Now go back to the RedState article and see who is owned by the banks who are establishing the New World Order. Oh, don’t forget his bailouts by Soros.
Back to business...
“For instance, the initiation fee at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla., site of the LPGA’s ADT Championship, is $350,000 with yearly dues of $13,000.”
http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/golf/masters/2003-04-09-clubs-cost_x.htm
Last question. How has anything DT ever built helped Make America Great Again? Has he actually built a plant to build or even market an innovative product that will be EXPORTED? Can he bring his golf courses back here, or his hotels? Can he bring those jobs back here?
NO.
All of his businesses are affordable only by the wealthy but he can vacuum the pockets of the middle class or lower class along with the members of his country clubs at the casinos.
Oh, wait, the economy is going to dive. How does he know? Less golf memberships, less people taking vacations, casinos shutting down. What does he do? Apply for a job that includes housing and lifetime benefits. Maybe they’ll build his library in NYC so he can catch up on all that reading about how the government should work according to the historical meaning of the constitution. Does Time magazine have a special section on that?
In a sane world goodies to illegals would be an impeachable offense.
I guarantee you hard-earned dollars to donuts not ONE of those illegals has an IQ over 75.
HARD-EARNED DOLLARS TO DONUTS!!!
Great job by Sarah!! Her comments are all over the media this morning and not one word from the corrupt canadian’s speech!
In that picture, Ted looks concerned!
I so hate these politician photo ops. Mr. Haney is becoming a master at them. Kack!
Address the Heidi issue not add superfluous crap. No one expects we won’t trade on a fair basis with other nations. But Heidi supports eliminating our borders. If Cruz is not owned by GC and his Wall Street donors why not comply with FEC requests?
Now Josh has two blogs - Texas for Sarah Palin and The Book of Sarah. He also manages the Bloggers for Sarah Palin blogroll and is a contributor to Polical Lore, Publius’ Forum, and Palin Twibe.
Huh?
Ted Cruz was hired as a partner Morgan Lewis & Bockius in 2008, during the presidential election in which Barack Obama became president. Morgan Lewis & Bockius made contributions totaling over $200,000 in support of Obama’s campaigns for President, as well as $750,000 to Democrats since Cruz became a partner.

Among his final clients were “a businessman who pleaded guilty to bribery, a drug manufacturer that fired an employee who refused to break the law, and a company that illegally copied another’s tire design.” Cruz lost all of those cases.
1. The businessman was Robert Mericle, who bribed two judges to give minors harsher sentences in the infamous “kids for cash” system. Why? To make money for his private juvenile detention center.
2. Cruz represented Moog, a company that fired a spokesperson for refusing to promote its pain control pump Accufuser for nonapproved purposes. Cruz argued in appeals court that the trial jury didn’t fully analyze whether the company made the request. The appeals court found the evidence for illegal misconduct to be overwhelming, and Cruz lost that case too.
3. Cruz also made money from a case he argued in December 2011 on behalf of a Chinese tire company against charges that it illegally took blueprints from Florida businessman Jordan Fishman. Cruz failed to disprove the accusations. Last June, an appeals court upheld a $26 million jury verdict in favor of Fishman.
These and more are unemotional facts about Cruz’s say-anything-to-win character and past conduct inconsistent with the perception hes a consistent conservative.
Seems after getting burned by so many “conservative” Ivy league lawyers over the years who back stabbed us over and over, one would learn to not do the same thing and expect a different result.
lawyers can refuse cases especially civil ones. partners vote on large campaign donations.
I see a pattern;
Pro-Trump person: Great Speech!!
Anit-Trump person: Terrible Speech :(
What I did notice that Cruz asked them to stand for the Judeo Christian values that built America.
You know, like clearly saying he never cheated om his wife during his marriage.
And coming clean that he knows that Trump had nothing to do with the NE article.
Speechifying cannot overcome Cruz’s insincerity when he speaks, because his actions belie his words.
BTW, plenty of folks not standing for Cruz also, when he started, and not applauding during his speech when others were.
‘by not getting these kids back home to their parents.’
Apparently you’ve never viewed photos of these ‘kids’. Most look to be in their late teens or early twenties, and far too many of them were covered with gang tattoos. They were a crime wave unleashed on the US, with predictable results.
That’s OK.
We all have opinions.
And we express them here on Free Republic.
Are we ‘Sessions’ista’s also?
Jeff Sessions and Sarah Palin both know Cruz and Trump much, much better than anyone here.
Please give me your best answer as to why you think they endorsed Trump and why Sarah in particular seems to not like Cruz.
There are a lot of similarities in the situation between Cantor’s and Cruz’s wives in terms of their involvement in finance and business. (Congressman Cantor also spoke out of both sides of his mouth regarding immigration and other conservative issues but the voters in Va’s 5th district are not dumb and saw how he voted versus how he spoke and threw the bum out.) She was also a vice president of GOLDMAN SACHS as well as chairman or co-chairman of multiple boards of trustees including the Virginia State Retirement system!
The Goldman Sach’s angle was interesting because of Cruz’s wife’s connection to it.
In short, Cruz is dead to me as a candidate!
Eliminating our borders is included in “ Economic pros- perity and a world safe from terrorism and other security threats are no doubt inextricably linked. While governments play an invaluable role in both regard?”
Raising the living standard of the poor FIGHTS the agenda of the communists, does it not? Don’t the communists want to subjugate them and keep them slaves in addition to destroying the middle class?
That’s true. FReep-ON!
Go Sarah Go!
"Current law" CANNOT re-define original intent. Only a Constitutional Amendment can do that.
I would submit that "current law" is flawed and needs to be reformed, to reflect the restrictions of the founders. They clearly didn't want the outside interests of foreign citizens or "anchor babies" compromising the office.
(which is exactly what we currently have)
But, the Cruz story is so much better. The truth doesn’t matter.
“Raising the living standard of the poor FIGHTS the agenda of the communists, does it not?” No this increase the number of poor. Its called redistribution of wealth and always fails with mass death misery and violence.
The method that works to raise the level of opportunity to increase the living standard of the poor. But they have to work for it.
I’m sure Cruz gave teddy bears to teenagers and young adults.
