Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a conservative and friend of Free Republic

Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a great constitutional conservative and great friend of Free Republic. Doesn't post much anymore but has had an account here (holdonnow) from nearly the beginning. He stood up for FR when his good friend Hannity was running us down. Also when O'Reilly accused us of not moderating our forum good enough against racism.

I hate to see our good friend getting trashed on FR. I understand why people are upset with him over his position against Trump, but best advice I can give is if you can't stand him, don't listen. I had to quit listening to Beck several years ago after he went nuts, and now rarely tune in Limbaugh. I click on the Mark Levin Show, maybe once per week, just to see if our old trusted ally is back. Sadly, he's still missing in action.

I pray that Rush and Mark come to their senses pretty soon and realize that the primaries are over and the great constitutional conservative Ted Cruz lost. Badly.

We can't go back and we cannot replace our candidate. It's Trump or Hillary. We have to do all we possibly can to make sure Hillary is defeated! And that starts with not bad-mouthing OUR candidate.

There are no do overs and no crying in politics.

Notice that I said "OUR" candidate. This is not like when the GOPe with their big donor bucks installed one of their own sure-losers as the Republican candidate (McCain, Romney, et al) and then told us to suck it up. Which most of us did, even Levin and Limbaugh, because we knew the damage that Obama would do to our country. And he did. And Hillary's damage will be even more severe because she'll be building on Obama's slide into godless socialism and she'll have an immediate shot at packing the courts with godless liberal activists. These judges will be with us for a lifetime. And their rulings for generations. She'll also grant amnesty and voting rights to millions of illegals and throw open our borders to millions more. And then fling the borders wide open for the Muslims. Yup. Sharia law would be coming to a country near you. And the failing Obamacare? No problem. HillaryCare's single payer system will straighten that right out. And she'll save our planet from "climate change" by killing off all our capitalist industries.

Trump was voted in by we the rebellious grassroots voters who are sick and tired and fed up and said NO MAS to the political ruling class and their open borders donors.

This is a voter rebellion and Trump is OUR champion.

We fully intend to crush Hillary and the uniparty in November and reclaim America for AMERICANS!!

Why did we choose Trump to be our champion:

Secure the borders. Build the wall. Enforce the law. End sanctuary cities. Do whatever is humanly possible in deporting as many illegals as we possibly can and or dry up their prospects by enforcing the law and many of them will leave on their own volition.

Slap a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration until we can find out what in the hell is going on! Meanwhile, bomb the shit out of ISIS. And take their oil. And find out what's going on in the mosques.

Rebuild the military!

Throw out Obama's illegal/unconstitutional executive orders and executive agreements. Repeal Obamacare!

Get a handle on trade deals and make sure Americans come first!

Cut the taxes, cut the spending, cut the regulations, cut the government; return the powers and functions reserved to the states back to the states per the constitution and the 10th amendment.

And it's not just about the constitution and national security:

End the ridiculous war on coal, gas & oil, bring back manufacturing. Drill, baby, drill; mine, baby, mine; build, baby, build, farm, baby, farm, produce, baby, produce. The Business of America is business.

Strengthen our economy and create a business friendly environment!

Jobs, baby, jobs!!

Set our people free and let them produce and prosper!!

This is the voter rebellion we've all been longing for. Even bigger than the tea party. Pray Levin and Rush join us. We need their full-throated support to ensure the defeat of the corrupt, America-hating, capitalism-hating, God-hating Hillary and the election of OUR candidate. Donald Trump!!

One of the slogans from the America revolution was:

Join or die!!

Another:

Don't tread on me.

And who can forget:

Give me Liberty or give me death!!

Levin attacked Sarah Palin for linking to The Conservative Treehouse on social media; he then mocked CT on a personal level; he then lied and tried to say CT was an anti Semitic site.

So Levin ranted against Mitt same way he’s ranting against Trump?

Reminder: Trump is more conservative than Romney EVER was.

[Jarhead9297]

If you have t been listening to his trade policies (which by the way is no different than other failed liberal policies in the past) statements on minimum wage, his lack of talking about over bearing large government and spending (I can’t recall the last time he spoke of this), describing to Americans what conservatism looks like and I could go on. HOWEVER I am voting for the guy for many other positions I agree with him on. But please, he is not a constitutional conservative.

