Mark Levin On ‘Airhead’ Donald Trump: ‘Does This Guy Sound Stupid Or What?’

Mark Levin On ‘Airhead’ Donald Trump: ‘Does This Guy Sound Stupid Or What?’

by Matt Schneider | 1:44 pm, April 20th, 2011

The conservative claws are coming out for potential Republican candidate for President Donald Trump. Not only has Congresswoman Michele Bachmann declared the story with President Obama’s birth certificate is “over,” but now radio host Mark Levin is tearing Trump apart on his other favorite issues. Comparing Trump’s thinking to President Herbert Hoover, Levin does not mince words for the man he sarcastically refers to as “our new conservative hero.”

What prompted Levin’s outrage was Trump failing to defend Republican Congressman Paul Ryan’s budget. Levin played a clip of Trump on NBC vowing to always protect Medicare for senior citizens and saying “I think Paul Ryan is too far out front with this issue, I think he ought to sit back and relax.” When Trump instead suggests the budget problems could be fixed by taking on China and OPEC, Levin stops the clip and angrily yells “What the hell does that have to do with Medicare? Does this guy sound stupid or what?” Levin is outraged over Trump not having any idea about Medicare and demanded to know why “when Medicare is going to collapse Mr. Businessman” you want Paul Ryan to sit back and relax?

Levin was on fire as he provided a series of arguments to discredit nearly every perceived benefit of a Trump candidacy. Suggesting Trump’s proposal for a tariff on goods from China is as horrible of an idea as many of Trump’s other past positions, Levin said even if “all your supporters are going to give you a pass on every damn thing you’ve ever said or done” Levin will not be along for the ride. And in his final parting shot, since Trump repeatedly argues his success as a businessman would make him a great President, Levin humorously concludes, “if I follow your logic, Bill Gates ought to be President of the United States because he’s worth ten times what you are too, and yet when it comes to economics and government he’s an airhead just like you.”

I actually believe that it is just one, extremely LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG hair, wrapped ever so correctly on his blisteringly bright and smooth pate.

You don’t know what you’re talking about on that. It is a constitutional requirement.

I don’t trust Levin because he dumped on all sorts of well meaning people in the past like Glenn Beck, Michael Savage and others including my congressman Jerry Moran. I don’t have to like him.

There's a reason he's called the "great one". No BS with him when it comes to Trump.

The candidate that could beat Obama is the one that seriously takes on Obama on the issues.

Joe Dog catcher has more credibility that Obama.
My credit rating is better than that of the USA under this charlatan.

I admire Joe the plumber more than Obama or trump

I dont trust either.

"What would happen if someone proved he wasn’t a citizen? A massive Constitutional crisis which would almost certainly lead to bloodshed if not outright civil war. Levin’s right on this one."

I'm sorry, but I believe those are the words of a coward.

In the past 20-30 years he has ripped a lot of people off, and filed for bankruptcy numerous times

Huh? I don't think there is a bigger slayer of the Dems and RINO's than Levin. Just last night he was ripping on Karl Rove. I'm sorry but the birther issue does not define who is a true conservative.

Mark Levin has a large and extremely loyal following.

I can’t listen to him... he’s just too rude and bombastic for me.

He’s right a lot and even when he’s wrong, he’s right but he does go off half cocked.

A lot of conservatives are panicked about Trump because he’s gotten a lot of publicity and some good polling numbers.

That is stupid in my opinion because Trump doesn’t have a chance in a serious contest.

However, he has done the Lord’s work in attacking Obama and getting a lot of publicity while he’s doing it.

It’s way too early to throw him under the bus. Wait until he finishes Obama off a little bit. He’s really no threat.

Levin’s show today was outstanding. I don’t catch it often but today was a real winner.

I only heard bits of his show today but the part I did hear he was complaining that some on our side are going after Trump more than they're going after Dems.

“invasion is the key word”

Invasion


1. The act of invading; the act of encroaching upon the rights or possessions of another; encroachment; trespass.

2.A warlike or hostile entrance into the possessions or domains of another;

3.The incoming or first attack of anything hurtful or pernicious; as, the invasion of a disease.

With 20 million or more criminals illegally crossing our border, invasion is the proper word.

Mark Levin doesn’t have an elistist bone in his body. He is a humble, kind man who is a core Conservative and a Constitutional authority. He loves America passionately and can talk circles around any Lib, Rino or Freeper who doesn’t “get it”.
I can’t believe some of the stupid comments about him (from those of you who should know better).
His agenda is to promote first principles, help save our country from those who are trying to destroy it and yes, pound the hell out of anyone running for or in office who doesn’t understand that this fight is for the soul of our country. “Get off the phone, you big dope!!”.
Rush is off topic and behind the 8 ball lately. Levin never disappoints. Those of you who are so quick to criticize him could use a few lessons from The Great One.
Thank God for this powerful and brilliant voice on our airwaves..

In an honest, above board election process, that would be true, but the US has no such thing.

In the past 20-30 years, Trump has embraced real estate development

Residential real estate is in the crapper and $6 gas is looming.

I wonder... are Donalds Commercial casinos in distress? I aint planning a weekend in Atlantic shitty

When exactly did Levin go for Romney. I seem to remember many talk radio hosts jumping on the Romney bandwagon when he and McCain were the last ones standing. Hugh Hewitt is the only one I know of who was a Romney backer early on.

Well, if you love him, fine, but he’s hardly a kind and humble man.

More and more people are agreeing with me concerning Mark, Rush, Sean and other conservative talking bobbleheads who have ignored the issue and even attacked those who have kept it alive.

Soon, very soon, we sahll all know the truth about this issue, and like a female caller to Rush said to him, you and the others should hang your heads in shame.
