The Morning Joe crew were visibly horrified at Sarah Palin’s speech for Donald Trump last Friday night, when she spoke on behalf of the Donald at the Milwaukee County GOP’s fundraising dinner.
The speech came as Wisconsin is turning into the Republican establishment’s major stand against Trump, with Gov. Scott Walker endorsing Ted Cruz, as well as the state’s right-wing talk radio hosts speaking out vociferously against Trump.
And in that environment, Palin and her usual “word salad” (as Joe and company referred to it) didn’t get their usual cheering crowd. Instead, it was just the half-term governor, a microphone — and crushing silence.
“Can I ask you,” Joe Scarborough asked of John Heilemann, who had actually been there for the event, “halfway through her speech did you ask if you had stumbled into some bad acid?”
Heilemann responded: “Well the question was, ‘Who has taken the bad acid?'”
Actually I think that if the audience had been on acid this speech might well have made perfect sense.
After covering this speech, and the one that came after it, I really thought I would be done talking about it. However watching this panel of pundits attempting to wrap their minds around what they were seeing was just too good not to share.
