Bill Kristol, the man who "discovered" Sarah Palin, finally admits that she helped to usher in the Trump presidency.


Kristol: Palin a harbinger of GOP to come from CNBC.

Courtesy of CNBC: 

Harwood: There are people who trace a direct line from Sarah Palin to Donald Trump. It is characterized as "the dumbing down of Republican politics," an anti-intellectual movement, which is odd from you because you are an intellectual. 

Kristol: Yeah, she turned out to be a disappointment. I mean, when she was picked, she was a popular governor of Alaska who had taken on the oil companies and so forth. I thought Palin as [John] McCain's VP would be a way to almost channel a certain kind of populism into what I would say is a healthy conservatism. 

Harwood: You discovered her on a Weekly Standard cruise, right? 

Kristol: She invited Fred Barnes and me and our families over to lunch at the governor's residence there. And we were impressed by her. And she was charming. And she was different — 42-year-old governor of Alaska, kind of an exotic state. 

I had been originally for John McCain picking Joe Lieberman — a centrist play against Barack Obama. And they chose not to go that way. And then I thought, 'OK, well, why not take the gamble with Palin?' 

But I will say this. For all the alleged dumbing down, the people who ran and won in 2010 and 2012 were pretty impressive, a lot of them. The Republican ticket in 2012 was Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. Whatever again you think of them, that's not a dumbed-down ticket. 

So I thought, 'OK, Palin, they didn't win.' And I thought, 'OK, she chose to be a celebrity rather than a politician.' I didn't realize that we were going into a celebrity culture — such a celebrity culture that Trump would actually as a celebrity run and win in 2016. 

I don't think Palin really led to Trump. Was this somehow a bit of a precursor or something? I'm willing to say, 'Maybe so.'

I think that this is as close to an admission of guilt by Kristol, that his infatuation with Palin, and fan like articles on her behalf, directly led to Donald Trump's campaign, that we are likely to get.

But in fact that is exactly how all of this went down.

Make no bones about it, without a Sarah Palin there would simply NOT be a President Trump.

And both Bill Kristol and John McCain are going to have to live with that for what remains of the rest of their lives.

    “This year, the acceptance pendulum abruptly stopped and swung in the opposite direction,” GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis wrote in the 2018 report, noting the sharp contrast between this year’s results and the last three years of watching Americans report being “more comfortable with LGBTQ people and more supportive of LGBTQ issues.”

    Anyone who is impressed with Palin at any stage of the interaction is a fool. She is obviously a vicious hate mongering ninny. Her viciousness is only eclipsed by her ignorance. She is as dumb as a sack of rocks.

      So true and we "little people" in the lower 48 were on to her immediately, after our first google!!!

    3. One thing leads to another5:43 AM

      RE debate with Halcro:



      " "Andrew, I watch you at these debates with no notes, no papers, and yet when asked questions, you spout off facts, figures, and policies, and I'm amazed. But then I look out into the audience and I ask myself, 'Does any of this really matter?' " Palin said.

      While policy wonks such as Biden might cringe, it seemed to me that Palin was simply vocalizing her strength without realizing it. During the campaign, Palin's knowledge on public policy issues never matured – because it didn't have to. Her ability to fill the debate halls with her presence and her gift of the glittering generality made it possible for her to rely on populism instead of policy.

      Palin is a master of the nonanswer. She can turn a 60-second response to a query about her specific solutions to healthcare challenges into a folksy story about how she's met people on the campaign trail who face healthcare challenges. All without uttering a word about her public-policy solutions to healthcare challenges.

      In one debate, a moderator asked the candidates to name a bill the legislature had recently passed that we didn't like. I named one. Democratic candidate Tony Knowles named one. But Sarah Palin instead used her allotted time to criticize the incumbent governor, Frank Murkowski. Asked to name a bill we did like, the same pattern emerged: Palin didn't name a bill."


      https://www.csmonitor.com/Commentary/Opinion/2008/1001/p09s01-coop.html

      Also too kinda Trumplike:

      " Anchorage, Alaska — When he faces off against Sarah Palin Thursday night, Joe Biden will have his hands full.

