Donald Trump is claiming that he didn't invite Sarah Palin to the Republican convention because Alaska is too far away from Cleveland, Ohio.

If she hurts campaigns why does she have such a high win rate with her endorsements.
Ask Cruz if he would be a Senator without Palin. Ask Haley, Ernst, others. Palin isn’t like by many but they are GOPe jerks we don’t want running things.
It would be a huge triumph if a Sarah Palin speech was a secret surprise for the convention. I can see the announcer saying, “Our next speaker needs no introduction. You all know who she is. So, hold onto to your seats because she is going to blow this convention wide open!”
I agree as well... It's too bad. That speech she gave at the 2008 RNC convention was fabulous. A home run. It all went south from there...
Yep. I was a huge Sarah fan as well. Still like her but her schtick doesn't work anymore. Her delivery is woeful and her cliche speak is soooo played.
Yes, Palin is loyal to Trump, but she’s pathetically inarticulate!!
I cringe EVERY TIME she speaks. Keep her away from TRUMP!!
I was jumping for joy when she gave such a perfect acceptance speech when McCain chose her. But it was scripted and we later learned how ditzy she could sound when speaking impromptu and being interviewed.
Good values, but really a ditzy speaker.
Sadly, I agree with you. As much as I liked Sarah, she got to sound like a stand up comic routine...going for the sarcasm and jokes...she didn’t sound like a serious leader.
She absolutely did say it, and it is true.
The Diomede Islands |
Little Diomede Island, on the left, is part of Alaska. Big Diomede, on the right, is part of Россия. Check the map.
With the line up of Rinos speaking, I am not very excited to watch. Just hope Trump is able to keep his promises to us.
Sarah may not have even wanted to speak there. She knows she can be polarizing. She already had a goodrun with Trump during the primaries including Florida.
Oh bull s—t!
Every endorsement she won she was a king maker.
Every endorsement she lost..., what endorsement?
I do believe she was a help in some instances. McCain benefited from her endorsement for return to the Senate.
Ouch!
>I have to agree. I really liked Sarah in the beginning, bought her book when it came out. But then she went off the rails. She is damaged goods- by the media, the Dems, Liberals and some of her own doing.
It’s mostly her kids. They haven’t turned out well and that reflects on the parents.
PoliticusUSA was founded in February of 2008 by Jason Easley. Jason had a vision of a liberal and independent news site which would offer a mix politics and opinion in an unfiltered environment, not beholden to any specific political or media agenda.They appear to love clickbait headlines.
Article seems a little biased, yeah. I’ll wait for the truth or maybe we’ll never know why she wasn’t invited. Or maybe this is all psyops like the ABC networks are using in the death of Philando Castile. Castile probably was going to kill that cop and no, he wasn’t stopped for a broken tailigjt, which would have been a legitimate excuse but for armed robbery.
Does your Alsheimers "clinic home" know that you've escaped?
The article says she was asked by Trump. Contrived controversy by a far-left rag.
Disinformation is more than ever very likely. They had Tebow on the list and he tweeted out yesterday morning that was not the case. This whole list is nothing more than Trump letting the media sink itself by reporting assumptions as fact.
In reality, Sarah and Don have made their deal long ago and I fully expect that she will be first, Energy Secretary, long enough to shut it down, as she said she would, and then onto the consolidation of anything having to do with Interior, whether it is or not right now, being lumped in and dissected by getting rid of the waste and useless agencies.
Then why wasn't that the reason given? It'd make far more sense than saying Alaska is too far away.
If she was indeed asked, that lame excuse about being so far away is probably to save face. It could be that she decided not to come because she knows how the media attacks her, and she did not want to detract from Trump.
Well, you gotta admit, that *is* over the top.
