Trump expressed gratitude (for once in his life) for the support from Palin.

“I am greatly honored to receive Sarah’s endorsement,” Mr. Trump said in a statement trumpeting Mrs. Palin’s decision. “She is a friend, and a high-quality person whom I have great respect for. I am proud to have her support.”

Palin, who is known to stir up her own share of controversy in front of the cameras, is said to have a developed top support in the state of Iowa, which could be a huge help for Trump’s run.

”Over the years Palin has actually cultivated a number of relationships in Iowa,” said Craig Robinson, the former executive director of the Republican Party of Iowa and publisher of the website The Iowa Republican. ”There are the Tea Party activists who still think she’s great and a breath of fresh air, but she also did a good job of courting Republican donors in the state,” he added.

Although Palin’s support won’t assure Trump a seat in the Oval Office (especially since she could not get her own crack at the high chair), it could get him a nice amount of “evangelical vote into a war for the soul of the party,” said Ralph Reed, the chairman of the Faith and Freedom Coalition.
