“If she wanted a conservative alternative, she could have endorsed a conservative in the primaries instead of Mr. Trump.”

I'm not certain, but I think Palin waited until it seemed like Trump had a pretty good lead over the others (Cruz) before she chimed in. I seem to recall thinking that “Well - I guess she figures backing a winner is better than backing a more conservative person that loses.”

I get that, and now she is trying to get Trump and everyone else to follow a more conservative path. I hope she is also making those one-on-one phone calls with Trump as well.

And I'm with Reagan on the 90% thing - Trump is on our side. And while some of those 10% of issues I'm willing to agree to disagree - a crappy healthcare plan isn't one of them.

One - I'm sick and tired of spending so much money on crap insurance. Two, and perhaps more important at the moment, I don't want Republicans to own this crappy plan.

“Well you know Wolf, the Republicans never gave obamacare a chance. It was well on the way to being a great plan. But now with the changes they made - well - just look at it. What a disaster the Republicans created....”

Palin endorsed Trump in January 2016, before a single vote was cast. The primary process began with the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary in February.
