Sarah Palin, you’ve been duped.
The former vice presidential candidate is outraged with Sacha Baron Cohen for tricking her into participating in an interview for Who Is America? — the comedian’s latest undercover project that Palin claims she was told was a “legit Showtime historical documentary.”
Palin took to Facebook on Thursday to blast Showtime and CBS for enabling Cohen’s “evil, exploitative, sick ‘humor'” she says was disrespectful to the U.S. military and middle class Americans.

In the post, Palin explained she traveled with her daughter across the country to meet with who she thought was a disabled military veteran for a “thoughtful discussion with someone who had served in uniform.”
Only, her disabled vet was really a “heavily disguised” Cohen using a “fake wheelchair” — and their thoughtful discussion was apparently so “perverse,” Palin removed her mic and walked out.
She wrote:
“Out of respect for what I was led to believe would be a thoughtful discussion with someone who had served in uniform, I sat through a long ‘interview’ full of Hollywoodism’s disrespect and sarcasm – but finally had enough and literally, physically removed my mic and walked out, much to Cohen’s chagrin. The disrespect of our US military and middle-class Americans via Cohen’s foreign commentaries under the guise of interview questions was perverse.”
Sounds slightly more scarring than a sit down with Donald Trump.
To make matters worse, the former Governor of Alaska also claimed she and her daughter were “purposefully dropped” off at the wrong airport by production.
