I have a serious question, said Mark Levin on his radio program Tuesday night. Will Trump be more Nixon or Reagan? His question focused on the policy positions of the two former Republican presidents.
Some of Trumps recent comments should have conservatives wondering perhaps not quite worrying but wondering. The new president-elect has walked back or been silent on many major campaign promises, including the building of a border wall, cancelling the Paris climate agreement, and prosecuting Hillary Clinton.
Of course, we are told to ignore this, Levin said. I want [Trump] to succeed, but I want him to do the right thing.
Listen to the full clip below:

Hey, Mark? What are you wearing?
We’ve seen what happens to anyone who tries to pigeonhole him.
Trump’s gonna be more like Thomas Edison...he’s gonna do what works.
Reagan also gave us amnesty for illegals or are we supposed to forget that too Mark?
I was thinking Rather or Beck
I was merely thinking in terms of his investing $1 Trillion in the infrastructure alone. Let alone the Trillion returning from foreign banks that the corporations were 'protecting'.
Already, the stock market is reacting.
Reagan's boom took almost two years to make a public appearance. Trump's has already started. Stock market breaking all-time record.
Hey Mark,
Shut up. Nobody cares what you think anymore.
Reagan made California turn blue forever with his amnesty. I hope he’s neither.
Knee-jerk Reagan defender here. And I was only 12 when he was elected :)
What betrayals? Are you talking about his Spox's stupid statement about not going after Hillary, which Trump later said himself wasn't off the table?
Or about condemning the "alt-right", which is a liberal media fabrication anyway. You do not want to show your hand while Obama and his minions are still in power.
Which of the two best Presidents of the last 50 years will he be most like? I’m guessing that’s not how Levin meant it.
If I had to choose, I’d Ike with NYer attitude
How Britain plans to tame Trump?
Good luck with that.
+1
Trump may be more like Eisenhower. He said it himself!
“Let me just tell you that Dwight Eisenhower, good president, great president, people liked him. I like Ike, right?” Trump said in the Nov. 10 debate hosted by Fox Business Network. “Moved 1.5 million illegal immigrants out of this country, moved them just beyond the border. They came back. Moved them again beyond the border, they came back. Didnt like it. Moved them way south. They never came back.”
In fact, we were discussing on FB today around noon, that right about then, JFK was passing the Texas School Book Depository.
Someone said it was the defining moment of 'our' generation.
Certainly, no disrespect to President Kennedy, but as a self-employed businessman at the time, I thought Ronald Reagan was. ;)
Same. I’m also taking a wait and see approach.
I think Levin is asking a fair question, but let’s allow Trump to get into office and actually start taking action before we worry.
Why don’t we wait until he’s actually inaugurated before we decide if he’s reneged on anything?
