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.”

Yes! She’s a principled conservative who doesn’t find it necessary to malign her fellow conservatives. If he has evidence Trump paid her off, let him produce it. Har! Har! Like that will happen.

I’m, sick of the childish ways and comments by both sets of voters for Trump or Cruz.

I want Cruz , but will vote for Trump and we should be frigging happy we do not have the establishment figure in prime position.

His voting record should not insulate him from nor grant him the self privilege of making false accusation’s. Today’s voting record has much to do about posturing, more than anything else. Obama has gotten everything he wants and we just hit 19 tril in debt. All the way around, it has become a crap sandwich.

Total bull shit. Sarah Palin is not for sale nor can she be bought. Anyone who knows her history damn well knows it. Steve King may be a conservative(whatever that means today) but he is also a liar.

Thanks for the mind numbing dialog. By the way, this is not the medium for transgender outbursts. Huffpo is better for the limp-wristed...

Steve King haven't done $hit for the country for longer than any of us should care.

Steve King stood up for the babies, and very few men [or women] have had the courage to do so:
Republican Rep. Steve King of Iowa stepped out of the House chamber where the State of the Union address was about to take place Tuesday, electing to pray in the members' chapel during the speech due to President Barack Obama's stance on abortion.

"When the president announced that he would have an empty seat up by the First Lady for those who are victims of gun violence, who no longer have a voice, and I thought of the millions and millions of unborn babies -- on his first day in office he issued an executive order that accelerated abortions worldwide," King told TheBlaze moments after stepping out of the House of Representatives chamber.

The lawmaker followed through on his promise from earlier in the day, adding that he took the "last chance" to leave the chamber just a few minutes before the president spoke.

I completely agree with your post.

If that had me instead of Palin, I wouldn’t have been so polite. I would have said that Steve King is a damn liar.

I smell desperation from the Cruz team. I think very highly of Steve King....stress can do strange things to a man.

You go Sarah!

We love Sarah Palin unleashed, finally she is able
to say what needs saying.

No more bowing down to the media and/or the GOP elites.

Conservatives, unfortunately if you look closely there are
none left. It is a sad truth in America, that conservatives have been used and then trashed when they are no longer needed. I have never called any politician a conservative, that is toooooo laughable. They come with warts and many faults and they are not true conservatives.

No Liar equals saying something about Palin that isn’t true. The rest of you so-called conservatives may not feel the need to defend her but I will.

There was no reason for Steve King to say that about her. He knows better. Unless, Who in Washington owns Steve King? He obviously has been bought by someone.

Biggest regret of my life is not selling B&O and Reading Railroads to my baby sister. Broke her heart.

Cruz was likely on his knees to King in desperation begging him to say something that would harm Trump. After the shaming letters who knows what the guy would do.

heh heh

The fuel ethanol process has molecular sieves that put the ethanol under heat and pressure. Sometimes a valve will malfunction and a safety pressure release will create an aerosol cloud of ethanol. Instant wooziness for anyone caught in the cloud!

(Peter King, heh heh)

Trump has bragged publicly that, as a savvy business man he, in plain English, bought politicians in order to use then whenever he needed their services and favors. That is the reason he gave $250,000 to the Clinton scam Foundation in addition of very generous political donations to the Clintons, la Pelosi, Reid, the communist Mayor of New York, Bill de Blasio, and many other mostly corrupt leftist Democratic politicians.

Cruz’s campaign is becoming unglued which sad to see as I like Ted. They need to have Steve King apologize.
