The rumor mill is buzzing today that Sarah Palin will be in Ames, Iowa this afternoon to endorse Donald Trump.
The Cruz camp earlier said this endorsement “would be a blow” to Sarah Palin.
Earlier today Sarah’s daughter Bristol Palin came to her defense.
Bristol slammed Ted Cruz saying, “Is THIS Why People Don’t Like Ted Cruz?”
Patheos reported:
Is my Mom going to endorse Donald Trump for President of the United States?
That’s the rumor, and I’ve been too busy with diapers to delve too much into politics these days. But the rumors were enough to cause staffers from Ted Cruz’s office to slam my mom.
“I think it [would] be a blow to Sarah Palin, because Sarah Palin has been a champion for the conservative cause, and if she was going to endorse Donald Trump, sadly, she would be endorsing someone who’s held progressive views all their life on the sanctity of life, on marriage, on partial-birth abortion,” Cruz campaign spokesman Rick Tyler said on CNN’s “New Day.”
I like Cruz. In fact, I met him last year, and I believe anyone’s better than Hilary Clinton. But here’s the thing, Sen. Cruz. My mom has consistently supported you and encouraged you. You’ve been a great advocate for conservative causes, and she’s stood by you when others haven’t.
“I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Palin,” you’ve said before.
After hearing what Cruz is now saying about my mom, in a negative knee-jerk reaction, makes me hope my mom does endorse Trump. Cruz’s flip-flop, turning against my mom who’s done nothing but support and help him when others sure didn’t, shows he’s a typical politician. How rude to that he’s setting up a false narrative about her!
