Thanks for posting. I’m listening now. AMAZING! Mark just ripped the idiot that wrote an article today complaining that Trump hasn’t been using the word freedom and liberty! Mark - you are truly the great one!
Listened... awesome.
The GOPe still hasn’t figured it out — the more they kick and scream and squeal, the more loathsome they become to the voters.
“...to convince people who are fed up and emotional.”
I just counted; seven of those I have heard him promote for years.
“emotional”???
Most of us are irate from watching the nation being DESTROYED by its elected leaders who campaign from the right and govern from the left.
The leftists and the media evidently don’t believe he is all blah blah, or they wouldn’t be in such an uproar.
We “conservatives” have now become so pure and picky that when someone voices conservative principles, we reject them. The rest of those candidates who are not even bothering to run as conservatives, such as Jeb! and Kaisch — you can bank it, they are not. And, finally, the curtain has dropped from around Jindal, revealing him for the ridiculous ass he has always been. He has been sounding like Ronald Reagan for years, and on this site, has consistently been described as a reliable conservative. You talk about a joke.
“I wouldn’t be for Trump now if MSM and the GOPe hadn’t systematically marginalized Cruz before Trump got in. “
Same here. It isn’t that Cruz isn’t good enough, it is that he doesn’t have the chops to be effective enough. McInsane and others labeled him a TEA Party candidate and they waged war against the TEA Party.
What confounds me is the need that some of these leading conservative talk show hosts which not only includes Levin, but Limbaugh, and Ingraham as well. Why they feel the need to defend every reactive dumb utterances Trump makes.
When opponents attack him really for hogging the limelight with personality attacks which he knows will divert attention to himself and away from conservative issues that should be forefront this election cycle.
It is as his critics assert because he’s not a conservative nor thinks in advancing those causes . One of which is the mischaracterization of conservatives and those that speak out and get demonized by the media.
Instead it is all about Trump not about the conservative movement and their causes.
Let’s take his reaction to the Megin Kelly attack used at the 1st debate. There was an acceptable and legitimate denounciation about her taking conversations out of context to make him look like some misogenist which had no bearing at all being gratuitously inserted here. Which should have been condemed by the GOP but wasn’t.
Instead of runing off at the mouth. Trump in a following network cable interview continued his attack crudely suggesting Kelly was having a bad day . When he could have used it by bringing up the media’s treatment of Sara Palin as an example and others. Attacked the media for its bias. Which would have also diminished those misogenistic blandishments and really put a lock on the cycle .
Precisely.
Trump is the first Republican with the sense to treat the media as opponents to be beaten instead of obstacles to be avoided.
