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.”Mark Levin On ‘Airhead’ Donald Trump: ‘Does This Guy Sound Stupid Or What?’
You mean the actual crimes Levin documents on a daily basis?
I find the whole BC thing to be a red herring in comparison to the wholesale corruption that is taking place before our very eyes.
Yeah, hey, and Ann Coulter is promoting a new book!
I’ve listened to his show probley more than you have my friend.
“Thank me very much”
I’ve always wanted to call him and say he needs to not hold back and tell us how he really feels about the issues....
It’s like my home football team, when their good I love them, when they aren’t I’ll point out where ai feel they are wrong. this is what I am doing here.
I can’t tell you teh times I have hoped he was going to share with us what he found concerning the BC issue.
Nothing, zip, zero. It’s an insult to me as a listener and a fan.
Sorry but I like Trump only because he has come out swinging like no other Republican. He is getting the issues out in the public. We have so many Repubs that want to be PC. Let him stir the pot. Now his comments on Ryans budget were warranted....why come out and show our cards, make Obama and the Dems show theirs first. Right now we have no one that is stepping up that shows any emotion or passion....Let him speak.
Remind me to never pick Mark Levin for my dodgeball team.
What Levin knows about economics and fiscal policy could be put into a thimble, where it would then rattle around like a ball bearing in a railroad boxcar, the same as Obama, and for the same reason: they’re both lawyers.
Trump is certainly an egotistical blowhard, but he knows a bit more about business and finance than these parasitic lawyers who have been bloviating over theoretical policy for the last two decades and driving our economy into a ditch on vapors.
In 2008 Levin was all in for Romney (Trump lite). Guess I’ll skip Levin’s advice and think for myself...
right we have time to get rid of Trump, heck we should claim Trump isn’t a republican
Does that mean you think Trump's a Conservative or should be the GOP's nominee in 2012? No.
Levin and others should let Trump soften the target for the actual Conservative candidate to strike the death blow in 2012.
Christie and Trump don't want to go on Levin's show because they couldn't handle it, which means they're not serious contenders. Fine. Move on. But in the mean time, let them expose Obama for the fraud/fool he is.
>> “Does This Guy Sound Stupid Or What?” <<
.
Yes he does, but that’s usually what happens when a statist tries to play conservative.
Spoiled little boy thinks he can have whatever he wants.
Basically he said Trumps a good guy, a regular guy, and that regular guys can **** up, and I dont know whats in his heart.
Rush is still covering for the guys lack of prowess on the issues.
Trump is great on the Debt to china topic, but this BS of we should just take Libyas oil? WTF are we even doing in Libya?
People are still beating up bush over Iraq.
Libya ponied up their WMD quick.
We have No Business in Libya, let alone stealing their oil out right.
Trump is acting like a loose cannon.
Obama too.
Levin will document it all.
“I gotta wonder if these commentators and supposedly conservative politicians are trying to bury the obumber eligibility issue because they are afraid of the consequence if the truth ever does come out. You know, like open warfare in the streets or race riots.”

In my opinion, if Obozo finally shows a real birth certificate, it shows him to be an immature brat for holding out so long. It is a high price for him to pay to
keep up this charade.
I have no idea what the REAL certificate says, but it has to be very damaging.
It is sad to see the “holier then thou” crowd demeaning
the birthers, when the Obozo machine has NEVER given a reason for not showing the real birth certificate.
I refuse to believe that it is a petty issue, and it pains me to see those on the right ridicule the birthers.
It hasnt gotten traction in 3 years.
yeah, let’s make him our enemy now. That’s smart. pure unadulterated conservative genius.
I gave up Levin under GWB BUT I am glad he is speaking the truth on this, and saying what should be obvious to all. Trump is just another rich liberal socialist.
You must be living in an alternate universe.
