Steve Benen @ Maddowblog<\/strong><\/em> covers Sarah Palin’s outrage<\/a> that Speaker of the House Paul Ryan hasn’t immediately endorsed Donald Trump for the GOP Presidential nomination:<\/p>\n

The Alaska Republican added yesterday that she\u2019s throwing her support behind Trump supporter Paul Nehlen, who\u2019s taking on Ryan in a Wisconsin primary.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, I will do whatever I can for Paul Nehlen,\u201d Palin said. \u201cThis man is a hard working guy, so in touch with the people. Paul Ryan and his ilk, their problem is they have become so disconnected from the people whom they are elected to represent \u2026 they feel so threatened at this point that their power, their prestige, their purse will be adversely affected by the change that is coming with Trump and someone like Paul Nehlen that they\u2019re not thinking straight right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

A few hours later, Palin posted<\/a> a Facebook message, which she appears to have written herself: \u201cRep. Paul Ryan abandoned the district he was to represent as special interests dictated his legislative priorities. Without ever having a real job outside of politics, it seems he disconnected himself from the people, thus easily disrespected the will of the people. It\u2019s time for a change.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Doesn’t the former Alaskan half-term governor realize just how much of her own words\u00a0applies to her?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
