Sarah Palin, praising Donald Trump.

ADDED: Rupar has some more good clips:

Sarah Palin says Trump was "the best president that we've ever had." Somehow this leads to her talking about media coverage of her kids and how much Trump "cared about family" and supported "a culture of life and a culture of love." (Is she talking about the same Donald Trump?)

There are 2 Trump's.

One is the real Trump. The one that lead our country to peace in foreign policy and helped the middle and working class actually grow and prosper.

The other is the Trump that exists in the leftist alternate reality.

Ann being a NYT's/WAPO reader lives in this alternate reality. This reality is built on lie after lie after lie.

Ann brought up the topic of bad faith in a previous post. One instance of this is the left being caught in repeated lies and still maintaining that their world views are supported.

Be it Russian Collusion, Kavaaugh rapes, Trump changing room rapes, Trump raping women in 1st class cabins, investigating ukraine lies, J6 protestors killing Brian Sicknick blood libels.

Now we are on to grabbing steering wheels, flinging catsup, and 10 year old girls being forced to go to Indiana.

And seemingly intelligent people like Ann have allowed these repeated lies to push her into a construction of Trump that does not exist.

You will be susceptible to this crap until you are honest with who you are and what you want.

You are just transparent and fake like the leftists that are using these lies until you deal with this.

Inga said...

Do Americans really want this clown to be president again? As I do occasionally, I must ask what is wrong with you? He’s become even weirder, if that is even possible.

Inga said...

As for Sarah Palin, I sure didn’t miss her voice. My ears hurt. She and her strange family (excluding little Trig, he’s a sweet innocent) what a bunch of yahoos.

rhhardin said...

Trump seems to have good kids.

Achilles said...

This is not a bunch of choreographed lies read off a teleprompter.

These are real people being honest and saying what they mean.

The people who consume politics every day like many on this blog prefer a slick costumed approach where people act the right way and say the right things and tribal allegiance is affirmed.

Trump connects to the majority of Americans that don't want politics to dominate their life. They go to work every day and come home and want to hang out with family and friends and watch a football game.

We are tired of the liars and politicians. They are all parasites and they never produce anything except talk and corruption.

Any reasonably honest and intelligent business person who has had a real job will get my vote over any career politician.

Jupiter said...

What exactly is "transphobia"? How can you tell that a person is not transphobic? Is it transphobic to think that women have vaginas?

Critter said...

You must have linked the wrong Rupar video. There was nothing crude or transphobic about his comments.

I miss on the stump. He's an egotistical guy but entertaining as can be. I support him for his policies but would sure rather hear him speak extemporaneously on subjects across the board than listen to any other politician. One only need to be able to separate the entertainer from the political with seriously good policies.

Dave Begley said...

1. Steve Bannon is the common connection between Trump and Palin.

2. Rupar calls himself a journalist. He’s just another leftist hack. Biological men competing in sports against woman is a serious cultural issue. Trump makes it funny, but the criminal mutilation of young people has got to be stopped. And I’m sure it is happening in Alaska as it is happening in Nebraska.

Ampersand said...

Trump's personal appearances are a weird mix of Grateful Dead concert and Art Linkletter Show.

Scott Adams says "to Rupar" means to take out of context.

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

It's all about Trump.

RideSpaceMountain said...

Trump was not 'the greatest president we've ever had'. I like Trump, but sorry Sarah, not even remotely close. He could've been awesome if he'd not been mercilessly mired and slowed by the deep state (and figured out a way to destroy it while slogging through the mud) and had a second term and realized that he didn't need to tweet about every damn thing, but that didn't happen.

The greatest president we've ever had was and still is Abraham Lincoln, another Republican. There will be another president to equal Lincoln someday but that will require civil war v2.0 and a victory (without one there will be no more presidents).

Also, Aaron Rupar had gay face and looks like he enjoys getting fucked by strangers in public parks. Change my mind.

MikeD said...

One of many from the Urban Dictionary: rupar
To purposely mislead. To intentionally and grossly mischaracterize a statement and/or video.

I agree with crapping all over the hack press... but I want sharper precision stabs. Death blows.

That is not it.

Temujin said...

Aaron Rupar is in the Trump business. Some day he's going to need to get a job.

Quaestor said...

Trump isn't transphobic. (May the gods of sane linguistics forgive me for even typing that nonsensical concatenation.) He doesn't fear men with their dicks cut off and turned inside out, or women with their vaginas sewn shut and a hotdog sewn in its place. Maybe he's as contemptuous of self-deluding liars as is Aaron Rupar.

