Me too I used to listen to Levin now I think Levin is a traitor against America
Some of Trump’s biggest political battles with be with his own party, unless he can transform the GOP into something that actually represents the interests of the average voter. You’re right, the corporatists have controlled the party. We have to take it back or start a new party.
I’m so glad that you can see Rush’s passive aggressive anti-Trump bent that he plays out daily on his show. He speaks out both sides of his mouth when it comes to Trump and spreads as much MSM/GOPe anti-Trump meme as possible. He shrouds it in a kind of Rushian double speak but it’s so apparent to so many of us. Poor Rush! He’s on his way out the door along with Levin just not with so much contempt.
China us ripping us off now
in the 1980s Japan was ripping USA off
Video of Trump from the 1980’s shows trump saying JapaN was ripping off the usa then .Trump much better than reagan ad Reagan allowed Japan to rip the USA
However China is literally destroying the USA now and is a billion times worse than Japan was
Trump is America first and always was
We will see. Even if Trump is elected, I’m not sure he’ll stick around in the DC cesspool for more than one term. Don’t get me wrong; I’m rooting for Trump. But not sure he fully grasps just how wicked and viscous things are in DC. People who like to accomplish things will find the political machinations, intrigue, corruption and resistance to change very frustrating to deal with.
Just trying to keep it real.
Also Hillary will import millions of Muslims from Syria and give illegals amnesty by executive order. America us done if Hitlary wins
It’ll definitely be rough for Trump in DC with so many working against him.
How long he’ll stick around is a mystery. I think he wants to get things on some kind of a good track, if for no other reason to help assure that his kids and grandkids have a fighting chance for success in the future. I think his kids’ futures are the primary reason he’s running. If the rest of the country benefits from his time in the White House, then we’ll be lucky.
In Southern California, conservative talk radio between 3 and 6 in the afternoon has become a wasteland. We have Levin on KRLA and Sirius, and Glennie on KEIB. We also have Glennie on Sirius in the morning.
Absolutely. Repeating the canard "Vote your conscience" is worthless when one has a warped conscience.
“Levin then promised after Labor Day to let us know who he’ll be voting for...”
I supposed Levin thinks we will all put our lives on hold until he speaks.
It would not surprise me if there were still some crazed Cruz-bots still holding out hope that their man will somehow be placed on the ticket for November 8.
Oh I'm sure he already has his management team picked out with specific instructions to marginalize elements that won't get with the program. Hostile takeovers are nothing new in business.
Let’s just call him what he is - HilLiARy supporter
He can’t possibly believe she woud be better than him
What on earth makes him think Trump is so bad, I don;t understand it. None of his arguments make any sense.
The problem I have with Levin when it comes to Trump is that there seems to be a personal aspect to this. It is as if Trump reminds Mark of somebody who left emotional scars on him as a child. I believe it is affecting Mark’s ability to think critically.
To wit: Yesterday, Mark reads an NRO article that goes state by state to show why Trump has no chance. The article says it is going by the most “reliable polls” but gives little, if any support, as to why they are the most reliable. It could be said that the article, from a publication that has NEVER had support for Trump, was cherry picking polls to make its case that Trump was finished.
Mark finishes the article and goes to commercial concluding that we chose the wrong nominee.
Mark comes out of commercial with a faux apology to his audience about giving them bad news. Here is the money moment, he says he owes if to the audience not to “cherry pick” polls that show Trump winning and pretend all is well.
I see then. Instead, via NRO, he owes his audience cherry picking of polls that show Trump getting destroyed. Perhaps Trump has no path to 270. But I find it somewhat unlikely that the “most reliable” polls comprise only those that show Trump losing. (Note, after 2012 I am not discounting any poll out of hand).
I was somewhat amazed as I am not accustomed to Mark making arguments that are so easily undermined. If a dope like me can say “hey, wait a minute” then it is tells me that Mark has lost his objectivity. He can’t even realize when obvious contradictions are spilling from his mouth.
Levin could have led his show with the revelation of 30 deleted Benghazi emails from Hillary Clinton’s illegal server, and talked for an hour about how she lied to Congress and the people about it. He could have talked about how deleting the emails and lying about it shows intent, and demand that Comey and the FBI reconsider charges. Then, in the second hour Levin could discuss the article on Trump's path to victory.
