Confession: There are things I like about the bonkers, defanged Sarah Palin. To be fair, I’ve given some meandering speeches myself and I sometimes empathize with that part of her wackiness. Piers Morgan? I will not watch. Thanks @elk for taking one for the team.
2008: McCain picks Palin as his running mate. What’s the worst that can happen?
2021: [points at the Capitol insurrection while pointing at like half a dozen other unbelievable things that led up to it] uh…
And the Tea Party is now the stodgy old guard, and Sarah Palin still somehow has a platform >___<