Mary Beth said...

He is very entertaining.

Iman said...

I don’t read anything from Aaron Rupar, based on his past half-truths and general clownish behavior.

pacwest said...

Love him or hate him ya gotta love 'im. PT Barnum had nothing on Trump. Truly the Greatest Showman on Earth.

Gunner said...

Trump really should have made Palin an advisor or something. It might have seriously driven his opponents to suicide.

rcocean said...

Aaron Rupar looks like a real winner. If you think a winner is a snarky left-wing Gay guy who lives in the Bronx. I'd hate to see what he has on computer. And I hope trump IS Transphobic. Because the transgender thing is the most bizarre thing the power elite has ever tried to push on the American public.

Anyway, who really cares? If Trump was a leftist, all the people who hate Trump would be singing his praises Unlike the Right, the Left-liberals are results oriented. They decide what position gets them power, and then attack anyone who stands in their way. Since Trump is their biggest obstacle, its non-stop vicious attacks. but hunter Biden and Joe Biden are defended.

Its all fake and all leftwing propaganda designed to keep people Rupar likes in power.

gspencer said...

Aaron Rupar, Trump has 5 kids, each one successful at their respective stations in life.

Corrupt Joe Biden, who became rich through abuse of a public office and shakedowns, has 4 kids. Two are dead, one tragically, one from illness. Of the remaining two, one is, simply stated, despicable. The other is honing her own shakedown skills.

Which one is the better father is obvious.

Two-eyed Jack said...

Perhaps the word everyone is searching for in place of transphobic is "transopprobrious."

Original Mike said...

When I saw this post I thought "Inga bait". And so it was.

Beasts of England said...

Crude transphobia? Rupar is a biology denier.

pacwest said...

Do Americans really want this clown to be president again?

Of course not! I would much rather have high inflation, an invasion at our southern border, rampant criminality, being in a proxy war with Russia, and some freak convincing my grandchildren they are racist and need to defile their reproductive organs. That's the ticket.

Jokah Macpherson said...

Can Sarah Palin name all of the presidents?

Hard to claim one is the best if you don't know who you're comparing them against.

Achilles said...

Inga said...

As for Sarah Palin, I sure didn’t miss her voice. My ears hurt. She and her strange family (excluding little Trig, he’s a sweet innocent) what a bunch of yahoos.

This person voted for and supports the Biden Crime Family.

Wants you to know the Palin's are yahoos.

Inga's entire world is built off of lies.

Dave64 said...

Rupar is another one of those Lefty Journos who would not have a job if there was no Donald Trump!

Palin and Trump. Cue the lunatics.

I see Ann's brain trust has swung into action. I agree with Achilles.

farmgirl said...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzZWU4nVxM8

An interview w/Rupar by maybe a college student? Idk- I was curious about him in the context of “change my mind”.

Michael K said...

Sarah Palin was a sort of John the Baptist for Trump as she warned the gentry liberals that the average person was tired of their bullshit. The gentry liberals like Peggy Noonan hated her. Peggy had no more distinguished background than Palin but she was one of the class that used to be called "social climbing."

fizzymagic said...

ADDED: Rupar has some more good clips

Was that on purpose? Because clipping videos out of context is called "ruparing" and is what he is famous for.

traditionalguy said...

DJT communicates better than any President since JFK and Reagan. But then, I am an intelligent American citizen addicted to seeking truth in the age of propaganda wars. And DJT is trustworthy. His Ty Cobb approach to beating the 24/7 storm of media lies does not offend me one bit. It impresses me that there is hope for reality again.

Rupar reeks of Trumpphobia.

As opposed to the Biden, Gore, Edwards, The Kennedys, Pelosi, etc.?

Palin was the proto-Trump: an outsider figure who drove the left into insanity and whom the GOP establishment hated and sabotaged.

Russian Collusion Truther and Hillary Hoax Dossier Dead Ender Inga: "As for Sarah Palin, I sure didn’t miss her voice. My ears hurt. She and her strange family (excluding little Trig, he’s a sweet innocent) what a bunch of yahoos."

Recall Inga and her sicko friends literally claimed Trig was not Sarah Palin's child and Inga has also declared as perfectly "normal" Joe Biden showering with his daughter and Hunter Biden abusing underage trafficked Chinese and Russian girl prostitutes while on crack and filming himself.

This causes actual normal people to ask our lunatic lefty commenter Inga: Just what the heck is wrong with you?

Buckwheathikes said...

