Is the Trump Campaign Trying to Intimidate Mark Levin?

Redstate ^ | 1/21/16 | Leon H. Wolf

[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:

[miss marmelstein]

It’s awful. You can’t believe anything you read because it’s debunked halfway through the comments. I thought Levin had accused (and had evidence!) that Trump was leaning on him in some way.

[CatherineofAragon]

"Levin already said it wasn’t Trump."

I was listening.

He said he didn't think it was the Trump campaign, but that he could be wrong.

[Cold Heat]

You are wrong, he should not have to deal with this sort of Shiite at all. He's not a politician. people listen to him for his opinions. When someone bring into a political Shiite storm the son of a woman you care a lot about for no particular reason, then yes. it's time to hit the I'm PO'd Button!

Multiple times..

[tennmountainman]

Oh, the manure is piling up. That’s for sure.

Even Levin is on the ropes.

A wild election indeed.

[Cold Heat]

Oh I did not infer that this came from trump so I agree on that point, but I do think it came from a supporter or supporter group..

[ripnbang]

Was Mark yelling at his listeners again?

[dforest]

Nah, but this is a Redstate TDS sufferer and he just wants to make the accusation even though Levin said he doesn’t think it is Trump.

[Yaelle]

What is a future family member, and I thought Levin was married? I guess he divorced?

[ripnbang]

Is that like, “depends on what the definition of “is”, is”?

[ripnbang]

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

[CatherineofAragon]

No, it’s two clearly different scenarios, unless you’re a low-information type.

Oh...

[dforest]

You know, I see the accusation that Levin is making as a deflection from the real fact here.

Levin should have disclosed his ties to Cruz. If he would have been honest, he wouldn’t have this problem now.

[ripnbang]

So you think it’s the same, then?

[odawg]

“So Trump obviously has a problem with conservatives too. He is a snake and total slime.”

Well, genius, did it ever occur to you that Trump is going after a competitor? Jeb! is not a conservative, and he went after Jeb! and anyone else who crossed him. That is what happens in campaigns. Why do you think Cruz is so special? Is Trump supposed to roll over and allow his coronation, as Hillary thinks she is also entitled to? There has NEVER been a candidate for the office of the presidency, except Washington, who slid into office unopposed.

[tennmountainman]

Yep. The issue is disclosure.

RE:”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. “

I caught Levin saying that while driving home tonight,

He said he wasn't sure which one was doing it, yet.

Who bragged about his investigators digging up stuff in 2011?

Was Levin born in America? He better find his birth certificate fast.

“I will not vote for Trump if he is the nominee. I will stay home.”

Enjoy your evening at home.

[windsorknot]

Levin then said that he likes Trump and would vote for him if he was the nominee, BUT he disagrees with him DEEPLY about his policies and tactics.

I've heard him say it, but some Trump fanatics (not simply supporters) are offended, and have to make it personal. I respect Mark for sticking to his guns.

[kristinn]

There is no law being broken. The son of the fiance works at Cruz's Senate office according to Levin. If he did work for the campaign instead there would still be no law to be broken by Levin.

No need for Levin to recuse from supporting Cruz on air.

[GeaugaRepublican]

Except Levin stated on his show it wasn’t Trump. He actually said something akin to “think Capital Hill and the Establishment.”

There are many competitors who are looking to take over 2nd place.
