That is a gross and unnecessary statement...like her or not, statements like that are crude and totally untrue. How about explaining yourself. What her daughter does with her life has nothing to do with this endorsement. It isn't an open market on "lets attack Sarah" This thread is about Trump and his strength in California. Which btw is no surprise.

Mmmm. It kinda does though. When influential people inflame the public sentiment by waving banners of righteousness such as "christian family values" - which has always been at the heart of Palin's cries to battle - but live in total, abject, unmistakable failure of the values they use as a social weapon - they rightly declare open season on themselves. And, in this case with the Palin's, the whole clan continues to live and flock together very publicly marketing themselves under the banner of their (failed) values.

Anyway, these aren't kids we're talking about. The sons and daughters are adults making these contradictory mistakes while all joining arms.

My point here is BOTH parties suck and are corporate whores. Look at Hilarys donor list I posted and tell me she'll fix our financial system! Bernie and Trump are outside the mainstream parties, hopefully one of the 2 gets elected. Theyre not as controlled by the financial elite.

We need to dump our two party system though and go to a parliamentary multi-party system. Its far less corruptible.

Support for Trump in California doesn't matter. California's 55 electoral votes are a dead-certain lock for Clinton or Sanders.

Likely so, but support for Trump can matter quite a lot in the primary election, with California being a winner take all state.

Once we get to the general election, California is pretty solid Democrat, but the Republicans have repeatedly shown they can win without taking California.

Support for Trump in Jefferson would work for those folks. The Perpetually Angry in CA have a home awaiting them.

The only republican nominee who won since 1968 without winning California was baby Bush.
