Mark Levin: Why’s Trump Cozying Up to Sanders But Still Trashing Cruz?
Mediaite ^ | May 28, 2016 | Josh Feldman

Mark Levin still has serious problems with Donald Trump, and today he pointed to something odd Trump’s been doing recently that could be a turn-off for conservatives.

Trump has been throwing compliments Bernie Sanders‘ way recently, saying he has some good ideas and the Democrats are being unfair to him and he should consider going third party, while at a rally yesterday Trump went back to trashing “Lyin’ Ted” Cruz.

And that really pissed off Levin, who wondered, “Does he talk about Bernie Sanders this way? He treats Bernie Sanders with an odd respect.”

He mocked the way Trump fans pivoted from praising him for agreeing to a debate with Sanders to praising him for deciding against it.

Why is he still trashing Trump? This is a much better question.

I’ve heard that libertarianism carried to its logical extreme MUST allow abortion. Have you ever heard that?

The logical conclusion is the right to life trumps a woman's temporary loss of liberty. Libertarians for Life

Cruz now deserves any scorn he gets. He pledged to support the front-runner and is not doing so, despite losing.

My understanding of the “Virtue of Selfishness” is that morality is second fiddle to rational individualism, and that is why any argument for the ‘baby’ must resort to moral argument and is not classic libertarianism.

This is why I’ve never trusted libertarianism.

It does not matter 1 whit to me if Trump acts like a brat or uses non-politically-correct language.

What matters to me is that Trump wants to put America First.

97.5% of career politicians are in the pockets o their ultra rich donors. The donor’s interests are diametrically opposite of the vast hard working middle class. Cruz received $34 million from just 4 donors. He is in their pockets whether you like it or not.

Again, Sanders does NOT need to endorse Trump. He is in the opposition party. Rafael Cruz, Martinez, low energy Bush (married to a Hispanic) are REPUBLICANS, and instead of striving for unity behind the presumptive nominee, are licking boots of LaRaza.

Hell, I've got a straight answer for Levin but there are already 147 answers on this thread. Doubt if I've got anything new to add...

Hey, I know... let's just say that Cruz is still an @$$#01e and an ineligible one at that, and I don't accept the premise that Trump is cozying up to the Bernster, in addition to how many others have already said the same thing.

So there.

Trump is exactly right in calling him LYING TED. Ted pledged to support the nominee, and by not doing so, is proving again that he lies.

“It does not matter 1 whit to me if Trump acts like a brat or uses non-politically-correct language.”

I think most Trump supporters on FR must agree with that.

“What matters to me is that Trump wants to put America First.”

I also agree with that slogan. I just want to know, in policy specifics, what they mean by that.

Ayn Rand's 'objectivism' as outlined in “Virtue of Selfishness” is an extreme form of libertarianism. I'm not a libertarian. I'm a Christian conservative. Ayn Rand is a witch. ;-)

Maybe because Cruz is still playing the petulant little child? And because Trump has a genuine shot at Dinobernie voters in the general election?

Use your head for something other than a pencil eraser, Levin.

hy’s Trump Cozying Up to Sanders But Still Trashing Cruz?

Sanders is an important player in terms of what TASS used to call the "correlation of forces" for November, Cruz is not.

And as far as "still trashing Cruz"? What's that about?

All the masks are coming off.

Bottom line as far as the Great One? He believes (I think) that a Trump administration would not fight wars a) that are not in our national interest; and b) that could only achieve stalemate.

Why do globalists want to limit America’s power to decisively win wars? I can only speculate, but I guess I think that maintaining a balance of forces allows global trade to proceed unhindered, while one or two powerful nations pursuing their own national interests might screw with Goldman Sachs.

Levin has been taking stupid pills lately

Mark Levin is not stupid, he's very smart.

It's just that his ability to USE his smarts to get his followers to do that which is not necessarily in their interests has been radically diminished by Trumpismo, and he doesn't like it.

It’s fairly obvious Trump is trying to keep the heat from Sander’s on Hillary and foment a more divisive Dem convention. At the same time hoping some Sander’s folks will swing his way or, in protest, just sit out the general.

Because (1) Lyn’ Cruz has not quit and (2) Sanders is opposing Clinton and, albeit not conservative, is non-establishment. Personally, and I have said before, forced to choose between Cruz and Sanders, I’d vote Sanders. I do not trust Canadian-born Cruz who lies and lies and lies.
