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.”

“Get off the phone, you big dope” is a Mark-ism...mostly meant to highlight his humor rather than insult you.
Your taking offense proves that you don’t listen to his show, however.

I would rather have Trump than Romney and I could care less about the labels. Many are like me, they are sick of the lying POS in both parties. If they wanted a balanced budget with a booming economy, they would have one, but not even Ryan has the guts to propose spending only what comes in. They put it off until tomorrow, because tomorrow never comes.

My knowledge and understanding is clear.

Trump is a charlatan and you’re out of touch.

I stand by what I said. You would rather hide from the truth then face it because it could mean violence. That is the very definition of a coward. Whats next, will you give up your freedom and property to avoid a fight?

Well, I already said I don’t listen to his show because he shows his kindness and humility by being rude to callers, both liberal and conservative. Obviously, I’ve listened enough to know that, and to know some of his catch phrases.

But I don’t know the man personally and I know he loves his dogs and I know Rush Limbaugh likes him a lot so maybe he’s a very nice guy when he’s not on the air.

So many things with Mister Trump only add up if he's intentionally undermining the GOP for the upcoming election.

One example: He's announced that he has "investigators" looking into Mister Obama's BC. Only a liar would announce this, as telegraphing such an investigation would destroy it's advantage of stealth and cause any investigatee to bunker up and start the shredder.

(Would a jealous spouse ever announce that he's hiring a P.I. to follow his wife?)

This thread is mature, so I'll repeat observation on a subsequent thread.

‘I stand by what I said.”

And you’re still an idiot. You want civil war, you think the deaths of perhaps MILLIONS of people is the only option. You are the definition of a keyboard warrior, when faced with a gun you’d run and hide.

Trump is so liberal that he is against Paul Ryan’s budget. Trump says it will hurt seniors. That’s how liberal Trump is, unless he doesn’t know that Ryan’s budget is for Americans UNDER 55 years of age, and if that’s the case, Trump doesn’t know the basic facts.

Just remember, all radio hosts are in the entertainment industry, not the conservative industry. Rush is the only one who admits that he is in the business of making money, but that is what they are there to do.

Levin, while I like his show I was and remain very disappointed that he never educated his listeners to what the birther issue involved.

He’s not rude to Conservatives, ever. He’s rude to stupid drones and Libs. And they deserve it.
