Sarah Palin warns Donald Trump on deportation U-turn

Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin has warned Donald Trump of "massive disappointment" if he backs down on his plan to deport undocumented immigrants.

She demonstrated as John McCain's running mate in 2008 that she possesses a rare star power in the Republican party.