Trump was not 'the greatest president we've ever had'. I like Trump, but sorry Sarah, not even remotely close

The problem with Donald Trump is that he doesn't understand how to wield power.

By that I mean he doesn't understand a simple concept like: Do it to them before they do it to you - and buddy you better believe they're going to do it to you.

He also has little strategic smarts. How many of his telephone calls with world leaders were "leaked" to the NY Times (always in the most damning way, of course). At what point do you clear the room so that these leaks stop? Why sit in a bugged White House Oval Office? You gotta surround yourself with people who'd cut off their own arms if you needed a hand and get everybody else out of the White House.

Why in the world did he not fire James Comey on Day 1? For not arresting Hillary Clinton? I mean, come on bro ... wise up. Trump campaigned on the promise to do the job himself ... then inexplicably didn't prosecute her for her crimes. Ship her straight to Gitmo, bro. And hold the trial there.

Trump had the potential to be great. He didn't have the smarts to do it and he was out-maneuvered at every turn. Which is why I don't want him back as President. He was a really crappy president.

Bill589 said...

The two politicians that piss off our Republic's #1 enemy, the RINO/Dem UniParty, the most are Sarah Palin and Donald Trump. Whatever else anyone thinks about them, these two clearly have the same enemies we patriots have.

Biff said...

I thought the way Trump described Lia Thomas as a "person with a man's body" to be an interesting way of framing trans-athletic competition.

Compare that with the de-humanizing way that activists like to refer to "black bodies."

Mr. T. said...

You are now quoting Aaron Rupar as a legitimate journalist now?

Will it be Sabrina Erdely next week?

Lilly, a dog said...

I didn't know who this Rupar fellow was, but I'll go with RideSpaceMountain's description because it made me laugh.

tim in vermont said...

Here is a picture of Joe Biden leering at the same daughter of his who wrote that diary entry.

https://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/385992460#p386000711

Remember when he kissed is young grandson right on the mouth like a lover and they told us that it was OK because it was "family"? The Biden family would get run out of a trailer park in most of America.

Lurker21 said...

I was never a Palin fan, but a case could be made that Trump was the best president of the millennium, maybe even the best president in Palin's lifetime (born 1964). Certainly, he was far from the worst.

I didn't know who Aaron Rupar was until last week. I found out that he's a guy who watches Fox News for a living and tweets snarkily about it and calls his tweeting "journalism." But please, don't turn this into another "Everyone I hate is gay" site. Heaven knows there are enough of those already.

Inga said...

Drago is the Rupar of Althouse.

h said...

I watched the video that promised, "Here's where the transphobia kicks in." I doubt if Democrats or progressives can make a lot of headway pointing to these opinions about trans participation in women's sports and getting voters to say, "I'll vote for Dems because I'm so horrified at this kind of bigotry."

ConradBibby said...

I find it sad and distressing that so many people are anti-Trump based on how he talks and other aspects of his personal style. IIRC, Biden even said during one of the debates something like, "Think about how nice it would be not to hear his voice every day." Although I completely understand why a lot of people don't like how Trump presents himself, if the choice is between a "clown" whose policies are good for the country vs. an elegant, dignified-looking president whose woke/marxist policies will lead us the way of Venezuela and Sri Lanka, I'll take the damn clown every day. But, clearly, a lot of dems and some republicans too seem to feel that the crease in the pants should be the decisive factor.

(Of course, in the case of Trump v. Biden, the choice isn't exactly "clown" vs. someone who looks and sounds like Gregory Peck. It's, at worse, "clown" v. doddering old doofus.)

Beasts of England said...

#PedoPeter is trending. Inga must be so proud!!

mikee said...

A large number of Americans hate Trump, and hate Palin. Imagine their apoplexy over a competent Republican president with the support of the party and half the country.

I, for one, look forward to the spluttering of the flibbertigibbet Left should DeSantis, for example, run for President with say, Abbot as VP.

Bruce Hayden said...

This mutual admiration society means that Palm will almost assuredly be the Congress Representative from AK, giving her, again, a national pulpit. One thing that Trump would have in his second term is a cadre of fervent supporters in the House. Maybe not a majority of the Republican caucus, but significant enough that he and they won’t be able to be ignored. It’s not just in the House - he has built this up with a lot of state officials too but most significantly in the House, and he has done that by supporting candidates, and gotten either nominated or elected. It’s been amazing how well it has worked esp this year.

