I'll admit it -- when this speculation began mounting yesterday, I wasn't remotely sold on the idea that Palin was poised jump aboard the Trump Train when so many influential figures within the conservative talk radio constellation are at long last blasting The Donald and rallying to Cruz. The Palin speculation seemed even less plausible when this rumor leaked:
Multiple little birdies tell me Jerry Falwell, Jr. is going to endorse Trump for president and come to Iowa with him tomorrow. Steve Deace (@SteveDeaceShow) January 18, 2016
Falwell bestowed a fulsome introduction upon Donald "Two Corinthians" Trump just yesterday -- much to the dismay of many in the evangelical community -- so Deace's report made sense. Surely that's the big announcement and "special guest" Trump's been pumping on social media, right? Not so fast, my friends:
Oh my. The jet is headed to Ames, then hopping over to Tulsa? Exactly mirroring Trump's campaign itinerary? Dude. This might actually be happening. And what a splash it would make less than two weeks before Iowa. Should Palin's endorsement both come to fruition (there have been cluesalong the way), and push Trump over the top, emotionalist nationalistic populism will have officially supplanted principled, policy-driven, limited-government conservatism as the currently dominant strain within the American right-wing. I'll leave you with this, because why not at this point?
Cruz went to the floor of the Senate to publically call McConnell a liar . Cruz said that his vote for tpa was cast on the basis that McConnell assured him there was not a deal made with the Democrats to support the Ex-Im bank renewal. But McConnell made a separate deal with the emperor ,and the Ex-Im was added to the highway bill . Cruz has taken on the Washington establishment ,often by himself in the hall of the Senate .
Trump chastised Cruz for calling McConnell a liar .
Ethanol subsidies is a big deal . Cruz won't compromise his principles even if it may cost him the Iowa caucus .Trump on the other hand has no principles and is a corporatist who favors government subsidies at the tax payer expense to corporate interests.
You fear Trump like that piece of shit Eric Cantor
Unfortunately I do think that if there were to be a Trump administration the casualty would likely be trade, said Eric Cantor, a former Republican House Majority Leader and now vice chairman of Moelis & Company. Thats a very serious prospect for the world.

Cantor is right in this case . The last businessman who became President ;and signed off on a trade war was Herbert Hoover . He did that right before the market crashed and the Great Depression began.

You should learn history.
The Federal reserve caused the market crash. By expanding then contracting the money supply.
You are talking New Deal Propaganda. Roosevelt was a liberal not a conservative.
I know history very well . Before the market crash there was protectionism . The stock market crash was caused by the increasing likelihood that the Smoot- Hawley tariff would pass (Hoover did not sign it until 1930 .It was winding it's way through committee long before eventual passage in June 1930 .The markets reacted to the likelyhood of the bill being passed and the subsequent trade wars ).
You are talking New Deal Propaganda. Roosevelt was a liberal not a conservative That was businessman President Hoover who signed off on the bill. Much of the causes of the Depression were 'progressive' policies that Hoover intiated after the crash .
The crash was in 1929 and Roosevelt did not become President until 1933. What Roosevelt did in the 'New Deal ' was just a double down on the socialist /statist polices that Hoover iniated in reaction to the Depression.
Yes of course the Fed monitary policy had a role in it too just like it had in the crash in 2009 ;and the recent downturn in the markets .
