Sarah Palin Endorses Donald Trump, Rallying Conservatives
NY Times ^ | January 19, 2016 | Maggie Haberman

Posted on 01/19/2016 1:35:17 PM PST by C19fan

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’m proud to endorse Donald J. Trump for president,” Ms. Palin said in a statement provided by his campaign.

Only if..

1) they are thoroughly vetted they are not radical Islamist

2) thoroughly examined for any contagious diseases

3) Vetted for other criminal activites

4) and have demonstrable usefulness to American economy.

Then some can come back LEGALLY.

Canadian born Rafael Cruz says they can have a path to legal status without deportation. That is amnesty no matter how you slice it. Path to Legal Status for Illegals

This is a much welcome affront to Barbara Bush, also, after her absurd remarks about Sarah Palin. Her remarks certainly didn’t help Jeb.

I'm sure the vitriol will be astounding. Regardless, I probably want Cruz a bit more than Trump, but I'm happy with either of them. They are the only two, so Palin did OK.

I am honestly not sure I can vote for Trump. He has no principles that I can see except Trump.

Oh please. You are a bitter person because you didn’t get your way. I am not a liberal troll because I support a different candidate then you do. That is just silly. You are having a tantrum and I understand that like any 2-year old you need to get it out of your system. I don’t find Cruz conservative in immigration, banking, and a few other areas that are a concern. You may want more foreign workers like your candidate but we don’t need them. So breath and get over your arrogant self.

in essence, she sold out for the money.

You've got to be kidding. You don't know a damn thing about Sarah Palin or the Palin family if you believe that. If she was in it for the money, she never would have relinquished the governorship.

No, what motivates Sarah Palin is what she truly believes is in the best interests of the country. Palin knows both Cruz and Trump. Deciding to go with Trump means she thinks he would be the best man for the job.

A true American born conservative would never push for a path to legal status for illegal invaders in this great country.

I agree, some comments are outrageous and downright hateful. Neil Cavuto mentioned Freerepublic when talking about the Palin endorsement and I wondered if someone were to check out this site, what would they think about the childish comments in the Cruz/Trump battle?

“...just because he SAYS he will build a wall (he probably won’t) and he will deport them all (he definitely won’t)..and all this after spending a lifetime of doing THE EXACT OPPOSITE.”

Gotta agree there. Trump has, indeed, spent his entire life, to date, not building a wall and not deporting illegal aliens. It might not MEAN too much to you, of course, but it’s also true that he had absolutely no authority, as a private citizen, to do either of those things.

As President, he has much more power and can push to get those things done. Don’t think Trump can get people to do what he wants? Just look at what he’s done to the media.

How can I be bitter when I never claimed I wanted her to endorse Cruz? My observation is she just lost any credibility for supporting a Manhattan liberal who is running as a Republican just as Bloomberg did. Why don’t you just admit you are a RINO as I know you are?

The Cruz “camp” did not “bad mouth” Sarah. It’s sad to see that Sarah has decided to support this Narcissistic liar. He is NOT what America needs, another authoritarian.

I will vote for Cruz if Trump doesn’t win and I’m a big Trump guy. yes I will get emotional and pissed off at Cruz posters but when the dust settles I would not sit it out or vote for a democrat or establishment guy Republican.

politics is bloody and I will not hold a grudge after it’s over no matter what is said on FreeRepublic.

Trump/Palin 2016 Woohoo!!!

Have some of the people making rude, nasty and insulting remarks bothered to consider that Sarah Palin is the one who gave Ted Cruz his soap box. She actively campaigned to get him elected... He said he wouldn’t have been elected without her support. She knows both Trump and Cruz. For whatever reason she has lined up behind Trump. Maybe she actually knows a little more than the average person posting here even those who are now feeling very disappointed?

I will happily support either candidate if they win the nomination. Let’s try to remember how important it is that we win this next presidential election. Our country is currently on the road to ruin. We need a powerful leader will have the gumption and ability to reverse our course. He also will need the ability to deal with those on the other side. Trump is a deal maker.

I for one greatly admire Sarah Palin and her opinion and decision on this matter is very important to me. She is an amazing person and with the help of God has accomplished more than I would ever hope to. The insults from those who have made them only change my opinion of them.
