Sarah Palin: Steve King Suffers ‘Potomac Fever’ Suggesting Donald Trump Pays for Support
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | February 1, 2016 | Alex Swoyer

Posted on 02/01/2016 1:10:03 PM PST by Bratch

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who endorsed GOP frontrunner Donald Trump, told supporters at his campaign rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on Monday that “You find out who your friends are” in politics.

Palin went on to criticize Rep. Steve King (R-IA), who endorsed Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), for alleging that she was paid to support Trump.

“Steve King – friend of mine – I thought,” Palin began. “Here I see that just a bit ago he is accusing me on MSNBC – first, MSNBC really? – of selling my support to Mr. Trump. This is why when you read things like this, people don’t really like politics.”

Sarah, don’t go there. Steve King is one of the most prominent and principled conservaties in all of Washington.

Palin went on to criticize Rep. Steve King (R-IA)

In speaking of one of the only true conservatives in congress (Steve King), Sarah Palin opens her mouth and continues to embarrass herself...

She’s a far cry from 2008.

How the mediocre have fallen.

This is an example of what the Cruz-vs-Trump conflict is doing to FR.
Thank those who oppose your position.
50% of us on FR, in the end are going to be proven wrong in 2016.

What we don’t want is for 100% of us to be proven wrong.

He knows it isn’t true, she said of King, adding, That just doesn’t sound like the heartland of America, referencing where King is from in Iowa.

She suggested he spent too much time in Washington, D.C., and has Potomac fever.

His accusations here are way off base, Palin charged. Listen up, Steve King. Mr. Trump did make me a promise, and I will be better off when it is fulfilled. That is why I am here today. I’m collecting on the promise. Mr. Trump promised me he will make America great again!

Nobody is too principled or too conservative that they cannot be thrown under the bus if they’re in the way of the phony conservative Trump.

Perhaps Steve King is a principled Conservative but making an allegation with no proof - i.e. “I know things” strikes me as highly unprincipled as he is trying to imply something. If he has real information rather then he should say something and lay it out rather than trying to just plant suspicion. The race is getting out of hand in my opinion and people are saying things that only help the Commucrats.

Sounds like some don’t like principled conservatives being criticized. If King said something improper about Palin, it’s totally her right to criticize him. The reverse is also true.

Steve started it by lying even liar Cruz said that Steve said that on his own. The Cruz team is dying on the vine and trying to cause trouble for other campaigns.

Go Sarah! Go Trump! Two Patriots!
