“Cruz has NO chance. Why would Levin wreck his reputation on Teddy’s funeral pyre? Glenn Beck is a deranged drug addict, so sense doesn’t enter into it. But Levin? He just acted like an idiot.”

Read the letter. And as mbrfl in post 123 noted that house is NOT as rambled in the letter, quoting: “...but the house is STILL THERE. I repeat, the house is STILL there.”
(wikipedia.org/wiki/Vera_Coking)
Repeating emphatically for a fact that which is not, is the height of single-minded focus, dam the torpedoes, Trump or none. As noted by many, lemmings, lashing out like their proponent TV Star who has never done anything wrong (as he has stated on the record). Wind driven snow this TV Star.
As Dana says, Anger is a motivator, but not a solution. Trump has us fired up, but you HAVE to have more than “Make America GR8 again”... and the solution is certainly NOT doing deals with the ‘other side’.
Love to see the Trumpbots energy focused on the ‘other side’, but you know, winning at all costs is TV Star’s MO.
i hear you and understand, but note, i am NOT a single issue voter. AND i am concerned about Trump’s previous influence buying and pedaling with ‘all sides’.
i cannot imagine anyone giving ANYTHING to the Clinton’s EVER if they have any sense of right and wrong.
Plus, i ask, who would you trust to be more for ‘life’, Cruz or Trump?
for me, that answer has no margin of error.
Serious question, has Trump proposed eliminating any govt program or spending? Has he proposed cutting any govt program or spending?
I know he wants to raise taxes, but what about spending?
That was it for me. Ted is a disingenuous opportunist, and part of the Washington Cartel he so likes to rail against.
Go Trump.
Yeah, like all these bandwagon lemmings who are unwilling to acknowledge or discuss Trump’s support of wildly socialist views on things like national healthcare and obama’s “stimulus” are in position to tell off Mark Levin about constitutional conservatism. This is mass hysteria on parade.
___________________________________________________________
I, and many other Trump supporters, have been discussing Trump on the issues but no matter how many times we post PROOF that Trump NO LONGER supports national healthcare or truth about other misconceptions, misrepresentations, or outright lies, Trump haters continue to post the lies as truth.
When you want to have an honest discussion let me know.
We are in a war with Marxist globalists and we are at war with Islam and we are losing both wars. The country needs a leader that is unabashedly an American first. A leader that will defend America, rebuild the military, secure the border, defend Christianity, bring back manufacturing jobs and deport illegals. Prior to Trump getting in, NO ONE was talking about any of these things. NO ONE.
If we do not fix immigration this election cycle the country is done, the constitution is dead are we the people are screwed. That is why we the people are getting behind Trump. It got zero to do with right/left. It's survival.
-— Now Mark Levin, a hero to the conservative movement is being attacked on FR for the cardinal sin of supporting a brave conservative who single handily has stood up to the GOPe.
Would never have believed it, but there it is -—
At least it’s entertaining.
“Serious question, has Trump proposed eliminating any govt program or spending? Has he proposed cutting any govt program or spending?”
Not that I’ve heard.
Frankly, there is one reason - scratch that, two reasons - I favor trump over cruz:
1. He is on record all across the country as committed to building a wall across the southern border and taking control of who comes into our country. Since he’s spent a lifetime building things around the world, I believe he can accomplish it. Only person in the race to do so. Both of these items are crucial.
2. He has spent a lifetime working with others to accomplish his goals - particulary politicos and foreign governments - and reached his goals. He has demonstrated through accomplishment that he can do that. Only person in the race to do so.
BONUS ITEM: he has thick skin, which he will need. Only person in the race to take heat like he has.
Now, I understand others may prioritize things differently. I wish he had cruz at his side to keep him on track with the Founders.
In the end, I believe we are probably too far gone as a country to recover by just electing a president. The States are the last resource. That may take more than a decade to get them lined up to make changes at a convention.
In the meantime, I prefer an outsider who gets things done and who people follow. I consider him a moderate nationalist. I think this is probably what the country wants and maybe the only one who can move us forward. I write that knowing a President Trump would deeply disappoint me on many fronts and drive me crazy in a thousand ways... but then they all do.
This is a time for triage and not a scalpel.
Wishing you the best.
Honestly, i have NO problems with a Trump presidency, especially on the issue of security and i cannot wait to see a physical wall on the southern border! Not some ‘security area’ with a ‘fence’.
Having said that, i REALLY do not like the use of ‘single’ item litmus tests for our candidates and rely on ‘history’.
Trump’s history is concerning to me, but again, he’s WAY better than any of the Dem’s and GOPe’s. The thoughts and comments on this thread the Cruz is GOPe is amazingly uninformed.
I do NOT like mischaracterizations, just like the letter noted in this thread. I read it and know it is reverse-engineered, and though i couldn’t possibly vet all the author’s points, there were enough that were disingenuous.
And to the author’s suggested point, there is NO WAY Levin is GOPe. She can disagree with him, but it seems stating ANY facts of TV Star’s previous ‘antics’ with the Left brands one with the indelible ink of heresy.
I agree to a large extent that Trump has raised issues that have been kicked around for some time, since the last Bush... He deserves credit for that, but does he do ‘deals’ with the other side if elected?
I am for FULL and UTTER rejection of ALL the last 8 years of Marxist rule in this country, not just ‘denouncing’, but holding EVERY DAM one of them responsible and punishing them to the FULL extent of the LAW. For me, that is the FIRST order of business, get those criminal prosecutions moving and also start building the ‘wall’.
i suspect, we are not far apart on ideology. Just how it is carried out maybe.
Thanks for posting this: I am now solidly pro-Trump.