But, nooooo...
Levin led with his pathological bashing of Trump for an hour and didn't get to the Benghazi emails until 90 minutes later. By that time, I was getting home and turned off the radio to begin my evening chores at home.
Levin made the editorial decision to bury the Hillary Benghazi story on page B12, and run Trump's path to victory on Page 1 above the fold, just like a New York Times editor would do.
Levin is a problem now.
Furthermore, to use Levin's own words, it's the candidate, not the surrogates, not the media, not the pundits, who lose the elections. Levin speaks of this regarding Trump's position in the polls, but he disregards this when evaluating the truth of why Ted Cruz lost.
Levin constantly slips in remarks about attacking his wife or attacking his father - clear references to Trump's primary comments about Cruz. But let's have Levin explain why it was the candidate himself, and not others, who was responsible for his loss.
Ted Cruz's fortunes began to change when his "voting violation" mailer began to surface in Iowa. He should have known that people would be on the lookout for the dirty tricks the GOPe used against Chris McDaniel in Mississippi two years earlier, and this was of the kind.
Immediately following this was the caucus-night stories of the Cruz campaign spreading rumors that Ben Carson had dropped out of the race. This was the second strike against Cruz's "principled conservative" image that he was running on.
Cruz's third strike came in Chicago when he used the obvious Left-wing BLM attacks at Trump rallies to blame Trump for inciting violence. Everyone else understood what was happening, and saw Cruz's statements as crass opportunism and not a principled conservative position.
Doubts about Cruz now begin to go public.
Cruz's fourth strike was in Colorado, where he connived to win all the delegates with the smokey back room tactics. Fifth and sixth strikes piled up as subsequent primaries yielded Trump popular wins but Cruz delegate wins. NeverTrump was born, and "principled conservative" Cruz seemed to be behind it. Suddenly, the outsider appeared to be the consummate insider.
The last strike was the state-swapping "deal" with John Kasich, which it later seemed that Cruz double-crossed on even that.
Now people began to question if this was why nobody who worked with Cruz liked him. Nobody.
Put this in context with questions of Cruz's eligibility being the same as Vietnam war babies, and it's clear that Cruz defeated himself in the primary.
Now, we just have to get Levin to follow his own advice, resolve his issues and get his head straight, and get with the program of defeating Hillary Clinton.

I agree. I believe that Trump truly wants to restore greatness to the country and to reinvigorate the U.S. economy. I could be wrong about the one term deal as he seems to have some wise advisors surrounding him (e.g., Rudy Guliani) and they know how deep the cesspool really is. And I admit that Trump’s stamina and endurance is a thing to behold so maybe he can survive more than one term.
The trick to life in DC is to be stronger than everyone else around you so they fear you. Trust me, hat’s how it works. His first few months will be crucial to establishing a perception of his power. Winning the election big would truly be YUGE for him. lol
I will be thankful if he only serves a single term, if for no other reason than he stopped the Clinton Machine from destroy the country. And kept her from appointing more liberal justices to the USSC.
“Levin especially knows what damage to the Country a Hillary Presidency will do to the Country. I hate to inform Mark Levin his fraud Ted Cruz’s career is totally over”
Agree. I live in Texas, voted for Cruz when he ran for senate which he won and voted for him in the presidential primaries which he lost. Now, I’m for Trump and I expect Cruz to get on board and support Trump too. If he keeps up his too cool for school act I won’t be voting for him next senate race. As for Levin, I don’t care what he thinks.
All year....and he is still doing it....Rush reports and amplifies EVERY negative media talking point about Trump.
It is more than obvious that Rush is a GOPe, anti-Trump establishment hack; he is just very clever about trying to disguise who he really is, but people like you, who are smart, can see through the veneer of his rhetoric.
Sure, he hates Hillary and the other libs, but he doesn’t like Trump either. Meanwhile, one of those two will be the next president, and Rush should get over his butt-hurt about Cruz/Rubio losing the primaries and get on board with Trump. The primaries are over.
He sure has. It’s really shocking. I had stopped listening to him before all this as I thought his thinking and show overall was not keeping up with political changes and thought. I couldn’t figure out why someone as smart as him wasn’t seeing the bigger picture. Now I know.
I was never high on Levin anyway and now I never listen to him.
