Levin: Trump is the most conservative president since Reagan
Conservative Review ^ | 12-18-2017

Posted on 12/18/2017 9:03:55 PM PST by Kevin in California

LevinTV host Mark Levin praised President Trump on his radio program Monday night for having, by his estimation, a very successful first year in office, and called him “the most conservative president since Ronald Reagan.”

Levin has elitist goggles on most times. Even now he claims Trump is purely pragmatic/business-minded and street smart, but not conservative in the “intellectual” sense.

Actually, Trump is someone who has been interested in politics throughout his life and in the past has cited his respect for the ideas of intellectual heavyweights like William F. Buckley. Trump’s interest in Chinese history and culture also precedes his businessman days. Just saying...

You can’t simply be a money/numbers guy and handle leaders from Asia and the Middle East as deftly as he has. He has a knack for understanding how other cultures operate in ways most Americans cloistered in ivory towers and think tanks do not.

Just saying. (Reposted.)

I don’t think I could possibly admire Donald J Trump any more than I do.

In fact his previous flaws make him all the more impressive because they mean he is human.

I love the man. He has extraordinary courage and vision and he has willingly subjected himself to the horror of the left to save this country for people like me.

I believe God touched his shoulder and asked him to serve. He will go down in history as a truly great man - if history is told honestly.

No one was angrier at Levin than me during the primaries—I even tangled with him here ;)

That said, I began to tune in when all the DOJ stuff was happening as he worked in the DOJ, etc. I have found him to be very spot-on in his analysis.

Bonus that he has really become a Trump supporter—not on everything, but who agrees on everything?!

Not ready to buy a book, but I listen regularly.

>> He was never a never-trumper.

Except for the overwhelming negativity he and the callers expressed during the greatest political battle of our time.

#14: "There was one thing I didn’t like about him [Levin] was his constant screaming. He’s an angry person—very smart—but his temper! Wow! Sometimes I had to turn him off because he stressed me out!"

Sums my feelings up too. I used to listen to Levin, but after a half-hour I'm stressed out.

Totally the opposite of Rush. Rush is easy going. I've never heard Rush lose his temper or whine or call people names. I'm surprised Mark Levin hasn't stroked out.

I swell with pride when I watch him hoard AF1 and see him salute our men in uniform. You know they love serving under him.

“He was never a never-trumper.”

That’s where you’re wrong, kiddo.

The neocons are having difficulty accepting the realities of global economics, and are desperately hanging on to the Reagan era that is far, far gone.

Trump is about responsibility. The neocons are hopeless romantics clinging to an abusive trade paradigm.

Same here. It can be seen so plainly. He is 100 percent using his every breath to save this nation. I do believe President Trump winning was a miracle blessed upon this nation by the highest power.

I was never a trump fan either....I expected him to be swartzenegger 2. I have to admit I was wrong....
most republicans would not have the guts to rollback obama’s regulations but trump seems to enjoy it.

Yes they think if we just had another Reagan. The reality is today is a totally different world. Ronald Reagan was a great man for that time but today he would not have been elected and if he was he would have been run over by the deep state. In Reagan's days most of the democrats were still patriots, today is a totally different story. Those of the Obama administration were literally out to destroy this country and still are. This level of evil was non existent in the USA during Reagan's era.

You don’t get to be a multi-billionaire by being a milquetoast.

Me, too. Trump is the perfect choice for the White House during these times.

Not that Trump is by any means a conservative, but, he is the only President in the last three decades to really put America first.

Lol, my Mother used to say that! Of course being the vocal Italian she was, she’d add “dipped in s***”.

Levin is hapyy about the embassy move and has been vocally more supportive, along with the mueller crap show which any decent logical person is disgusted with. Hope it holds.

Exactly — something the neocons fail to accept.

Today, it takes a street fighter to confront the Democrat Thug Party.

He most certainly was a never Trumper. His love of Cruz blinded him against Trump and he made NO bones about it.