I don’t understand the ‘will he do deals’ argument. Of course he will do ‘deals’. That is how our system of government is set up. Currently, the deals are so bad it hurts America. We need someone who can do better than what has been going on. By better, I don’t just mean someone who talks like Cruz, but never gets anything accomplished.
Also, the media can’t shut Trump down. If he encounters resistance with deal making, which he will, he will communicate directly with the people and it will resonate. Just like he is doing now. Just like Reagan did. And no, he is not Reagan. No one is. Reagan is dead and it is 2016.
“Love to see the Trumpbots energy focused on the ‘other side’, but you know, winning at all costs is TV Star’s MO.”
It seems that Cruz supporters are bent on depicting Trump supporters as “duped” or “not really Conservative” and just generally calling into question our very ability to think.
Until the last time I was “duped” by my own representatives in government, those “real Conservatives” like Ted Cruz who had my liberties and interests at heart, I would have considered myself a “real Conservative” It took a major shock to make me do enough soul searching to realize that me, myself and my self-congratulatory views as a “real Conservative” was the problem. People who love to point loudly and often to their Conservative credentials are exactly what has led us to believe that we only need to put our lives in their hands and everything will be a Conservative dream. If that’s so, why has my nation become a place where I can’t live out my beliefs and convictions anywhere in it without persecution? It’s because all those “real Conservatives” are nothing but talk and haven’t been for quite some time.
“Real Conservatives beat their chests about Common Core, Planned Parenthood, Gay Marriage, and all the things that make them “real”. Then when the opportunity comes to do something “real” about those things for their constituents; they fold, neatly and without fail, along unconservative, Liberal lines.
You so called “real Conservatives” are why no Conservative in this nation can any longer live according to their beliefs without persecution. “Real Conservatives” have sold us out, sacrificed us and our nation after promising us profusely to defend us. And you’ve done it time and time again. All the things that we hate as “real Conservatives” has been handed to us by “real cowards” who only give lip service to the term while selling us out.
And yet, you still hope to foist another dancing, equivocating Washington product on us by telling us that he’s a “real Conservative” and that if we’ll only elect him President everything will shift miraculously back to the nation of our dreams on DAY ONE!
That ship has sailed and the American people are done with your lies. Who knew that the general public had their own brains? I know you’d like to see us focus our energy on the other side. Sorry! We’re going to focus on ours for a change!
Oh, one last thing i bet we can agree too, i am still PISSED that Bush didn’t SMOKE OUT the rats and HAMMER the Clinton Criminal Enterprise when he got into office!
Because of his ‘let live’ GOPe actions, we have Hellory still with us. AND i certainly do NOT want to see Obammy after 362 more days having ANY more time for Community Orgainizin’!
I WANT that bastard and his minions to be prosecuted for ALL the illegal activities above ANYTHING else(IRS, Fast&Furious, pen&phone EO’s, etc). IF we don’t, that egotistical SOB will NOT go away. Man, did we ever take it in the a$$ because Reagan slipped away... his voice after office sure would have helped.
i hear you and feel your ‘anger’. I agree it is justified.
I trust Cruz and i know you do not. I do not dislike Trump. But i fear the ‘deal making’ after 8+ years of Marxist style governing and largess in spending and taxation.
Managing a ‘better’ government is much different than holding a philosophical view of individual liberty and constitutional guidance. I don’t just want a better ‘manager’ who says he can manage better.
For me, the issue is larger, it is the direction of the country towards socialism and effort no longer equates to potential. One gets free food and medical by just their ability to ‘exist’. Even Clinton was forced to end welfare as we knew it... but it’s back with a vengeance.
Again, i appreciate and understand the frustration, but honestly, i can be for Cruz and not against Donald. Neither of these men have done me harm and neither have been complicit in the last 8 years of policies that have us feeling the PC of persecution.
i applaud your energy, and only suggest we focus it on the ‘other side’, otherwise i’d be with you in starting a third party and shutting down the GOPe.
and i voted for him twice, being Texas born myself. Nice man, bad values on economics and the border.
i regret daily that Reagan wasn’t around to sort his a$$ out.
These days on about everything I hear and examine a person's political motivations when they attack.
Trump came out on vaccine-autism controversy a while back, and I think that may be what got her attention.
I did not follow this and have no clue of the history of this movement. But thought this may be applicable to the discussion.

Dear SB277 Opponents: Tim Donnelly and Lauren Stephens Killed the Movement
http://rightondaily.com/2015/10/dear-sb277-opponents-tim-donnelly-and-lauren-stephens-killed-the-movement/ - October 17, 2015
I saw the anguish of the women who never understood how Lauren Stephens lied to them during the effort. Some still do not comprehend how Tim Donnelly lied to them. What we see today is Tim Donnelly’s narcissism on display as he continues to spin every way he can to avoid an apology, while the sociopath Stephens has tried to throw him and others under the bus to save herself.
Let me apologize to the women who fear for their children’s safety. We tried to help you. We tried to warn you. I am sorry that I can’t fix this… Just make sure you inform people so Tim Donnelly and Lauren Stephens can’t hurt anyone else.
Lauren Stephens filed the referendum based on a paranoid conspiracy she created in her head. She lied repeatedly and used people. She broke people’s hearts and got Tim Donnelly involved because Donnelly has tax liens, bankruptcies and owes people money.
Donnelly got money to keep his failing radio show on the air for a while longer while the SB277 Referendum failed miserably. While Tim is too broken of a person to even apologize or be honest with himself about what he did – Lauren Stephens does not care one bit.
She’s off to her next scam.
Levin has totally discredited himself . I’m surprised he’s not in the National Review lineup against Trump .
