Well man I tell ya, when Americans wake up one day and realize that any old African with Ebola can simply jump on a plane and get out in Texas and waltz into the hospital, it’s concerning.

When your government then tells you that “oh well, nothing can really be done about it” and your OWN PARTY tends to agree. You shouldn’t be shocked that the public is willing to skin you alive in the street. It is what it is. Your blind ignorance is not MY problem.

I would point out to him, however, that a LOT of the anger is from people who are beyond fed up with the GOPe and their constant lies and manipulation.

I'm a regular listener to him. He totally understands that.

RE:”The article says that most of his angry responses come from Trump supporters. “

They seem to be an angry mob at times.

That’s right.

A long line of insider media frauds who knows who butters their bread. They’re beholden to their sponsors etc. This includes El Rushbo, Hannity, Levin, Huge Blewit, Fox et al.

As almost always, Prager knocks it out of the park.

Save your breath, Dennis; they're going to tear you to pieces no matter what you say.

Prager is a sniveling eGOP type that apologizes to everyone for everything.

He starts his every sermon with a good cry.

All the lifelong conservatives are on the take because they oppose NYC moderate Trump, the crony capitalist.

Got it.

Trump-logic.

Radio talk show hosts can minimize the hate mail they get during the primary season by doing their job and providing their listeners with objective information they can use to weigh trade-offs, instead of blowing off half their fan base by expressing an opinion which they then must defend to the death.

I cannot stand listening to Bill Bennett, Glen Beck, Michael Medved, Mark Levin (and a few more who are subs or weekend hosts) because they devote their shows to insulting me.

Everyone acts surprised at the depth of the anger being exhibited by conservatives this election cycle. But let's be realistic. For decades, we've seen our values mocked, our wealth squandered, our history lampooned, our accomplishments diminished, our culture subsumed by perversion, license, and anarchy.

We've appealed to our legislators to represent our interests in the halls of government, only to be betrayed time and again by concessions to our ideological enemies. We've turned to the courts to protect us, only to have them invent rights that subvert our charter and empower the forces arrayed against us. We've sought comfort in the arts, only to see them transmuted from gold into dross, celebrations of filth and deviancy.

Where then do we turn? Whom do we trust? What compromises should we be willing to make after all the preceding compromises have left us abandoned?

This is the same spirit that inspired the American Revolution. For the time being, OUR Revolution is still in the "soft" stages. But if the alienation of conservative values continues unabated, don't expect that to be the case forever.

"Prager is just another of a long line of foaming and frothing at the mouth neo-cons who hate Trump. They hate him because he doesn’t have to come on bended knee to beg for their money, he doesn’t hire them as “consultants” or “strategists”, he routinely attacks the media and political correctness. They are afraid that if Trump is elected he might not send America men and women to die when they start howling for another war."

Nailed it!

For those paying attention, the term “Conservative” has clearly become the new establishment buzz word in attempts to discredit Trump.

As if the establishment’s career politician candidates have been a “conservatives” for the past 35+ years. No one capable of critical thought buys that. Btw, these media talkers ratings thrive off decline.

This is not complex BigBoober.

Even Mark Levin sounded indistinguishable from Michael Medved yesterday. Levin is usually a little better than other Rino supporting radio hosts but yesterday he was impudent and overpowering sincere conservative callers only to support globalism and amnesty pro immigration positions.

This is Obama’s ultimate success. He’s getting Trump to destroy the Republican Party. And Trump’s supporters are as gleeful as the liberals that a guy who was a liberal way back when Bruce Jenner was a man, like a couple of years ago, is the one keen to destroy the Republican Party. And they say the Republicans stabbed them in the back. It’s a useful attack previously used by a famous demagogue.
