Bristol Palin criticizes Obama for inviting Ahmed Mohamed to White House

By Mina Abgoon. CREATED Sep 17, 2015

In a blog post published Thursday, Palin argued that Obama should “STAY out” of the situation, according to The Huffington Post and other sources.

She wrote, "This encourages more racial strife that is already going on with the 'Black Lives Matter' crowd and encourages victimhood.”

Though she acknowledged that police “clearly” made a mistake taking Ahmed to juvenile detention, she said that Obama is merely trying to “egg it on.”

"Childish games like this from our president have divided our country ... even more today than when he was elected," she further wrote.

Just don't report on her stupidity. There are millions of people in America just as stupid, and they don't get that soapbox.

Bristol is far too busy posting duck face selfies on Instagram to write boring political stuff. It is, however, often used to say things that Sarah doesn't want attributed directly to her. It's most likely written at Sarah's direction by Nancy French, the ghostwriter of Bristol's book, who also has a blogging presence at Patheos. French's blog, 'Bristol's blog', and Sarah's Facebook page often take a tag team approach, hitting the same topic from slightly different angles and linking to each other shamelessly. Sometimes 'Bristol's' posts are a little more unhinged and venomous. Those are probably written by Sarah herself.

Where was her critique when republican politicians anointed the oath- and law-breaker Kim Davis as a hero?
