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.

Mark Levin is acting like a spoiled brat who lost the game, and now wants to take his marbles home. He looks like a mountain man these days.

Strength/weakness...His knowledge of the Constitution and his immature behavior.

Glide path...
He had previously acknowledged the necessity of working with Trump if he were to become the nominee.

Then he went full throttle #nevertrump

Recently he took a tiny walkback step and indicated he might open to being a #trumpif...
...if Trump did pretty much everything Levin wanted him to do.

Trump is going after Sander’s supporters. Trump already has most of Cruz’s. If Levin wants kind words from Trump towards Cruz, Cruz had better start playing nice.

For those of you who know him, what are his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses?

Levin is a brilliant Constitutional scholar who is 100% conservative, and unlike Rush who is only 98.5% right, Levin is always right.
You can pick him up on the iHeart radio application.

Better question:

Why is Cruz still trying to undermine Trump, helping Hillary?

Trump are courting Sander’s voters,
while Cruz’s voters have been courted already. If low taxes, reducing the debt, judge picks, strong military and border isn’t enough to court Conservatives then they’re no Conservative

Mark,you have to realize that Sen. Cruz called it quits a few weeks ago and Mr. Trump is not going after him at all. Take care of yourself please.

Cruz thinks that by not endorsing Trump he can be a player at the convention. By continuing to call him Lying Ted, Trump is marginalizing him.

Trump is playing chess and staying at least one step ahead of him.

Really? Bald head and a huge beard? The last time I saw Levin, it looked like he, Billy Joel and Rick from Pawn Stars could pass for triplets.

>>What does Levin mean by “nationalist populist ‘crap’?”

You know what it means. Levin is riding on the Cheap Labor Express.

That was my thought exactly. I’ve never listened to his show but I assumed that he couldn’t be entirely stupid. Apparently he can.

My problem with internet radio (TV, Netflix, etc.) is that I’m very rural and paying for GBs (both up and down load) with 4 other people on my plan. I’ll sneak a listen of Laura Ingraham every now and then, but Rush and Hannity are easily found on the radio.

And Glen Beck....what a waste of air time.

It sound to me, NOTHING TRUMP could ever do, is enough to get Levin to vote for him. Which tells me Levin hate Trump for personal reasons and got nothing to do with ideology

One would not expect a socialist running as a Democrat to endorse the GOP nominee like one would expect of a GOP candidate.

The holdouts on the GOP side are only harming themselves.
The Bush clan and their allies have lost control of the party.

It sounds like the libertarian guy (Johnson?) is going to be the default ‘3rd party’. Could Levin argue that libertarian does not violate his principles?
