I could have told ya my friend. Trump possibly could lose a sizable number of his Southern democrat supporters due to her endorsement. Maybe he thinks the extra conservative creds from her endorsement more than compensates. - Tyr

While I agree with Sarah Palin on most issues, the very sound of her voice is like fingernails on a blackboard to me.

Sometimes I feel like I am missing something. Palin, Limbaugh, Coulter all supporting Trump???? Is not Ted Cruz the more reliably conservative candidate?

Personally I think there are a couple reason folks don't like Sarah, some woman are jealous that in there hay day they didn't look as good as she does now, some men are jealous cause she is obviously smarter than they are.


I say welcome to the Trump train, as far as I am concerned she will be a bonus, but I see what some are saying.

The answer from my view is yes, Cruz is more reliably conservative, and would be a much better president.

That's the gamble. I guess we'll see how it shakes out.

IMO, this was designed to silence the critics claiming he's not conservative - especially Cruz, who freely admits he would not be a Senator without Palin's help.

The whole thing is risky because she's a polarizing person, politically speaking. I like her, she's my neighbor... she was an awesome Mayor and Governor but she makes all liberal women lose their minds in a big way.

So while this might galvanize the left, Trump does gain a big conservative notch in his belt.

Not much to say from my part of the world. Personally, I like her and would've wanted to see her reach great political heights ....

Sarah Palin is seen here, and painted, as an 'extremist crazy' ... no doubt the BBC has had the greatest hand in seeing to it that Brits view her that way. But now, Trump's the latest 'extremist crazy' in the BBC's sights ... so it'll just be seen as one 'crazy' figure supporting another 'crazy' figure.

From an American standpoint, I can only hope that Palin's support bolsters Trump's voting base.

Yep. Back in '12, if you'll remember, both Cruz and Palin were extremists and crazy and teabaggers and Nazis and etc etc etc. That's how the media and libs everywhere painted them both. The same brush was used on both of them.

I think this only helps. She has a lot of support, and anyone not already looking at Trump, they will now. Then yes, looking for the conservative credentials. I think only the crazies on the left will look at this negatively, and I don't think they were voting Trump anyway. And not everyone on the right is a Palin fan, but I can't see them getting riled up over an endorsement.

Go find some stories on yahoo news and read some of the comments. Funny how the lefties are SO angry about this. And why? That would be like me getting angry at a leftie endorsing Hillary - I really couldn't care less either way. But the moonbats, they are a different breed. They demand tolerance, but then openly wish for death when Palin speaks! :laugh:

I think Rush supporting trump is an overstatement. More like not opposed to him. But then there's this:


“That’s so unlike Trump. I mean, that’s a huge mistake. But on paper, it’s a huge mistake. Trump gets away with his mistakes. Such is the bond of loyalty that his support base has for him… Any of you who are holding out hope that Trump is a genuine conservative…a genuine conservative would not go after Cruz this way.”

But endorsements are usually not worth much in the long run.

Over here, a Sky News reporter introduced the news story about this by saying that Sarah Palin 'upstaged' Trump .. !!

One of their reporters, Kay Burley, caught up with Trump and managed to get a mini-interview with him (lasted a little less than 2 minutes). Most of it was taken up with Trump saying he'd had a lot of support from people in the UK (.. which surprises me ..). She ended the interview by asking Trump, 'Do you always believe what you say, or are you just a clever marketeer ?'.

Thought I'd add the Sky News page including the video clip of Kay Burley meeting Trump. Hopefully it'll play in America.

The video I'm referring to is the third one down .. although in the one above it, obviously preceding the third, Burley asked Trump 'Is it always rhetoric, or do you believe what you say ?' He walked off without answering her that time around ... and she picked up the 'marketeer' suggestion from a supporter, which was subsequently used to spin her question the second time around.

This could be very significant. It could help Trump lock down the Christian right and tea party, if he hasn't already. Without those groups, Cruz is screwed. See what happens.

It's like sparring in sports. When one is upset that they are losing and trash talks, the winning team can just point and say "scoreboard".

I like them all. But I'll let the polls and then the upcoming primaries do the talking. I'm happy with almost everything I'm hearing from Trump and Cruz, and between the 2 they are dominating.

I was in two minds about whether to post this .. but on balance, maybe it'll serve as an illustration of the BBC's rabid, thoroughly disgusting, bias ...

Just heard an advert for an upcoming BBC Radio 4 programme. It'll be broadcast next Monday, at 8PM (GMT). Its title is .. I kid you not, this IS the actual title ... wait for it ...

TRUMP AND THE POLITICS OF PARANOIA.

Says it all about their, ahem, 'objectivity', eh ?

Its description is as follows:


Michael Goldfarb looks at the history of America's politics of paranoia, from the beginning of the republic to Donald Trump's current campaign

It's as I posted recently. Every so often, the BBC comes up with a programme (usually radio) which is intended to try and paint America in the worst way they 'can'. One particularly memorable one, years ago (obviously) was their 30 minute broadcast dedicated to the proposition that American troops in Iraq behaved as an oppressing invasion force, even vandalising Iraqi culture ...

Not going to happen. Like mixing water and oil. Trump wouldn't play second chair anyway. Too much ego. Cruz wwouldn't play second chair to Trump because Trump is not a conservative, and all he does throw low blows. I wouldn't work for him. He'd talk to me the way he talks to others about once.

I don't know what conservative would even consider supporting him. Didn't we get this in 08? A completely unqualified person in office because he talked a good game? Talk about selling out conservative values.

I think Rush supporting trump is an overstatement. More like not opposed to him. But then there's this:



But endorsements are usually not worth much in the long run.

I'm not a Limbaugh fan, though he's usually right more than wrong. I think you were right about his 'not endorsing/supporting' Trump:

http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2016/02/02/reality_replaces_the_media_narratives_and_a_new_ro und_of_narratives_takes_off


...

I wish I could remember who said it. "Who would lie in an entrance poll? Makes no sense why anybody would." Well, obviously the entrance polls were not right, and the 13 polls preelection were not right, either. Exit poll question: "Shares my values." Trump at 5%, Cruz 38% "shares my values." Rubio 21% "shares my values." What is that a reference to, do you think? What is "shares my values"? (interruption) No, it's not religious voters. This is what everybody wants you to think. "Shares my values." This is a question of conservatism.


This is asking people, "Does this candidate share my values?" This is an ideological question, in my estimation. I think this indicates that 5% of the voters that went in there last night and caucused think Trump shares their values as a conservative. Thirty-eight percent think that of Cruz, and 21% think that of Rubio. Now, if you add Cruz and Rubio, if you add their totals, you get 51% of the vote. Now, I do not know the degree of sophistication to which the caucus-goers last night consider who's the establishment candidate and who's the outsider or whatever.


But if you combine Rubio and Cruz and if you just take them individually without attaching them to anything, you've got two conservative guys here. Rubio and Cruz are two conservative guys. That's 51% of the vote. Trump 24% of the vote. If you want to you can add Ben Carson, who's demonstrably conservative, and you're up to 60% of the vote in the Hawkeye Cauci was for conservatives. It works every time it's tried, is my point. Conservatism wins every time it's tried. When somebody tries to fake it, real conservatives are gonna spot it and it isn't gonna fly.

...

While I'm not looking for the 1980's, there are lessons to be learned from Reagan. As Rush notes, there are lessons to be learned by what Trump has done, important lessons for the GOP. They need to listen and act, the truth is though, you learn more from your opposition than those that agree with you.