[freepertoo]

I’ve listened to him try to take down the Republican nominee...am I supposed ro be gleeful and grateful if he tosses Trump a crumb? Levin has made his position very clear. If he does a convincing about face, maybe I’ll listen, but I doubt it. I am utterly disgusted with Levin’s sabotage, and I’m disgusted with how he has treated Trump’s supporters.

[Sontagged]

if Levin tiraded against Mitt the way he is against Trump, then I’ll stand corrected.

But he didn’t.

[Theophilus]

Using the Carson drop out issue against Cruz is petty and inaccurate.

And Cruz used it against himself by apologizing!?!?!

All conservatives need to learn these very excruciating lessons.

[Phil V.]

TIMES 1000%, JIM ROBINSON.

[NYCslicker]

Jim, couldn’t agree more. Hopefully Mark will re-evaluate his opposition to Trump, even at the expense of helping Hillary. I wish we had the sense on the Right to understand the true enemy. Still listen to Mark, as he still makes a lot of sense on many things, but he is deluding himself if he thinks what he is doing is not helping Hillary.

[Gene Eric]

Agreed, it’s time to move on, and Make America Great Again!

Go Trump!!!

[CreviceTool]

I’ve listened - I’ve watched - I went to the personal appearances and book signings - I bought and read the books.

Sadly, all these “conservatives” like Levin, Beck, Medved, Goldberg, Lowry, and Limbaugh have come and gone over the years.

Most of the conservative books I collected over the years wouldn’t even make a decent fire in 2016 - it’s just a cottage industry for suckers.

Thank God, Boss Jim is still standing steadfast over the dozen years that I have personally benefited from FreeRepublic membership.

You can’t be a Globalist and a conservative — Cruz is a Globalist.

And you can’t be a conservative is you are backing a Globalist.

Levin is no conservative.

[Windflier]

MSM is right there, willingly defending her with vicious attacks on OUR candidate, in order to change the subject and divert attention to her misdeeds with a whole new absurd attack on OUR candidate.

It's not to much to ask for our major league stalwarts to level the reporting!

Bravo!

[heights]

Levin is Un-listenable, I swear the guy owns a Factory in China.

[reasonisfaith]

Laura Ingraham appears to be another establishment tool. Pay careful attention to the style of her commentary.

[Psalm 144]

Well said.

[Political Junkie Too]

Using the Carson drop out issue against Cruz is petty and inaccurate. This isn’t rue, but then again it is the internet, so who cares about the truth.

Nonsense.

By itself in isolation and at the moment, you could be right. But in hindsight it was the beginning of a pattern. It is the pattern that doomed Cruz.

I’m sorry, but when one constantly beats down Trump and tell how much better Ted would have done, I have no choice but the believe that they are, by default, for Hillary. He NEVER went after Romney, McCain or Bush like he has Trump. Look at his Facebook/Twitter page. Nearly every post is about how Trump is flip-flopping, wrong, and not conservative. Additionally, he also said (And I heard this) on his show that we need to “count him as one who will never vote Trump. He is playing both sides and winning on neither. He wants to be able to say “I told you so” and should Trump win, say that he backed him. Count me as #NeverLevin.

[stratboy]

If he posted here daily what he says on his show, he’d get the zot.

Bingo.

"Laura Ingraham appears to be another establishment tool. Pay careful attention to the style of her commentary."

She tries to be a lady, at times she gets salty and things slip out ( she swore on the radio ) and I think post her cancer scare she moved more towards faith and being a better person. That might be what you are seeing in her style. She is not as loosy-goosey as she was 10 years ago tha is for sure.

FWIW, I think she will be Trump's Press Secretary as she does not suffer fools gladly.

[Democrat_media]

Your post is the key post.

That explains it all , commentators like Politicians are bought and paid for.

And a lot of that money probably leads back to Soros.

They are working to get Hillary elected the GOPe , uniparty , Cruz , all the never Trumpers and in back of all of them Is the mega billionaire soros who has been trying to turn the USA socialist forever.

You can’t be a Globalist and a conservative

What is a "globalist" to you? To me a "globalist" is one who wants to turn our national sovereignty (and that of other nations as well) over to global organizations not subject to our constitution or our votes, eventually creating an all-powerful world government.

Genesis 11:4
And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

On the other hand:

Matthew 28
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

No King but Jesus!
