Is the Trump Campaign Trying to Intimidate Mark Levin?
Redstate ^ | 1/21/16 | Leon H. Wolf

Posted on 01/21/2016 6:18:04 PM PST by TBBT

Mark Levin deserves a ton of credit for the work he has done in the last couple of weeks. Although he was initially pretty friendly to Trump, the disgusting liberal Democrat attacks that Trump has started against Ted Cruz have made Levin realize what a snake Trump is, and he has called out Trump accordingly.

Unlike certain other talk radio figures, Levin has always been willing to frankly admit error, and when he does so, his anger can be a sight to behold.

Well, Levin revealed today on air that one of the campaigns has been digging around for dirt on his personal life, trying to shut him up.

Listen to the audio here:

His ex-wife probably was tired of his yelling all the time.


I know I was. I couldn’t listen to him even if I agreed about the content.

Her son does not work for the Cruz campaign. He works in Cruz’s senate office. Levin’s dad supports Trump. Should Levin lay out all the political ties of his family and friends as well as their family and friends? I hardly think Levin is influenced by anyone other than his own study.

Who here lets their family members or the family members of people close to them dictate their political positions? No one.

If Levin’s soon to be son in law already works for Ted Cruz’ Senate office, it would be pretty sweet if Ted won the Presidency.

Think about it.

What kind of access to the Presidency would Mark Levin have by stumping for him on the radio during the primary plus a son in law working for the future President.

yeah, that’s my mistake...I’ll claim that...been talking about campaigns all day.

You are correct, Levin is his own man. In fact he makes a point of that and tells you every day.

Whatever. A simple “oh by the way” avoids all of this. Be POed all you want.

He would not do that. Levin is quite well off financially. He is also not in the best of health.

The only thing that I am aware of in his future plans is that he may do a live video program at some point in the future.

I hope so. He’s the genius who vetted and gave us Supreme Court Justice Kennedy who is so concerned about gays having dignity and gave the deciding vote for gay marriage. Total fraud.

Somehow I doubt Trump is spending much time worrying about Mark Levin. Sounds like Mark does not think its Trump either.

That is a slanderous accusation!

That would be highly illegal.

You should ping the mod and get them to delete that offensive post or I will.

We already saw that with reporting that Levin’s third cousin’s wife’s hair dresser’s best friend or something worked for Sen. Cruz’ campaign, while ignoring that the establishment’s whore branstad’s son is head of the ethanol lobby.

I am thankful for the good comments here on FR. I heard Levin on the radio today. He was very upset and said, “I will not be intimidated. I will find out who is causing” the intimidation. He will discover the facts.

Mark loves “conservatism” and hates “populism.”

I personally like the populism of Andrew Jackson.

My guess is that Levin is repulsed by Trump, simply because Levin thinks he could be a much better president than Trump but lacks the funds to campaign. Thus, he is upset, jealous and feeling left out.

Mark, be thankful for Trump, not jealous and bitter.

I doubt it. More like Rubio’s style.

> “Levin is a staunch conservative and anyone with half a brain knew who’d favor months ago. Why are people acting like he’s being shady?” <

I agree. He wasn’t obliged to disclose information about his fiancee and her son merely because that son is working in Cruz’s office. Levin is taking the positions you’d expect him to take, and giving good reasons for taking them. If he suddenly started praising a candidate he’d opposed in the past, and it was discovered that his fiancee’s son had recently acquired a job working for that candidate, then it would be a different story. Then some explanation would be needed. That’s not the case.

Levin is only forthcoming when it suits him.

Sadly true Calisurfer. When trust is lost, as it has been for me toward both Cruz and Levin, it is useful to ask "Who does this kerfuffle benefit? Does Levin get sympathy, which he needs if more understand his blatant lies about settled law, Minor v. Happersett 88 U.S. 162 (1875):

At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.

In 1875 it was the unanimous decision of the Supreme Court that not only were Cruz, Rubio, Jindal, Haley, and McCain, not natural born citizens, but that they were aliens or foreigners by the naturalization laws in force in 1875. Congress eliminated the need for naturalization paperwork for those born on our soil, but Cruz was born in Canada, so unless his mother filed naturalization papers, his U.S. citizenship is questionable, and natural born U.S. citizenship nonsense. If we are a nation of laws, Cruz eligibility to be a Senator is questionable and ineligibility to the presidency certain. http://www.examiner.com/article/proof-that-ted-cruz-did-not-become-a-us-citizen-at-birth

Levin, when he deigns to talk at all about the issue, usually resorting to name-calling to avoid having to give a coherent answer, has cited the 1790 Naturalization Act from our 1st Congress. If you read that act you will see in the margin "Repealed by Act of March 29, 1795". If you read carefully, as good lawyers presumably do, even the 1790 Act doesn't say what Levin and Cruz claim. it clearly states "...shall be considered as natural born citizens". Bill Clinton would have caught that immediately because the word "is" is not in the sentence. It means the child of citizens born outside our borders is a naturalized citizen, with with all the protections and privileges of a natural born citizen. Madison likely changed the wording in 1795 anticipating that it might be misconstrued. He was right - misconstrued by Levin and Cruz and Tribe, probably for political reasons.

Cruz is losing two to nothing at Harvard Law, where professor Einar Elhaug, along with, if your read his statement to the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings about McCain's eligibility carefully. Larry Tribe understands the two citizen parent requirement. Larry's point was to blow smoke around the sovereign U.S. soil requirement. Levin's mission appears to be blowing smoke around the Constitution, which, as much as I agree with most of what Cruz and Levin claim to stand for, or against, is inexcusable, and intentional "Disinformation" (thank you Ion Pacepa - look him up on Amazon).
