For the record, Julianne Moore's portrayal of Sarah Palin garnered her a much deserved Primetime Emmy Award. Heck, Moore's portrayal of Palin is so reminiscent of Ed Asner's portrayal of far-right private investigator W. Guy Bannister in the 1991 Oliver Stone film 'JFK.'
Yeah right. Maybe Trump, in refusing to legitimize the blatant electoral fraud which put China Joe in the White House, was defending the proud American tradition of holding free and fair elections
@@pauljackson2409 Trump has helped Chinas influence grow by pulling out of the TPP. He's been all bark and no bite. Biden was the VP for a guy that actually had a plan for the pacific. Now, dont commit treason for your "sports team".

Julianne Moore won an Emmy for her performance. Well deserved. Her performance is excellent (As is the whole movie.). This scene is the best part of the movie hands down.
Steve: I've said this 5 times already. She is NOT giving a speech. Aide: Well, she seems to think otherwise. Steve: Well, she's not. Aide: Well, what you want me to tell her? Steve: Tell her she's NOT FUCKIN' SPEAKING.
I'm closing out Mother's Day 2022 scrolling through Steve's twitter feed as he spills the tea on Meghan. He does not hold back. _I had a golden rule. Disrespect Agents of the US Secret Service, goodbye. She was the only person who was a multiple offender. That was the only entitlement I would grant her. She was a 24 year old 2 year old. Monstrous behavior. The real life Veruca Salt x 1000000_
@Libert Fortem Steve Scmidt and Nicole Wallace also both 'confirmed' to John McCain they were supporting him and then stabbed him in the back after his defeat. Wallace didn't even VOTE for McCain. Both joined liberal networks. Wallace is one of the most liberal voices on MSNBC today. So nothing they say is reliable. That's why I don't believe this happened
The maturity of American society at that time is that they did not give Palin even an inch of space for the narrative of “They did not let me speak because I AM A WOMAN” to sustain. They saw her nonsense & treated her as per her worth.
I met someone this past semester that worked with the McCain/Palin campaign she said, and I quote, "watching this movie was like reliving a nightmare. The campaign gave me PTSD, and this movie was like watching a horror movie. It was so real that it gave me chills." What more proof do you need that this movie is legitimate?
iSteven00 So says someone that probably watches the bullshit Fox 'News' feeds you ignorant, paranoid morons all day long. Spare us. This segment was spot on and anyone that actually thinks Sarah Palin was or is qualified to be Vice President or possibly President of the United States is an idiot.
iSteven00 She had a tremendous record as governor of Alaska? No disrespect, but what planet are you living on? Sarah Palin did not even finish her one term and resigned the governorship while in office. Certainly if being governor of a state with a population of less than one million people was too daunting for this dolt, she should not be sent to an even higher office. But by all means, I implore Republicans to nominate this shining example of conservative ignorance and hypocrisy for president in 2016. For the country, of course.
iSteven00 Amazing that conservatives saddle everyone they don't like with personal responsibility, but Sarah's failures are someone ELSE'S fault. If not Obama, it's ALWAYS liberals. lol.
I cannot get over the amazing resemblance between Julianne Moore in this movie and the real Sarah Palin. People said how much Tina Fey looked like Palin--but even though there was a good resemblance there, I could still tell the difference. With Julianne Moore, I can't. She looks EXACTLY like her!
i looooove this scene!!! whether this actually happened or not, Steve Shmidt joined a VERY small group of republicans I admire, respect and am actually a fan of. Republicans who get it... this is not about you, it's about the country.
Mc Cain was incredible. I would have busted the man who had the nerve to sign up a woman with such little education about everything and so arrogant as well. It was almost like if Obama had picked her for him. The perfect sabotage, almost unfair for Mc Cain. Epic lesson in bad political strategy.
McCain was on the ropes and they all knew they were taking a risk, could hav easy went the other way...can u imagine this nutcase in the Whitehouse.. I get shivers thinking of it.
+Ricardo Murillo Yeah, but don't forget, for a short while Palin got massive media coverage and was incredibly popular, and the pundits were saying it was a stroke of genius to pick her as running mate. And then she opened her mouth.
What concession speech? ALL he did was bitch and moan and lie. He's the ONLY president to NOT allow a peaceful transition of power. Even RMN left peacefully, there was no riot at the Capitol, no screaming nut jobs saying it was a 'witch hunt'
I have all the respect in the world for Steve Schmidt for this! He, along with Nicole Wallace, said that Sarah Palin was the biggest mistake of McCain's campaign. It's rumored that they both voted for.......Obama!😯🤣😂🤣
one of the most undignified moves... I mean along with all the name calling, blatant lies, mocking disabled people, causing the deaths of many Americans, etc. The people that matter do not respect trump one bit... nor take him seriously.
I remember the rumor at the time was that Sarah tried to make the speech anyway and they shut off the power to the stage, lights, teleprompter, everything just so she would stfu.
I searched this scene out because Steve Schmidt mentioned the incident yesterday (August 27, 2023) obviously confirming that it was true. No losing veep has ever given a concession speech. Even more importantly (and tragically): no American presidential candidate two and a half years after his defeat has refused to concede at all. Palin was horrible for the country. Trump is unprecedentedly horrific.
Cool that we can watch Steve Schmitt (Woody's character) on TV now as a pundit on MSNbC. when this movie came out he was interviewed there and validated that these things in the movie occured just as they are portrayed.
In light of the recent results of the special election for the Alaska house seat, I searched for Palin's concession speech. My search brought me here. It would seem that Sarah only wants to concede when no one else wants her to and won't when everyone does. Go Mary! Best wishes to you.
