I found it interesting that, of all people, Sarah Palin extended a very cordial and mature congratulations to Kamela Harris.
"Congrats to the democrat VP pick," Palin wrote in an Instagram post. "Climb upon Geraldine Ferraro's and my shoulders, and from the most amazing view in your life consider lessons we learned."

Interesting but not surprising, Celebrity by itself is very lucrative.

What did she learn exactly? That the Vice President is in charge of the Senate?

Has US politics become so polarised and toxic that Sarah Palin’s congratulations and advice to Kamala Harris cannot just be accepted at face value...as exactly what it is, a nice gesture? I find it amazing that most of the responses below are sceptical and derisory and show such cynicism. Maybe as an outsider I just can’t get into the American mindset, but here in the U.K. it is entirely possible for politicians to offer congratulations to political rivals from opposing parties without immediate suspicion of insincerity or ulterior motive.

It is entirely possible in the US also but Sarah Palin was about as fake as they come. This is just her trying to be relevant again.
@tzimzai So it’s only because it came from Sarah Palin...any other Republican politician would have been thought sincere?
@Marionville I am sure there are Republican politicians that it would have been better received from. The problem is the Republican party in this country, in general, has become one big crazy, toxic stew so finding good faith Republicans is becoming a challenge. If a Mitt Romney type had been the one offering congratulations and advice no one probably would have batted an eye. The minute she made the "stand on our shoulders" comment as if she had played some big part in bringing women up, it just smells like false bs intended to make it about her. I'm no big Kamala fan, or Biden fan but having Sarah Palin try and insert herself as someone to learn from is pretty galling knowing her history.
Yeah right.

I am not sure I trust it either.
She's just trying to get some publicity. She hasn't been relevant since "Nailin' Palin" was on the back wall at Blockbuster Video.

Yeah. I just thought she'd go for trash talk like everyone else was on that side.
@BufftonBeotch I met her and her daughter working at the Marriott Philadelphia 2008. She was nice. Very good looking in person.
@barjoe Caribou Barbie did appeal to some in that way.
Anything for attention, right Sarah?

And she probably did not write it all her self, but still.
It was more class than I have ever seen out of her.