      I should know. I've debated Governor Palin more than two dozen times. And she's a master, not of facts, figures, or insightful policy recommendations, but at the fine art of the nonanswer, the glittering generality. Against such charms there is little Senator Biden, or anyone, can do."

      https://www.csmonitor.com/Commentary/Opinion/2008/1001/p09s01-coop.html

      It's not ever a "debate" for a politician like Palin or Trump or any TeaParty Republican.

    I think without Palin there still would be a decent chance of Trump running and winning. The fact that a charming and very capable black man was president for eight years also led to Trump, though it's certainly not Mr Obama's "fault" for that. The fact that America is still a deeply racist country is to blame.

      Trump was elected because he's the very opposite of President Obama. Trump is ignorant, vulgar, bigoted, smug, offensive, inarticulate, fat, & hideous. Remember his campaign slogan was Make American Great Again. Code for make America a white-President country again.

      Sarah Palin ushered in nothing. The Republican party has long been full of ignorant rubes. A recent major example is Dubya, but the list is endless.

      As dumb Repubs go, Sarah Palin wasn't even a very successful one. An undeserved opportunity landed in her lap, and she threw it away with both hands.

    He doubts she is directly related to his rise. But the tea party pushing for a non status quo congress definitely did. And that is needed because even longtime Democrats are not helping. But that’s giving Palin too much credit for a much bigger movement. She just wants Congress to stop wasting time and money, encourage personal financial responsibility, basically what every sane person wants. A government that works without frills. I guarantee she’s a little disheartened with trumps frills. But she clearly agrees with the democrats who were livid their party chose Hillary , who is the perfect example of everything wrong with government.

    Sarah hates celebrity culture and “fake” and has also clearly loved any opportunity in the past to take “famous” people out to do fun, rustic things she grew up doing and relates to most.

    I don’t know Griff, I think SP was already feeling pretty self important by that time, I feel she would have found any way to break into “show biz”. I think she was thoroughly misunderstood by these national power brokers, as by this point in her governorship she was already engaging in some pretty petty and ludicrous spats and dirty dealings. It was already happening, but was easy to cover up during the selection process. I do think the vetting process wasn’t particularly thorough, or they’d have uncovered her pettiness and fundamental lack of knowledge and realized how intemperate a candidate she’d become.

    Some argue they did see all this and cynically didn’t care, but I think she used her charms, the same charms that got her elected as Gov. despite her true lack of depth, to snow them.
    Her problem was she couldn’t hold up to scrutiny once she was on the national stage.

    Trump is a megalomaniac on a whole other scale, in my opinion. He possessed both money and power and was able to use those to float above the law, and social norms, to steal the presidency from the politicians.

    Both these persons were/ are phenomenons that will likely be the topic of study and debate far into the future. They both rose to power by lying, stealing, and repeating their populist anti intellectualism until they’d convinced enough people to vote them in. The trouble for them both was/is how to actually govern once on the inside. That’s why DJT still lives in campaign mode, he doesn’t know what to do now. I’d feel sorry for him but then I remember how hard he tries to keep us and the world hostage to his insanity and at odds with one another. I hope they both live miserable lives until their last breaths.

    "For eight years they watched you relentlessly demonize a black President; a man faithfully married for 26 years; a doting father and husband without a hint of moral scandal or the slightest whiff of infidelity.

    They watched you deny his personal faith convictions, argue his birthplace, and assail his character—all without cause or evidence. They saw you brandish Scriptures to malign him and use the laziest of racial stereotypes in criticizing him.

    And through it all, White Evangelicals—you never once suggested that God placed him where he was, "
    "today, you openly give a “mulligan” to a white Republican man so riddled with depravity, so littered with extramarital affairs, so unapologetically vile, with such a vast resume of moral filth—that the mind boggles."
    "With him, you see only Providence."
    "They see that pigmentation and party are your sole deities.
    They see that you aren’t interested in perpetuating the love of God or emulating the heart of Jesus.
    They see that you aren’t burdened to love the least, or to be agents of compassion, or to care for your Muslim, gay, African, female, or poor neighbors as yourself.
    They see that all you’re really interested in doing, is making a God in your own ivory image and demanding that the world bow down to it.
    They recognize this all about white, Republican Jesus—not dark-skinned Jesus of Nazareth."
    "You’ve lost any moral high ground or spiritual authority with a generation.

