Great news! Sarah Palin will be interviewing Donald Trump at 10 p.m. Eastern on her brand new show, On Point, which started Monday and airs on the One America News network. It will be the greatest, classiest, rogue-iest interview ever!
Wait. What’s that? You don’t get OAN on your cable system? Me neither. Bummer. Maybe it’ll be on Palin’s Facebook page eventually.
What makes this whole thing a little weirder than even the normal Palin weirdness is that she announced her upcoming interview with a standard-issue blast on the lamestream media for asking Trump a gotcha question about his favorite Bible verse. “By the way,” she writes, “even with my reading scripture everyday I wouldn’t want to answer the guy’s question either… it’s none of his business; it IS personal.” What makes this weird is that Palin has been happy to talk about this before. For example, in this interview:
In dealing with her daily challenges, Palin leans on the Bible verse that says, “God hasn’t given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power and might and a sound mind.”
That’s 2 Timothy 1:7 (close enough, anyway), and Palin has mentioned it on other occasions too. It really does seem to be one of her favorites. So why is this suddenly so personal that she doesn’t think anyone should have to talk about it? Are we now all keeping our favorite Bible verses a deeply held secret?
