Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin thinks a President Donald Trump is "a very real possibility."
"I think it's a very real possibility because people are really tired of professional politicians who, you know, won't call it like they see it and maybe don't have life experiences that allow them to prove a track record of success," the former vice presidential nominee said in a radio interview with WBT Charlotte's News Talk radio on Thursday.
"That's refreshing about Trump," she said. "He's a fighter. We know he's gonna put America first, and he really nailed it early on what the main problems are in America right now, so it's a very real possibility."

Who cares ?
Because the talk of the town here was finding the most conservative candidate who adheres to the US Constitution.
The Trump supporters have lost sight of that.
Because, The US Constitution matters.
I guess your right My man Trump !
Go Trump Go !
I guess the US Constitution does not matter anymore.... Sarcasm..
Ted Cruz is the candidate to restore the rule of law and our main foundations were we live by the US Constitution.
No, we haven’t lost sight of that, at all. Your statement couldn’t be further from the truth.
More drivel pushing....by a Cruz supporter.
No sale.
Btw, JimRob supports Trump...has he ‘lost sight’ of ‘adhering to the Constitution’?
Take your hateful, projecting comments somewhere else.
Its beginning to look a lot like Trump. :-)
What exactly have the ^true conservatives^ in congress accomplished?
Obamacare scrapped? Illegals deported? Wall built? Anchor babies outlawed? National debt reduced? Abortion restricted? China trade deficit reduced? Food stamp growth curbed? Welfare growth reduced?
If Trump can deliver any 3 of above, he is more than enough conservative for most rational people.
Trump is conservative on these issues:
Pro life since at least 2011, wanted to ban partial birth abortion as far back as 2000.
Pro Traditional marriage. ^Gay rights is not my thing.^
Pro capital punishment ^Capital punishment isn't uncivilized; murderers living is^
Hold Judges accountable
Opposes ^Common core is a disaster^ Teach citizenship, quit ^dumbing down^.
Anti education unions (2000)

Doesn't have time for political correctness.

Nice! Great to see media looking foolish!
Ford ran and was soundly defeated.
Jim Robinson was to first support Ted Cruz even last year up to when Ted Cruz entered the race and still does support Ted Cruz....
It’s there look it up.
Talk about projection...
You think I don’t know that Jim has supported Cruz, and for how long? Seriously?
I don’t need to look it up...I know! I used to support Cruz 100%. I’ve donated (the max allowed) to his campaign and even volunteered with my time. (Have YOU?)
Jim supports Trump for the fight he’s taking to DC and the GOPe. I also know Jim doesn’t support anti-Trump trolls. Look THAT up!
Neither does he support anti- Ted Cruz trolls, look that up to.
Good! He shouldn’t!
Since you have been predicting Trump’s demise for 5 months, but you can not tell us the date when that will happen, it is obvious it is simply wishful thinking on your part.
Oh, trust me; I’m familiar with the aggressive rudeness of Cruz supporters. From what I have seen, far too many of them operate on the principle, ‘Whoever dishes out the worst insults and slander wins.’
In case you missed it:
“Cruz supporters cannot conceive of the damage they’re doing their candidate. They used to be content to call Trump supporters idiots and liberals. Now their every accusation seemingly has to include a character attack. They say, ‘You’re lying,’ as meaninglessly and frequently as liberals say,’Conservatives are wrong.’
They can’t figure out or don’t care what effect their tactics have on others. As long as they’e on the attack, they plow right on, alienating people to the point of no return. It’s sad to watch. Cruz deserves better.”
Very few Trumpsters go to Cruz threads and troll anti-Cruz remarks.
On the other hand Cruz supporters are ubiquitous on Trump threads attacking Trump. I can’t blame Trumpsters for responding to attacks. We learn from the master. We only counter attack, almost never initiate attacks on Cruz.
‘but we both know there is no way that Trump would serve his country if he was not the center of attention.’
Smearing Trump will not help Cruz.
What in that statement is untrue?
Smearing Trump will not help Cruz.
You disagree? You think Trump would serve as a VP or ambassador? The guy has spent most of his life building monuments to himself, he is not about to stop now!
I disagree to the extent that you are not God, with the ability to see into Trump’s heart and know his motives. You smear him with projected motives, but only God and Trump know what really drives him.
Some believe he is a true patriot who hates seeing the destruction Obama has brought about, and wants to do what he can to reverse it. Others look for the worst motives they can find and assign them to Trump. This only diminishes the person doing the projecting.
