Now this voice from the political graveyard tells the New York Times – who else? – that nominating Ted Cruz will mean “cataclysmic” GOP losses, questions the Texas senator’s allegiance to the Republican Party and says “nobody likes him” in Washington. Palin referred to the “elephant in the room” and what her family was going through “personally” before suggesting that post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was to blame.
“It’s like being shot or poisoned”. “PTSD is a very serious problem, a complicated mental health injury and I would be extremely reluctant to blame any one person in particular”.
He was arrested on Monday in Wasilla, Alaska, and charged with domestic violence assault on a female, interfering with a report of domestic violence and possession of a weapon while intoxicated, according to Dan Bennett, a spokesman for the Wasilla Police Department.
Track Palin served with the US Army’s Stryker brigade, deployed to Iraq for a year in 2008.
Lemon asked the GOP presidential hopeful if it was “fair to link the president with her son’s issues”.
“My son, like so many others, they come back a bit different”, Palin said.
Palin spoke on Wednesday during a rally in Tulsa and said his son, like other war veterans, came back hardened and wondering whether there is respect for them for what they sacrifice for the country.
She added later that “It’s a shame that our military personnel even have to question, have to wonder if they’re respected anymore”. Because she told me that they’re coming back, so many are coming back and they are, you know, they’re under tremendous pressure and tremendous strain. “The main reason I do is that I believe he wants more power to come to him and “he’ll take care of us all” if we just give him more power, but I’m from a limited government tradition”. “I will tell you this, that we have an election cycle that is beyond odd”, Graham declared. Palin’s endorsement has dominated headlines for the last several days and provided Trump with cover from someone who still commands influence with many conservatives.

This said, with an energetic Sarah Palin now endorsing Trump, and the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary quickly approaching, who knows what will happen.
