I don't like Palin, but what did she say that is wrong?
Learn to take some honest criticism. When Rand Paul expressed concerns about some of Trumps appointees, a lot of Trump supporters went nuts too. Both have legitimate concerns and neither have been hostile to Trump at all.
She is definitely right in this case, one of the only times I've agreed with anything she has said.
Politico? Haha. They have been thoroughly discredited.
This is what Palin really said......
I am ecstatic for Carrier employees! Their bosses just decided to keep shop onshore. What a relief for hundreds of workers. Merry Christmas Indiana!
We don’t yet know terms of the public/private deal that was cut to make the company stay, but let’s hope every business is equally incentivized to keep Americans working in America.
...
Gotta’ have faith the Trump team knows all this. And I’ll be the first to acknowledge concerns over a deal cut by leveraging taxpayer interests to make a manufacturer stay put are unfounded – once terms are made public.
People may as well get it through their heads , it's not going to be politics as usual . Trump is going to do things his way instead of following the failed policies of either party .
Carrier would've likely had a PR disaster on their hands if they didn't play along, but give some credit to Trump/Pence for seeing an opportunity and exploiting it. The tax savings don't come close to matching the cost savings Carrier would've gotten by shifting all of the planned positions to Mexico. This is assuming that the planned move wasn't smoke and mirrors. This is an extremely small economic victory but a fairly large PR one for the Donald. The president/governor can't play fireman every time a company plans on leaving or closing down/moving a plant; they need to create an environment that mitigates those possibilities in the first place.

"Foundational to our exceptional nation’s sacred private property rights, a business must have freedom to locate where it wishes. In a free market, if a business makes a mistake (including a marketing mistake that perhaps Carrier executives made), threatening to move elsewhere claiming efficiency’s sake, then the market’s invisible hand punishes. Thankfully, that same hand rewards, based on good business decisions.
But this time-tested truth assumes we’re operating on a level playing field.
When government steps in arbitrarily with individual subsidies, favoring one business over others, it sets inconsistent, unfair, illogical precedent. Meanwhile, the invisible hand that best orchestrates a free people’s free enterprise system gets amputated. Then, special interests creep in and manipulate markets. Republicans oppose this, remember? Instead, we support competition on a level playing field, remember? Because we know special interest crony capitalism is one big fail."
They have been thoroughly discredited as a news source. They are afterall the same "news" organization who helped Hillary cheat at the elections.
And what are the "credible" news sources? Breitbart? Alex Jones/Infowars? Fox News?
Sarah Palin wrote an op-ed for a news outlet called YOUNG CONSERVATIVES. Is that not credible? Do Sarah Palin's own words not pass any credibility litmus test?

Palin didn't say that.