Paul Ryan had the potential to be the most transformative, and most powerful, Speaker in a century, and he blew it. McCarthy may very well end up Speaker in 2025 when Trump is sworn in, with a GOP senate as well. If McCarthy is smart, he won't follow Ryan's example. Instead, he'll have bills lined up on day 1 to push through every GOP promise in the past forty years. Dismantle the administrative state, restrain executive powers, and lock in deregulation so that it's difficult for the Dems to push everything back to the left.

Original Mike said...

I have never heard of this Rupar fellow. Usually when I don't know much about a public figure I've at least heard of them. But not in this case.

Crazy World said...

These comments are hilarious, love it.
rupar thing is a freak but great videos. Go Sarah and Donald, this shit show country needs you now. FJB and Hunter

The Godfather said...

At 7:27pm, Mikee endorses a DeSantis-Abbott ticket in 2024. YES!!! Trump is great at his rallies, but he is too straight forward to succeed as President against the "permanent government". I'm not sure he understands it even now.

But a DeSantis-Abbott Presidency will command a substantial majority in Congress for at least two years. Pres. DeSantis will know how to deal with a troublesome Republican majority in Congress. If the 2026 mid-terms go south (they may NOT), DeSantis can roll with the punches. And unlike a Trump 2024 President, he won't be a lame duck.

Mr. Trump: Support your Governor for President! Be the hero we need!

Drago said...

jim5301: "Don't forget everyone to not tune in to the Jan 6 hearing on Tuesday so that you will be able to provide thoughtful, critical analysis on Wednesday."

LOL!

"thoughtful, critical analysis" used in the sentence as the Soviet "Jan 6 hearing"!

Yep and Paul Ryan’s shitty reaction perfectly encapsulated the GOPe’s rejection of Trump and refusal to work together towards the goals in the MAGA agenda.

DeSantis should have less of a squish than Abbott. But maybe Abbott is great at attending funerals.

He could pivot, but his ego is stuck on this.

Original Mike: "I have never heard of this Rupar fellow."

Rupar is one of the biggest lefty media hacks there is...and that's saying something.

His name has been Verb-ized to describe when some clear deceptive editing/pure outright lying has occurred to damage a republican/conservative. It's known as being "Rupar-ed".

Naturally, he is one of gadfly's most bestest lefty heroes....because that's what all "true conservatives" do....they find the biggest lefty fake-journalist hack and go ga-ga over them.

Drago said...

Mr Wibble: "Paul Ryan had the potential to be the most transformative, and most powerful, Speaker in a century, and he blew it."

Ryan didn't "blow" anything. Ryan was an establishment hack who was aligned with all the democratical major long range objectives and Ryan delivered on that alignment for his democratical pals.

Ryan played a critical role in sidelining and obstructing any and all congresspersons who wanted to get to the bottom of the democratical/intel/law enforcement coup against Trump. And he did it knowingly, happily, joyfully.

And Ryan has been handsomely rewarded for his efforts and he spends most of his time now attempting to turn Fox News into MSNBC as a member of the Board.

Bunkypotatohead said...

It's the sneering condescension that galls. Some fag-hag whose biggest achievement is to make his own name synonymous with the word liar, complaining about the family life of the deplorables.

He'll be dead of monkey pox or aids in a few years and leave noone and nothing behind. And the world will be a better place.

What exactly is "transphobia"? How can you tell that a person is not transphobic? Is it transphobic to think that women have vaginas?

can one believe body-positivity and be dysmorphic?
can one be secure in own sex identity and therefore trans-phobic?

" The question for Americans, are you better off now or 2 years ago? Vote accordingly."

Two years ago most of us weren't able to leave our homes while Trump was running around blabbering about "And it is dying out. The numbers are starting to get very good."

In July 2020, millions had lost jobs and income, countless firms—large and small—had been pushed to the edge of bankruptcy and beyond.
Right -vote accordingly.

Saint Croix said...

I still think Sarah Palin had a good chance to be president if she ran in 2012.

She was so popular. Arena crowds. What kind of vice president has ever gotten arena crowds?

The left was terrified of her. The media assassinated her. My feeling at the time was that she chose not to run for office because she made an internal vote that her family was more important to her.

The media attacked her family, her husband and her children. It was awful.

I think she made the wrong choice.

Her husband divorced her anyway, in part because they had no privacy anymore, and the media was digging into her sexual past.

I think she would have (easily) defeating Mitt Romney for the nomination. That was a weak nominee. Republicans do great when they nominate a hated right-winger. When they nominate a moderate Republican they typically lose.