      'NOTE4/ The #Trumplandia conspiracy must be investigated. Giuliani/Prince confessed to its particulars on audio/video, and Flynn/Don Jr. participated in it via social media
      (note: Don later tried to erase his tweet).'

    I am saddened but not surprised that this year, the #DoomsdayClock has been moved to 2 minutes to midnight, the closest it has ever been set towards global midnight and the first time it has been at that time since 1953 #turnbackthedoomsdayclock

    "O’Rourke has pledged not to take any money from PACs — not just corporate PACs, but also grassroots fundraising PACs, such as End Citizens United. A spokesperson for End Citizens United told told International Business Times that it conducted the poll independently and without coordinating with O’Rourke’s campaign. Cruz, in contrast, has accepted more than $1.3 million from the PACs of corporations, according to the Center for Responsive Politics."

    OT-FYI"Aside from North Korea's arsenal of nuclear weapons and ICBMs, the secretive state is also believed to possess a massive stockpile of convention and chemical weapons, the latter of which Pyongyang has denied. These factors have led a number of analysts to warn about an enormous death toll and even a potential loss for invading U.S. forces.

    Neller has previously addressed the prospect of a war with North Korea, telling soldiers that it would be "Game of Thrones-like," referring to the popular HBO fantasy series involving warring clans in a fictional, mystical universe, Military.com reported earlier this month. He urged troops to prepare because "the fight never goes the way you think it's going to go," even though the U.S. had "certain capabilities" that North Korean forces lacked.

    Last month, he told U.S. Marines stationed in Norway to be ready for a " big-ass fight," but did not specify who the enemy would be."

    Reading between Kristol's lines (and it's something I have thought too):

    I can't believe there were tht many really stupid people in Alaska that she could have gotten elected if there weren't soemthign there - political shrewdness, hidden intellect, SOMETHING.

    When it came to T.Rump. many peopel also naively trusted their fellow citizens not to let their racism lead to this self-harm. Our fellow citizens wouldn't really be that stupid, Would they?
    They were.

    Thanks, Orange Shitgibbon. Never agian will I trust my fellow American citizen.

    When Bill had dinner with Sarah at the Governor mansion he was very impressed with her unbuttoned blouse and push up bra.

    She became his favorite when she reached under the table and gave him a hand job during desert.

    Now you know why she was his pick for VP.

    As long as you have the alt-right, you'll have the Old Testament groupies praying for a prophet from God. Watch them, Saint Reagan sent from God, Bush sent from God, Palin sent from God, Trump sent from God.

    They're looking for a prophet, when they only need to open their New Testament and Jesus said "be DONE with that!" Sermon On The Mount Matthew 12. Will they listen? Hell NO.

    NO one has an ear to God. $arah made millions off of it, and her personal life shows just how stupid people can be to buy into that shit.

    For an "intellectual" lol , Kristol sure lacks discrimination, instinct, common sense, critical thinking, inquisitiveness or ethics. Palin was a fake, fraud, stooge stupidass from birth.

    Great! Now the woman is bragging even more! She REALLY thinks she has changed to political arena, just because the "show-watchers" paid attention. These are the same people who made "duck-fuckers" & "honey-boo molesters" popular.

    Truth is, all these Republican Males were so blown away by Palin's charisma and "sexiness" that they didn't do ANY homework on her, probably just took her at her own narcissistic word that she was highly qualified, etc. If they had bothered to call even one REPUBLICAN Alaska State Legislator, they would quickly have found out that Sarah was completely unqualified for the job of governor, and even for mayor of tiny Wasilla, that she was all "boobs and bullshit". Just goes to show that the little head often thinks for the big head when it comes to men, even powerful and educated men.