It was really unfair that people blame Palin for McCain's loss. The election of Obama was a perfect storm of events 1). Extremely difficult for a party to win three straight elections 2) The economic collaspe in September 3). A bunch of Americans getting caught up in the craze of electing the first black president that really didn't look to see he is the most inexperienced person ever to be elected president.
This scene hits different knowing Rick Davis is connected to the Kremlin and he picked Palin. Steve Schmidt just uploaded about it on his Twitter account.
no, not the media... the media and intelligent people (i.e. not republicans) were laughing at Palin...she's no different than trump... no one takes them seriously nor respects them
My favorite part happens right after this scene when McCain warns Sarah Palin to not become one f the right-wing extremists. I do have the up-most respect for Senator McCain despite the fact that I'm a Democrat,
I sometimes wonder if Julianne Moore & Woody Harrelson got along with each other off of the set of this 2012 Movie "Game Change"???? Julianne Moore is a very great, a very excellent & a very wonderful Movie Actress & Woody Harrelson is a very great, a very excellent & a very wonderful Movie Actor!!!!!!
The cut the scene too soon. McCain walks away, but then turns, comes back, and gives Palin a hug. He tells her that the Republican party needs her, and warns her that Limbaugh and the other radicals will ruin the party.
What’s interesting is that expectation must have changed because Tim Kaine definitely spoke before Hillary’s concession speech. Amazing performance from Julianne by the way.
Julianne Moore's portrayal of former AK Gov. Sarah Palin is so reminiscent of Ed Asner's portrayal of far-right private investigator W. Guy Bannister in the 1991 Oliver Stone film 'JFK.' For the record, both Moore and Asner have always been on the left.
I just watched this movie last night (Thought it was great btw) and I judged Moore before seeing her as Palin. I thought no way what a bad choice Moore really? Fey has got the goods. Moore was awesome in mimicking Palin and acted her down to the T. Harrelson was in his excellent as always acting element and Ed Harris performed very well as McCain. Palin is a self serving witch and treated the opportunity for her beauty queen grandstand vs. the good of this country.
i am not an american, but like people from the rest of the world i am impressed how america established itself in the world, i respect the wonderful leadership it had, which brought it to this point...but first time or atleast first in my living time...i could not understand how such a great country with so much of intellectual resource came up with such a dumb choice for leadership...its not sarah Palin who is dumb, but the social and the political pyramid of usa is to be faulted,
I really don't get you Palin appologisers. McCain's former top aid and Sarah Palin's former aid called the depictions accurate. Also, it makes perfect sense in light of what we all saw from the Charles Gibson interview, Katie Couric interview, that fact that she couldn't name a newspaper, didn't know Africa was a continent, phone prank, etc. Palin and McCain both said the movie is inaccurate yet they admitted they haven't seen the movie. In light of this, how can you call it a hatchet job?
1:52 I like that he mentioned the country has elected the first African American president. It's like, I'm against the guy, but I'm proud that the country finally elected an African American.
Schmidt recognized the historic importance of the election of the 1st African-American President of the US. Palin did not. She wanted 1 last chance to soak up the adoration of her "fans" before heading back to Alaska, & political obscurity.
@ilovemycowboys oh yeah, I expect tons of emmy nominations at least for Game Change and everyone involved. Even if they don't win any....they will assuredly receive tons of nominations and rightly so
The problem is that we are consuming it at a far faster rate than it can be replaced. Well that's one of the problems. The other is greenhouse gas emmissions.
Steve Schmidt was actually wrong when he said that "no losing Vice President has every given a concession speech." Dan Quayle gave one when Bush the Elder and he lost the 1992 Presidential election.
Oh for god sakes, not everything is about race 100. Christ, you're like the Republicans with the "You hate the troops" when someone didn't agree with Iraq...it's a run-to crybaby reply. As for Schmidt, James Trout, Schmidt stated no Vice President candidate ever did a concession speech - Quayle was an actual elected Vice President, unlike the The Quitter From Wasiller.
Yoni617 That's exactly correct, Yoni. Quayle was ELECTED vis a vis Papa Bush, while Palin was a CANDIDATE. The quote by Harrellson as Schmidt was 100% accurate.
That would not surprise me. Geraldine Ferraro was the first woman to be on a major party ticket in general. She was also the last Democrat on a Presidential ticket to not have been a statewide elected official.
@MikeJames6 I was thinking I wanted someone with a brain and that I did not want a 72 year old with cancer who could die any second with a moron to replace him voted in
I am so waiting for the Clinton Campaign movie....Would love to see them freaking out behind the scenes about Wikileaks and creating a plan to blame Russia (after finding out that Podesta fell for a common sense email phishing attempt that even children are smart enough not to click on)
Steven Schmidt on Trump today, June 25, 2108. "He's a supernova of ignorance. He's inciting through mass rallies and constant lying, favoring the political base. He scapegoats minority populations and affixes blame to them for every problem the country faces. He alleges conspiracies of nefarious forces; he creates a mass sense of victimization amongst his base, and then he asserts extraordinary claims of power to protect the victims from these scapegoated populations and the nefarious conspiracies. That is fundamentally illiberal, deeply un-American, and frankly, to be straight out of Munich, circa 1928. It's very alarming."
He stands by the Constitution. If you look at a lot of his positions, he's definitely not hard right! He believes in a woman's right to choose, and he's a strong advocate for LGBT rights. Schmidt is not a hard right Republican!
Woody Harrelson is brilliant in this movie. Perfect performance.
It was reported Julianne Moore had half of her brain removed to accurately portray Sarah Palin.
I would say 95%... anything less is an insult to Julianne.

I served on the County Commission with an egomaniac like that. Every sentence began with “I” and her favorite topic was herself.
what a train wreck of a candidate (Palin). We dodged a bullet in 2008 only to get hit by a missile in 2016.