The hate campaign against Mitt Romney was ridiculous. "You put your dog on top of your car!" Running against a guy who ate a dog. And he couldn't manage to make a joke about that. Useless. If he called Obama "Mr. Ate-a-Dog" he would have run away with it. He didn't want to be called racist so no attacks on Obama. The spine of a jellyfish.

Saint Croix said...

Trump's willingness to mock other people made him an unusual Republican. You can imagine him attacking the other presidents in history.

Washington: "Slave-owner. And look at his teeth, they're a mess."

Jefferson: "Says we're all equal but he still has slaves!"

Lincoln: "You're so ugly! I feel like his beard is trying to cover up 16 moles. And what is with that hat?"

Roosevelt: "I can run faster than that guy. You ever see him run? Sitting in that chair all the time. He is so lazy! I can run, vote for me!"

Saint Croix said...

Don't forget everyone to not tune in to the Jan 6 hearing on Tuesday

ha ha

I was wondering if that damn thing was still on the air.

It's the worst soap opera in the world.

I say worst because as the season(!) drags on the characters get more and more second-rate.

"I heard somebody say the president tried to grab the wheel of the car."

If a soap opera character said that, they would fire all the writers.

I think they're going to run that thing until they run out of Trump-hatred. Which, you know, might be a while.

They'll end up with, "And then he put his dog on the roof of his car!"

Saint Croix said...

I think Palin has fine political instincts, by the way.

Somehow this leads to her talking about media coverage of her kids and how much Trump "cared about family" and supported "a culture of life and a culture of love."

These are pro-life code words, by the way. She's talking to pro-lifers. My understanding is that the Republican party has some of those.

I didn't vote for Trump in 2016 -- I voted for the Libertarian pothead -- precisely because I didn't believe him when he said he was pro-life now.

I was too cynical. Trump was easily the most pro-life president we've ever had.

This is ironic because he doesn't care about the issue much at all (in my opinion).

But Trump believes in dancing with the person who took you to the dance.

Seems obvious, right?

So he gave a speech to the Walk of Life. How many of our other alleged pro-life presidents did that? Zero, zero, and zero.

Trump also picked judicial nominees from his list. (I didn't think he would do that).

And, boom, this non-lawyer put together a Supreme Court that overturned Roe v. Wade.

wendybar said...

These same idiots think Joe Biden is a great President, and that Kamala was picked because of her smarts...(she wasn't. She was picked ONLY because she was a woman of color...same as why Browne Jackson was picked)

They don't care that America is in the shitter, because at least they got TRUMMMMPPPPPby cheating.

Saint Croix said...

I think it was Palin's sexuality that excited the right and unhinged the left.

She was beautiful when she was young.

Analogous to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Although I doubt very much that AOC could fill stadiums. That stadium thing was amazing.

But sexuality affects people, particularly low-information voters. Plenty of people voted for the Kennedys because of sexuality, in my opinion.

It will be interesting to see if Palin is still super-popular when she is an old woman.

She's aging out of it now.

It's not PC to say this, but sex and sex appeal is for the young. There's a biological reason for that -- reproduction is for the young.

I suspect Palin will win in the House. That would be great.

I would pay money to see a Palin-AOC catfight. You know, for charity? I am reasonably certain Palin would knock the shit out of her. Despite the age differences. Meat-eater vs. vegetarian? That's a walk in the park. First round KO.

AMDG said...

With Trump one can embrace the healing power of the word “and” and “but”.

He had some great accomplishments but his narcissism and impulsiveness led to some poor decisions.

The MSM embarked on a four year quest to destroy him, his family, and his presidency; and his behavior between the election and the inauguration was abhorrent and should disqualify him from ever serving again.

He appears to have been a good father. He has had five kids and there doesn’t appear to be a Hunter in the bunch but his track record as a husband is somewhat short of stellar.

As of right now the best Republican ticket in 2024 would be DeSantis/Scott.

Leland said...

I never watched a Trump speech, unless I must include his performances on The Apprentice. This news strikes me of the phenomenon of journalist taking Trump’s comments literally while again his supporters take Trump seriously but not his comments.

Robert Cook said...

"These same idiots think Joe Biden is a great President, and that Kamala was picked because of her smarts...."

I would be shocked if even as much as 10% of those who voted for Biden actually think he is a good, much less "great" President. Most Biden voters were anti-Trump voters (or knee-jerk ever-four-years Democrat voters). Harris has demonstrated she is a political non-entity. Whenever she makes any public statement she reveals her utter bankruptcy of thought.
