Former GOP strategist Steve Schmidt slams Sarah Palin as 'unwell'

We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
Former Republican strategist Steve Schmidt on Sunday laced into former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, blasting her as a "degenerate liar" who should not be afforded the opportunity to once again hold "a position of public trust."


In a Twitter thread, Schmidt, who was a senior campaign strategist and advisor to McCain during the senator's unsuccessful 2008 presidential bid and pushed Palin as a running mate for the GOP nominee, launched a litany of attacks on the ex-governor.

"When the campaign ended I refused to let Sarah Palin speak," Schmidt wrote of the concession speech that he put into motion for McCain to offer on election night in Arizona. "I placed the phone call to Barack Obama for the concession and did everything I could to make sure a beautiful speech wasn't disgraced by the nut ball from Alaska."


He continued: "Palin understood the party of personal responsibility was dead and replaced by a whining victim cult of losers who routinely lied and blamed others for their failings. Palin went on the attack after the campaign. You see, it wasn't that she was ignorant and unprepared. It wasn't that she was a pathological liar who became intoxicated by fame and grievance. She was a victim!"

"John McCain's last words to Palin on election night were a warning," the former advisor wrote. "He said don't be pulled in 'by the extremists like Limbaugh.' It was too late and he knew it."

As an ardent supporter of the Globalist Democrat-Lite lying thief, McCain, it is not surprising that this posturing propagandist hated Palin.

It's people like Schmidt that cost McCain the election...
 
Lotta guilt over launching a big following for Palin, there.

Understandable.

That was the first moment deplorables got their foot in the Republican door as a potential significant voting bloc.

They had been in the party since at least Reagan

We all saw that in her announcement that she was quitting being the governor of Alaska because everyone was just too mean to her, none of the multitude of ethics complaints filed against her were warranted, and she was NOT petty, vindictive, and lazy as hell. :rolleyes:

Then you know little, he was the one that suggested McCain choose her for VP. It was only after dealing with her during the campaign, that he came to realize they made a huge mistake. She had not been properly vetted. Through personal experience, he came to know Palin and that is why he was able to make the conclusion that she is a liar.

I remember the stories of the moment theyram went to Alaska and started prepping her to join the campaign


People came back from Alaska in shock because “she knows nothing”

That was the quote


She had no idea of any of the issues in ANY depth


She didn’t even know how government was actually structured or how it works

Always thought of her as a female version of #TRE45ON. Unintelligent but clever, incurious, phony as hell, all hat no cattle.

Yeap a grifter


I started a thread about it when they cheered her as the choice here back in the day


I told them they just made running as a Republican a money making Stunt for evil people



Mark another one up to me being correct
 
McCain disqualified himself with me when he picked Palin. It would be interesting to know how much Steve Schmidt had to do with that happening. No, I dont care what he says about her now.
