Note: If you don't like the ratings for any reason, please contact Conservative Review's Editor-in-Chief, "The Great One," Mark Levin. But I have to warn you that you may get this response from him: "GET OFF THE PHONE, YOU BIG DOPE!"
Bug eyed, barking chihuahua with spittle on the window.
Trump should listen to Levin
Like seriously
Seriously?! No, Levin is an idiot and HE, Levin, screwed up. What a whinner. Can’t stand his shrill voice and absurd commentary.
Lots of threads about this exact topic yesterday. I guess we’re not done imploding from within.
Let’s all fall down before Levin the Wise for he hath declared what he hath declared.

Trump's Record on Free-market Issue: (from the Conservative Review)
Trump has a terrible record on free market issues. The only bright spot is the Federal Reserve's quantitative easing, but this glimmer is countermanded by his repeated support for bailing out Wall Street and the auto industry, and increased stimulus spending. Of particular concern is Trump's belief that the government can use eminent domain powers to seize private property in the name of private economic development. This comes as no surprise, given his support for using eminent domain to profit his own company.
Trump supported the Supreme Court’s 2005 decision in Kelo v. City of London, allowing public authorities to seize private land for economic development by private investors; Trump said, “I happen to agree with [the decision] 100 percent.” (National Review) This is no surprise given Trump’s attempt to use eminent domain in his own line of work. (Institute for Justice)
Trump supported President Obama’s 2009 stimulus, saying: “The word stimulus is probably not used in its fullest…you know, certain of the things that were given weren't really stimulus. They were pork, as we call it, or they were gifts to certain people. But overall, I think he's [President Obama] doing very well. You do need stimulus and you do have to keep the banks alive.” (CNN)
Trump supported TARP, saying, "You had to do something to shore up the banks, because ... you would have had a run on every bank." (CNN)
Trump supported the 2008 auto bailout, saying, “I think the government should stand behind them 100 percent. You cannot lose the auto companies. They’re great. They make wonderful products.” He also said that the federal government could “easily save the companies.” (Daily Caller)
Trump criticized the Federal Reserve’s intervention in the debt market, saying quantitative easing creates “phony numbers” that mislead the marketplace and “will not ultimately benefit the economy. The dollar will go down in value and inflation will start rearing its ugly head.” (CNBC)
Donald Trump has a history of using eminent domain to complete business deals. Multiple times Trump has supported the use of government agencies to take possession of homes and businesses for use in his private business plans. Eminent domain seizures are reserved only for public use of property rather than abuse by the government taking property from one individual and giving to another. (Washington Post)
Donald Trump has sought and received crony capitalist tax breaks for his commercial properties in New York. These tax breaks, and even an abatement, force the property taxes of other property owners to rise at the expense of the connected. Special treatment for one business or industry over another with the tax code conflicts with free market principles. (National Review)
In 2009, Trump supported Barack Obama's call for limits on the pay of executives. (CNN)
Levin should comment on more important things and not spin the 3 examples like the democrats are.
Even though I agree with Levin in this instance, I think it’s funny that when I or anyone points out levin’s total lack of integrity with his “I’m an inch from leaving the GOP” lie, all hell breaks loose.
but when he makes a true and provable statement about the sainted Donald, he is savaged with no reservation.
Has Levin chastised Cruz for back stabbing Trump first in some NY backroom PAC conference?
Levin has never had an original thought his material is mostly stolen from Rush and his persona is stolen from Savage
Trump is going to make America great again and I believe it wholeheartedly.
I thought the same thing about these comments, long before Levin (and Limbaugh) made these points. Pandering to Iowa about corn is simply not principled. Trump’s comments on Scalia were simply uninformed. He lost a lot, in my opinion, in these attacks.
...trash Conservative icon, Mark Levin.
Rush Limbaugh is saying the same thing.
So, Cruz, Levin, Limbaugh & Cruz supporting Freepers are just posers and Trump is the new standard bearer for T.E.A. Party Conservatives.
No Thanks Donald MeCain.
When a “conservative” candidate supports universal health care, Big Brother-type government surveillance, the PATRIOT ACT, eminent domain, and is against religious liberty, what he says about a Supreme Court justice or a political opponent is the least of my worries.
Screw everybody! Trump for President. The whole Supreme Court needs to review the Constitution and the many document our fore Fathers gave us. America is damn near lost and all of Government is screwing us. I’m now 84 and seen a lot of shi! under the bridge but this King Obama empire is the shit!est of them all.
And now Levin is the devil.
Some people need to get a grip.
I don’t listen to much talk radio but Levin happens to intersect fairly regularly with some of my drive time, so I hear him a bit. He has been a big Trump backer. I guess he is relearning the ancient lesson that populist loose cannon, firing indiscriminately against whatever ad hoc target surfaces today, will eventually fire the wrong way.
[Donald Trump Screwed Up.]
So did his poll numbers.
Wait, what? Did someone actually think he wasn’t going to? Wanna buy a bridge?
Baby Cruz can’t look after himself, he need Rush and Levin to protect him. Are they going to protect him for rest of his life? Seriously !!
Trump is not calling anyone, he is fighting his fight himself.
