Trump campaigns in Alaska to support Sarah Palin

Donald Trump campaigned Saturday in Alaska for Sarah Palin, the former governor of the northern American state considered by many to be a precursor of the populist and anti-elite movement which the former Republican president has championed. Sarah Palin, 58, is running for Alaska’s only seat in the US House of Representatives, vacant after the sudden death of Republican Don Young, who held it for 49 years.
Like Donald Trump, she has played a key role in the Republican Party’s populist shift over the past decade in an effort to appeal to the working class. This Christian conservative suddenly found herself in the spotlight when she was chosen by Republican presidential candidate John McCain as his running mate in the 2008 election. many observers, paved the way for Donald Trump’s rise to the White House, which he conquered eight years later.
Palin supporting Trump since 2016
Sarah Palin supports the unfounded allegations of fraud brandished by Donald Trump, who claims to have been “robbed” of the 2020 presidential victory by the Democrats in several key states. “In Alaska, we didn’t have to worry because we won,” the former president told the crowd gathered in a stadium in Anchorage.
Sarah Palin told the public that she supported Donald Trump from the start of his campaign in 2016 because the New York billionaire also supported her when she and her family found themselves in the spotlight.

Donald Trump is trying to consolidate his hold on the Republican Party by supporting, in the primaries, the candidates who are favorable to him against those of the more moderate Republican right.
