Trump and Palin, Together At Last?

Last month, shortly after Donald Trump announced he was running for president, I published a half-in-jest post about Sarah Palin positioning herself to be his V.P.

what eye thynk:  Apparently the joke is on me.  

On Monday, The Donald talked to Kevin Scholla, host of The Palin Update.  (Why such a radio show would exist defies all logic; but it is a fact that the show is part of the weekly programming on Mama Grizzly Radio.  Maybe, after being canned by Fox--again--Mr. Scholla was the only one hiring?)

Anyway, Mama Grizzly host Scholla--who seems to be unaware that La Palin bailed as Alaska governor before her first term was over--asked top Republican candidate for president Trump if he could see himself "picking up the phone, giving the governor a call and picking her brain on some things, or perhaps having her along in some official capacity."

And here's the joke-is-on-me part:  Trump responded, "I'd love that.  Because she really is somebody who knows what's happening and she'as a special person.  She's really a special person and I think people know that... Everybody loves her.  (Voters) like the Sarah Palin kind of strength.  You just don't see very much of it anymore."

To which I would add: Thank, God.
