Sarah Palin Endorses Donald Trump, Rallying Conservatives

Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 vice-presidential nominee who became a Tea Party sensation and a favorite of grass-roots conservatives, will endorse Donald J. Trump in Iowa on Tuesday, officials with his campaign confirmed. The endorsement provides Mr. Trump with a potentially significant boost just 13 days before the state's caucuses.

I thought maybe I was the only one who noticed. I am listening to Sarah’s speech on Fox right now. You are right she sounds nervous like she is jumping out of her skin! Not like some who has been on the big stage for years. Something is weird, I don’t remember her sounding like this before.

If Trump wins and it looks like he will, especially with Sarah Palin’s endorsement, I will have no problem voting for Trump.

But you have no problem trusting Canadian born Rafael Cruz who was pushing a path to legal status for illegals?

Do you mean like Trump was doing just a couple of weeks before he suddenly decided to deport hem all? Just back in June he was talking about a way to allow the "good" illegals stay in the country and be legalized.

Cruz pushing import of Syrian Refugees

What about Trump calling for Syrian refugees to come into the country as recently as September? Or did you forget about that?

Cheap Foreign Workers on H1-B visa

Well, it is hard to know what Trump really believes about H1-b visas - his website says one thing, but he said something completely different during the debate in October. So I guess you can believe which ever one of his positions you like - or if you don't like either, just wait. I'm sure he will have another position before it is all over.

I had to read that FOUR times before I finally figured out you WEREN’T praising obummer! LOL!

*whew*

I thought you had lost it for sure! :)

A very sane and well reasoned post. I’ve come to expect nothing less from you.

Cruz pushing import of Syrian Refugees:

None of that matters because Cruz is a Conservative.../s

[nopardons]

That it was and she was completely AMAZING !

[nopardons]

Just because that is what YOU would do, in a NYC minute, doesn't mean that Palin sold out, by endorsing Trump.

She wouldn't do that and has lots of money.

“I can’t believe I’m seeing DU worthy Palin derangement on Freerepublic.”

They’d be singing her praises if she endorsed Cruz. Imagine how blessed Cruz feels to have supporters such as these. Yeah, I know, he’d probably like to take the lot of them on a snipe hunt.

My lovely wife first asked why they wouldn't turn her mic down, and she started off high pitched, and a bit over excited.

At the end, she was absolutely dumbfounded at how good it was, almost crying.

Sarah just knocked it out of the park, a grand slam.

YAAASarah hey Donald yay freedom for America greatest day of the campaign so far!!

I agree Cruz and Trump are the only two choices....and the thing is Cruz is the more vulnerable to Dem attack in the general election... Trump has prove to have armor skin and Trump is eager to attack..this will be a brutal war /election... Trump is the better choice to fight that kind of war....he a no prisoners taking kind of guy........ if the object it to break up the Dem/Gop joint DC power structure.... ...Cruz is conventional weapons ..Trump is the Nuk... Rand Paul is a pillow fight... and the rest are collaborators

Very good job summing it up. What you state should end every argument.

Yep. I defended Sarah during the Palin wars here with everything I had. She’s lost me on this. Sorry Sarah. It was nice while it lasted.

Peace,

Cruz, all the way to the White House.

Where did you guys get to see er speech? I had it on FBN and they went back to Lou Dobbs.

I looked for a live thread (with a link) but couldn't find one.

[onona]

Hello Dear, I do hope you are doing well. I would truly like to hear your thoughts.

Thanks, Onona

Did you see her explain why she endorsed Trump for president?

[manc]

EXACTLY

You would think we would be happy to see the establishment getting the message and having two candidates, but instead it’s my way or no way for some.

[CAluvdubya]

Thank you! I didn’t think it would be up on You Tube already!
