[BSsBrolly]

Watched this earlier today, fucking perfect.

 

[richiek]

Trevor Noah also did a number on Palin on The Daily Show.

 

[Volimar]

"First, let me just taze the part of my brain that understands sentence structure."

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

God that was embarrassing to watch. I can never take Republicans seriously.

 

[Slayer-33]

Lunacy.

How did she become governor again? It's mind boggling

 

[KarmaCow]

That was just kinda sad, it really was just mad libs using talking points from 8 years ago. Her community organizer slam makes even less sense now than it did in 2008.

 

[EdibleKnife]

What the fuck is she saying?!

 

[shadowsdarknes]

"The emperor's got no clothes on, apologizing to Bin Laden for dumping down to the bottom of the ocean" lmao

 

[SaviourMK2]

God... I just had the worst image of Sarah Palin and Ann Coulter fighting to see who will be Trump's 278th wife.

 

[shem935]

"He packs up the teleprompters, and the selfie sticks, and the greek columns and all that hopey changey stuff..."

Like right off the get go. What are you saying.

 

[redmetal86]

She's starting to remind me of that MadTV skit about Evander Holyfield on QVC.

 

[thesoapster]

That was amazing. Colbert is amazing.

 

[Byakuya769]

If you're talking about Sarah Palin in 2016, you're losing.

Why would he remove fixtures from the White House which presumably the next person in office would need?

 

[TheSadRanger]

I for one welcome our new Daemon princes of she who thirsts.

 

[Lothar]

I'd probably seriously consider voting for Trump/Palin ticket just for the comedy material. That Palin speech was hilarious.

 

[Extra Sauce]

If Sarah Palin endorses you in 2016, you're losing the presidential election.

Fixed.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

i've watched plenty of people destroy sarah palin when she's being impersonated by lisa ann

Mmmmmmm

 

[Aselith]

Even Trump was pretty over it after a minute. That grimasmile.

That's not just Sarah Palin.-
It's Sarah Palin doing Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin 

 

[JustenP88]

I think Stephen's bit was more comprehensible than whatever she said.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Fuck me. That was hard to watch. Trump was standing there like he was hoping if he didn't move she wouldn't notice him and walk away.
Murica, you sooooo cray cray.

 

[DrSlek]

Trump was all smiles

SUICIDE VESTS

Trump realizes this was a huge mistake

 

[Azriell]

Why would he remove fixtures from the White House which presumably the next person in office would need?

I was wondering that myself, maybe because Trump doesn't use them? Bat shit insanity can't be understood anyways.

 

[King Tubby]

I think Stephen's bit was more comprehensible than whatever she said.

Colbert could probably do a decent freestyle with that.

 

[Battersea Power Station]

I don't think you know what "destroys" means.

 

[the-pi-guy]

Why would he remove fixtures from the White House which presumably the next person in office would need?

It's like stealing towels out of a hotel.

Or something.

 

[Blackage]

Did anyone watch Trump's face while she was talking, even he was like "wtf is she talking about?" and then random awkward smile whenever she was done rambling.

 

[legacyzero]

Glorious

I don't think you know what "destroys" means.

See the OP

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

The look on Trump's face just gets procedurally more pained as you watch him slowly realize his mistake.

 

[Dishwalla]

What in God's name is she talking about in those clips? Did anyone at all make any sense out of all that babbling?

Back in 2008, one of the narratives that the GOP wanted to push about Obama is that he was an elitist, arrogant person who was already presuming that he would become president (it would serve as a nice contrast with the "humble war hero" narrative for McCain if they could make it stick). And so when the stage was being built in the Denver stadium, conservative commentators noticed that it was being set up rather elaborately, with Greek columns and whatnot. And of course, that fed into the desired negative narrative and so they went after him with it.

Here's an article describing the stage (not necessarily attacking him for it - just describing it):

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-politics-obama-stadium-idUSN2636979020080826

And here's a New York Post article criticizing him for it:

http://nypost.com/2008/08/28/temple-of-dem-on-mt-o-lympus/

A snippet from that article:

“It’s only appropriate that Barack Obama would descend down from the heavens and spend a little time with us mere mortals when accepting the Democratic nomination,” said Republican National Committee spokesman Danny Diaz.

And here's a picture of a part of it:

Watching it on television, the set looked great - as if he was delivering a night-time address from just outside the west wing...

 

[Incendiary]

God it boggles my mind there is actually a demographic that was roused by her speech.

Also Stephen Colbert is amazing.

 

[Squirrel Killer]

That's not just Sarah Palin.-
It's Sarah Palin doing Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin 

I ain't too proud to admit I'd pay good money to see Sarah Palin doing Tina Fey.

 

[Mediking]

The look on Trump's face just gets procedurally more pained as you watch him slowly realize his mistake.

At like 3:14 in the video... his face is like: "UH-OH!!!!!!!"

 

[Transistor]

Holy shit I'm dying here

Hmmm, okay but that was 8 years ago he's the President now so referring to Greek Columns now could only refer to those that stand at the front of the White House and what about the teleprompters? Oh fuck it, she doesn't use logic so why should we?

 

[AbsolutBro]

holy fuck what was this woman ON?

 

[DecoReturns]

Sarah Palin reminded me of that scene in FInding Nemo where Marlin is like "its like hes trying to tell me something I know it"

Also Trump looked confused/worried as well.

 

[Dai101]

"As the first black female head of the Ku Klux Klan, I would just like to say America stinks!"

? I'm not saying that it makes sense. I'm saying that's what she's clearly referring to, whether it made sense to do so or not.

 

[dab0ne]

It took on a new type of crazy for my wife just now because she could only hear the audio and didn't realize it was an edited montage lol

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Sebastian the Crab for President.

[Gordon Shumway]

It was a rough night..

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Holy shit at the rapid fire clips of stupidity at the 3 minute mark. Be careful people, we haven't had this pure Palin in a while. Don't hurt yourself thinking you can handle as much as you used to.

 

[megarockexe]

"First, let me just taze the part of my brain that understands sentence structure."

Man, that speech. With that incoherent babble, she's like a cartoon character, or self parody.
