Sarah Palin says the presidential election is similar to sporting events like the Olympics or Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) because winning always come down to "who wants it more."
And in a pitch for Donald Trump she warns conservatives that liberals are "out for blood" and "fight dirty."
"As we've seen throughout Rio Olympics, like I've always said: sports are an analogy of life, thus analogous to the Presidential election," Palin, the former governor of Alaska and 2008 vice-presidential running mate of John McCain, writes on her Facebook page.
"Like this McGregor vs Diaz fight … It always comes down to 'who wants it more?' she adds, referring to the bloody battle between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz in Las Vegas Saturday night in which McGregor triumphed.
"Supporters of America-First Nationalism, represented by the Trump movement, must understand the UniParty's Globalism, that'd be Hillary [Clinton], and how the Left fights to win. They fight dirty, but they fight to win. This election is the battle for America's future," Palin says.
"Patriots who know our solvency and sovereignty hinge on the next administration's defense of our Constitution, its policies and its Supreme Court appointments must ask: Are we willing to fight to win this time? Do we want it more? More than leftist zealots who are out for blood and never fight fair?
"Commonsense independent Americans must SHOW our willingness to fight to win this time. I want it more... for our kids' future. Do you?"
