(Vanity) Mark Levin is over the top
vanity

Posted on 12/01/2016 5:45:51 AM PST by Bill S

I’ve been listening to Mark Levin every day for many years. I have bought and read every one of his books. Have given a couple of his books to my recent college graduate granddaughters. I signed up for LevinTV on the first available day. We are a 3 generation family of solid constitutional conservatives including the recent college graduates. However, since the wonderful election of Donald Trump, Mark has nightly ranted against some of the cabinet choices or possible choices. He’s questioned Trump’s policies, etc. He rants against the incoming administration more than the evil Dems. In short I find it nearly impossible to listen to Mark lately, My family members feel the same, We’re trying to enjoy the fantastic Trump victory, but Mark is way over the top with his diatribes. I can feel my blood pressure rise listening to him.Why can’t he comment on the appointments calmly and let’s see how the policies are formed. Does any other Levin fan feel the same way.

I got Levin's book and grouped it with the Koran and threw both in a toilet.

And I bought Trump books

Just last night I dipped in for a listen to see if he was calming down but he’s still just so nasty and negative! It must be personal because his arguments are weak. Has anyone heard Rush or Hannity mention him lately? I listened since about 2005. I stopped in about February. At first he defended Trump. Something must have happened.

... want critics to hold Trump’s feet to the fire...

So.... how did you hold Mitch McConnell's and Ryan's feet to the fire, to mention McCain and Linda Graham?

Don't recall smelling smoke from their shoes.

I was listening to Mark Levin on the way home yesterday. He was literally screaming about Trump’s cabinet picks, how the fix was in, how the billionaires are going to screw over the “little guy”, and so on.

Sounds to me like he’s jealous. Personally, I think he’s in the “Undermine Trump at Any and Every Turn” camp. Similar to the rest of the MSM. It’s sad to hear. I don’t expect him to rubber stamp anything, but I do at least expect some SANITY in his arguments.

There has been a huge paradigm shift in the politics of the country (and possibly the world). Some folks just don’t or can’t grasp the situation. He seems to be one of them.

Ya know, if you imagine the NASA launch center with the track of Beck’s career up on the screen, is Mark kinda following the same path? Good grief, Levin captured by the system?

McCain, Grahamnesty ... now Mark? Sheesh

Don’t listen to talk radio, but they have to fill up a lot of time complaining about something/someone.

They do better when the enemy is in office.

How long can you say someone is doing great?

Anger sells.

Levin is turning into George Carlin. A guy who, at one time, I enjoyed listening to, but whose routine gradually and sadly turned into an angry old man ranting and raving against the system.

There are a lot of “conservatives” who have gone completely off the rails when it comes to Trump. All they find are things to criticize. If he appoints a populist cabinet member, they scream that the choice will destroy conservatism. When he appoints a traditional conservative, they sneer that he’s betraying his base. When he reaches out to former enemies like Romney or Condi Rice, they claim that he has no principles. When he announces that he is divesting himself of control of his business empire, they sound like the MSM screaming that the proposal has no “detail.” Its crazy. He was elected less than a month ago and they act like he should have it all figured out already.

While Jennifer Rubin isn’t remotely conservative anymore, her columns are particularly amusing. She’s gone beyond basic criticism and now her columns are filled with things like “Trump is mentally unstable” and fretting about how Trump is going to start a nuclear war.

Matt Lewis is just as bad — claiming that Trump’s election is the harbinger of the end of American democracy. He does so by looking back at all the things the Dems did and worrying that Trump will do the same thing, even though Trump actually hasn’t done any of those things!! Its crazy.

It’s starting to get hard to differentiate Levin from Savage.

Luckily, in the DC market anyway, Savage is going off his 3-6 run in favor of Larry O’Connor. . .

While he does have the airways, willfully changing his stance purely on pocketbook listenership makes him a big fat fake. I once was a listener as well. No mas. No mas.

The thing that bugs me is, Levin is a lawyer. Rush’s brother is a lawyer.

They could BOTH be providing “value added” on a very high level by analyzing the legalities of all the stuff going on in these recounts. (Rush has asked David for help in the past).

Instead Rush talks in generalities about what the Dems are “trying to do” (I am not sure he’s right here-—could be), and Levin completely ignores this stuff. Sad.

Even Savage is ranting. It seems these conservative pundits think they are part of the administration and they are responsible for getting Trump elected.

_________

I think they’re just trying to find a way to still be relevant.

Mark is terrific. He’s just advocating for as many constitutional conservatives as possible in the new Trump administration, while hammering leftwing morons.

There I said it.

Mark Levin was at his best when he was invited onto someone else's show as an expert in legal matters. I first heard him back in the 1990s in this capacity, and I thought he was superb.

No offense to him, but that guy has no business on the radio as a regular talk show host. I'm surprised he has any ratings at all. He has one of the most unpleasant, grating personalities I've ever heard and spends a good chunk of his time on the air just yelling at listeners, callers, etc.

You'll note that none of this has anything to do with his politics, by the way. That's a whole different discussion.

Lawyers aren’t really jack-of-all-trades kind of guys. Election laws within states are highly specialized and research into them is not common. A lot of necessary information may not even be accessible on-line.

Not true.

I hope President Trump does the things he promised. If he does, I will be supportive. If he doesn’t, I won’t, and I would have been the same with any Republican President.

I don’t like the Goldman Sachs Mnuchin pick as Treasury Secretary, and I’m not going to pretend that I do.
