Former President Donald Trump gave Sarah palin his “Complete and Total endorsement” for Congress.
Trump issued a statement Sunday, saying, “Wonderful patriot Sarah palin of Alaska just announced that she is running for Congress, and that means there will be a true America First fighter on the ballot to replace the late and legendary Congressman Don Young.”
He continued, “Sarah shocked many when she endorsed me very early in 2016, and we won big. Now, it’s my turn! Sarah has been a champion for Alaska values, Alaska energy, Alaska jobs, and the great people of Alaska.”
The former president explained Palin was “one of the most popular Governors because she stood up to corruption in both State Government and the Fake News Media.”
His statement goes on, “Sarah lifted the McCain presidential campaign out of the dumps despite the fact that she had to endure some very evil, stupid, and jealous people within the campaign itself. They were out to destroy her, but she didn’t let that happen.”
Calling Palin “tough and smart,” Trump added, “I am proud to give her my Complete and Total Endorsement, and encourage all Republicans to unite behind this wonderful person and her campaign to put America First!”

Palin announced she is running for Congress on Friday.
“Public service is a calling, and I would be honored to represent the men and women of Alaska in Congress, just as Rep. Young did for 49 years. I realize that I have very big shoes to fill, and I plan to honor Rep. Young’s legacy by offering myself up in the name of service to the state he loved and fought for,” Palin in a statement.
Late Rep. Don Young died on March 18 and served for close to 50 years.
In January 2016, Palin endorsed Trump for president.
She said to the crowd in Ames, Iowa, “He is from the private sector, not a politician. Can I get a Hallelujah?”
Palin added, “Are you ready for a commander in chief who will let our warriors do their job and kick ISIS’s a**?”
