I served in the Reagan administration eight years, and I worked to get him elected in 76 and 80, Levin recalled. There were times we felt, some of us, that he was pulling in the wrong direction. There was actually a group of us that would get together I forget if it was Wednesdays, or whenever it was to try and figure out what to do about it. We would criticize our president, who we loved dearly.
People need to understand something: Everybody is imperfect, he noted. Were imperfect. Our presidents are imperfect. You dont treat them like deities. If you really want to help your president, you criticize him. It doesnt mean you trash-mouth him. It doesnt mean you sabotage him. Thats not what were talking about. We want him to succeed.
It doesnt help Donald Trump any more than it would have helped Ronald Reagan to pretend, or paper over fundamentals here, and the fundamental is that the president campaigned on building a wall, he argued. Now, it doesnt have to be brick-and-mortar every step of the way. We got that. Were not stupid. We understand he cant put a wall on a river. But its supposed to be physical barriers.
He also said a couple of weeks ago that he would shut down the government if theres not wall funding, and I said that hes figured it out. Reagan shut down the government six times, and he didnt back off. He wanted that MX missile Trident system, and he insisted on it. He wanted them to cut government spending, and he insisted on it. He went to the American people and he explained to them exactly what he was doing six times, Levin pointed out.

Mark speaks for many who dont want Amnesty and dont want the Wall “later” and know the “increased Security” is bull crap for “NOTHING” .
I’d say the flack from shitting down the government pales in comparison from being labeled a white supremacist.
Mark should cut Trump a little slack instead of always going for his juggler over insignificant crap.
It’s not so much that Levin is right or wrong in his positions that irk me. It’s that he’s a lot like the turds on the left who do nothing but look to tear Trump down. Every day it’s something else that Trump did or didn’t do to please Levin. It gets very old very fast.
Even when Levin says something nice about him it’s always with an aside that let’s you know that no matter what, he still will never approve of anything Trump.

Levin is waiting around the corner to snipe on Trump at every turn. He’s doing our side no good at all by that.
I’ll never listen to Medved again as long as I live. After the never Trumper he’s been he’s dead to me.
Mark is one thing but Medved is even worse.
I’m not sure Levin would know what a mistake is. I haven’t watched him since Oct last year whe he made his mistake.
Levin continues to be enthralled with the sound of his own voice.
Nevertrumper Levin bailing after the mainstream media played him.
I will be in Huntsville, Alabama, on Saturday night to support Luther Strange for Senate...
Levin has proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is incapable of being objective when it comes to Trump, so he can shriek all he wants but it’s just the normal noises from him as far as I’m concerned. He’s not credible as a critic since he’s only critical.
If Levin had his way Rubio or Cruz would be President and total amnesty would be snaking its way through Congress.
