Are two representatives of the Republican Party’s worst impulses about to join forces? That’s the rumor, and it’s making a third representative of those worst impulses kinda sad.
A Sarah Palin endorsement of Donald Trump would do more damage to Palin's conservative credentials than it would to Ted Cruz, the candidate's communications director said Tuesday, remarking that he would be "deeply disappointed."
Trump has teased a "major announcement" and a "very special guest" at a campaign stop in Ames, Iowa, later in the afternoon, leading speculation that it could be an endorsement from evangelical leader Jerry Falwell Jr. (whose Liberty University hosted Trump on Monday) or from Palin, the former governor of Alaska and 2008 vice-presidential candidate.
Sarah Palin is likely to do what will get Sarah Palin the most attention, and that’s a Trump endorsement. This is all gossip and rumors right now, of course, and we can’t even really trust Trump that his “major announcement” will be all that major or his “very special guest” all that special.
Still, I’d make popcorn.
