Will Palin's endorsement help or hurt Trump?

From my international perspective, neither.
Palin has a reputation for being backwards with her ideals and policies, but NOBODY can hurt Trump's reputation and campaign like he-himself does every time he speaks in front of a camera. I'd also say that the second-coming of Jesus as a Republican Trump-supporter could do nothing to possibly help him either.

I voted "help" but in retrospect, "neither" might be more appropriate. Believe it or not, Palin still has dedicated followers among conservatives. It's just that anyone who might still be supporting Palin is probably already supporting Trump, so... neither.

I had to wait for my daughter's train today and Amtrak was delayed so I had the radio on an AM station trying to get information. A commentator was saying that Palin let down Ted Cruz. If that is the case, perhaps she will help Trump. Perhaps she will deliver some votes to him that otherwise would have gone to Cruz.

Added another clown to the circus. Just reinforced that they are both idiots.

Enthusiastically embracing it. "In a statement announcing the endorsement, Trump said, "I am greatly honored to receive Sarah's endorsement. She is a friend, and a high-quality person whom I have great respect for. I am proud to have her support.""

Me too. Seriously I feel as if we are in some surreal twilight zone universe because I keep thinking this cannot be happening.

Oh. I must must have misunderstood the question. I was trying to address whether Palin would help Trump in the primaries. If this is going to be a thread about Palin, why not say so? There is actually wonderful information about her available, much of it on video.

When I heard this news, especially the part about how she "represents real conservative values the best" I almost crashed my car because I was laughing so hard I hyperventilated. Even better was that in the reporters next breath they announced her son was just arrested for domestic violence. I was like "yea, that really represents "real conservative values" right there." Great job, moron.

I probably shouldn't be laughing, but... how can you possibly *not*?
I'm actually a-okay with whatever Republican quackery has pushed this pair of nitwits further into the limelight... they're making it awfully easy for anyone with any common sense at all to vote in a way (any way!!) that I personally prefer...

...and it doesn't worry you that enough Americans seem to lack enough common sense that Palin was once the Republican nominee for VP and it seems as if Trump will now be the Republican nominee for President?
I mean, that isn't too close to the White House for you?
I'm not a-okay with Palin or Trump making it as far as as either did. It really worries me. The American people really worry me.
I think that while it's easy to poke fun/make jokes (because it's well-deserved) about some of the presidential candidates, I'm not laughing any more. I agree with AGBF - I'm genuinely concerned and a few of the candidates (on both sides) really, truly frighten me.

On one hand I could not agree more with what you are saying, but... to quote Ron White... "you can't fix stupid".
Those Americans who would vote Palin and Trump into office - well, it is my fervent hope this group is the minority, because nothing can possibly hope to "fix" that dearth of comprehension, reasoning, and sane judgment
The extremists do make it easier for non-extremists to cross party lines. It's the silver lining to the sorry joke that is the Republican candidacy.

Well she killed McCain's campaign, so I fully expect she'll do the same for Trump.
Example? What the hell did she say here...

I think it depends on your opinion of her. My fear with the presidential race is he will get elected because people will vote for someone other than Hillary.
I honestly think we are damned either way. Neither party has a respectable candidate that is truly looking out for the good of the country. Sad times we live in!

The full video is at the end of the article, Deb. She sounds deranged.

Thanks, Monnie. I guess I'll watch it later tonight when I can delegate time to such a task. It sounds like having to watch one of Adolf Hitler's speeches in German with a dictionary at one's side: the definition of tedium. I had no idea she spoke for so long and that being informed required one to spend so much time watching a performance. But I needed the information.
