Uh oh.
Breitbart: I am sure there are a great many conservatives who were deeply disappointed with Sarah Palin’s endorsement of Donald Trump Tuesday. It was hard on the ears and harder on the heart. If anything, Sarah Palin and Donald Trump made Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) look more presidential.
I do question her motives, because while Donald Trump is many things, one thing he most assuredly is not is a conservative. He isn’t. And that was always Palin’s touchstone — true conservatism. Until now. more
wait…… I thought Breitbart was all in for Trump?
…kind of agree w/ Levin on this… Palin’s thumbing her nose at the RINO Establishment that knifed her in the back
…. & why does that guy on the right have a set of nuts under his mouth?
Agree with Pamela Geller. On this forum, years ago, when I first landed at IOTW, I wrote about how she had ended her political career by quitting her job as governor and then becoming a TV personality.
I was attacked, accused of being a moron, a troll. Liberal, Larry was around then and I was accused of being LL.
Told ya so.
neener neener
Still not voting for Cruz [Goldman Sachs] for president.
He can’t help it. He was drawn that way.

I think Palin did Trump more harm than good. I think she should just stick to her own reality show.
So Trump has the endorsement of Palin and Bob Dole. Two people who ran in presidential elections – and lost.
I guess I missed my cue to be outraged.
I think everybody is reading too much into everything. If Sarah Palin endorsed Cruz instead, the Cruzbots would be insufferable with their celebrating. And the Trumpsters would be slamming her.
Trust me. After Iowa, nobody is talking about Sarah Palin anymore. Not even in New Hampshire.
The Fat Lady isn’t singing yet, but she’s picking out a song.
God I hope so!
Yes let’s take our ball and go home good plan
Sometimes the worst bastards are the bastards on your own side.
Yes, Zonga, I remember. You correctly called her a quitter. You got it right, so you righteously earned that “neener”. (-:
Define “your side”.
Pam Geller for The United States Secretary Of Homeland Security!
I wonder how she will feel when Glen Beck comes out to endorse Cruz?
Palin is an America first populist, so why shouldn’t she endorse Trump?
What many seem to ignore is that a very, very big part of being POTUS is openly promoting America (nationalism) and rallying the people behind America (populism).
I honestly don’t get why people object to her making a living with the hand fate dealt her in the land of opportunity. Has she stopped promoting American interests? Has she stopped promoting family values?
Yes, she quit the governorship when endless lawsuits threatened to leave her ineffective and financially ruined.
But, you know what, I voted for her while hoping the excitement of winning would put McCain in the ground right away. I liked the fact that she openly praised America and had a kid in uniform just like I did at the time.
It’s amazing how many “conservatives” bray about the TEA party requiring “purity tests” only to dump on folks like Palin. Those who do should seriously look around at the company they’re in.
I was tired of Palin years ago. Go away.
Well said Al.
Did Trump go up or down since the endorsement? I am marinating a spaleen in vinegar and gall, with a dash of Choula hot sauce, which I intend to eat if her endorsement helped him. I am a man of my word.
Haha! This was on Twitter last night (click picture to enlarge it when you get there):

I’m wondering if Terry Branstad jumped the shark too?
Sarah P, no matter what, is incapable of KNOWINGLY supporting a candidate antithetical to American values. I trust her IMPLICITLY.
congratulations……most sensible post of the evening
no, you didn’t say that her endorsement would help him, you said her endorsement would hurt him …… 6 points, if I remember correctly
If nothing else. Trump has put the entire republican/conservative base at each others throats. Not saying that was his intentions, but that is the result.
yup
To me, as a rabid Cruz Supporter, Becks endorsement is a negative.
Did he cry when he announced it?
To early to say. I didn’t go out and buy any black pudding yet, but early indicators are saying I’m eating a yuge filet mignon and not pudding.
If it’s an ethanol shark, then yes.

“Squirmish” was the last straw with me. I’m tired of these unforced errors.

I don’t know about anything else but I am pretty certain about this: when it comes to Sarah Palin’s face, she has ‘jumped the shark’.
I remember people like Krauthammer calling her a “populist” back in the day, but she also used to espouse the Constitution and “time-tested truths” evident to the Founders as well as those of us living now. She chucked all that with support for Trump. He wouldn’t know the Constitution if it bit him in the ass. He’s another “pen and phone” type.
Moan Labe. Yes I said it would hurt him and if it didn’t I would eat a spaldeen. I have the spaldeen marinating right now, waiting for a result.
Sarah Palin had to quit the job because she was flooded with frivolous lawsuits and couldn’t do her job as Governor anymore.

Truer words never spoken. Never. It’s like watching the family trying to murder each other after the reading of the will.
I cannot say it better. A fine encapsulation of a great American stabbed in the back by so-called conservatives. This will be sweet payback.
Get out the Cholula. Trump rose in the CNN Iowa pole about 5 to 7 points AFTER the Palin endorsement.
That’s okay, the establishment will see to it you wouldn’t even have a chance to.
Not this time.
I don’t anymore. She backed the guy we know see hints that the GOP establishment prefers over Cruz. That isn’t computing for me. Either she believes Trump is for real, or she too has somehow finally been compromised. I do not buy this whole “middle finger to the GOP” thing. By any measure, Cruz appears a much bigger flipped bird than Trump.
Or…she doesn’t trust Cruz and figures Trump – himself not 100% trustworthy – is the best bet.
Who knows. Won’t matter in the end. The Democrat will be the next president.
