On Tuesdays radio program, Conservative Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin chastised Donald Trump for insisting that the Republican primary system is rigged. The system is not rigged, Levin said, and yet Mr. Trump sounds like an entitled liberal demanding delegates from Colorado without having put in the work to win them. It sounds like Mr. Trump is demanding delegate welfare, said Levin.
The delegate appointment rules in most of these primaries have been established for nearly a century. In Colorado, for example, the rules for this primary process have been in place since 1912. Has the system been corrupt for 100 years? asked Levin. No. This has never been a pure democracy explained Levin. We have a federalist system, and the states determine the rules for their primaries. Its the candidates job to navigate those rules.

Now you can see full well who Levin really serves.
Was he yelling at his listeners when he said it?
So Levin controls a website that is basically an arm of the Cruz campaign, with no mention of the conflicts of interest that riddle this website, and even Levin fails to reveal that his son-in-law is a full time staffer and that he has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from a Pro-Cruz SuperPac.
So, after all of this, Levin has the nerve to tell us Colorado isn't rigged, when he is one of the most corrupt radio hosts around.
Paid schill.
“Its the candidates job to navigate those rules.”
Lol, so it’s rigged for an inside the beltway politician, and against an outsider.
Thanks for clearin’ that up, Mark!
Apparently the obvious contridiction of ordering people to die for what you tell them they're not allowed to have themself doesn't register with people like Levin.
Levin: The GOP Primary System is Not Rigged
says Levin, who has been recently exposed as a GOPe tool.
Really Mark? In Pennsylvania the voters get to choose 17 of the 71 delegates. In Colorado they canceled the statewide vote and then the party insiders decided who got the delegates. Mark you can go to hell.
Holy crap.
Looks like Levin has turned into a complete GOPe tool.
Sad. Used to like him....
I’m glad I stopped listening to Levin a while back.
The common sense answer should be “Let the voters vote and whomever gets the most votes gets the most delegates. Any other system is innately corrupt, whether it’s winner-take-all or proportionate.”
One wonders what his comments would be if the same process had gone against his preferred candidate.
Disappointed.
I can’t stand listening to this guy, and his books were underwhelming. That’s the end for both.
But it’s real simple: people vote for local elected officials on the same ballot they vote for President (or presidential convention delegates or whatever-the-hell). The point is, they vote for their choice and expect their vote to count. And in cases like Colorado, it didn’t.
That’s wrong and it’s going to be fixed, one way or the other. This is just the start of a revolt against a corrupt process and corrupt political apparatus that has been brewing for a long time, and sooner or later, it is going to change and get fixed. Every vote matters!
So than every State should follow suit. F you Levin...
Ben Shapiro, Michelle Fields, Liz Mair?
That should cover it.
Baghdad Bob Levin.
Now, I kind of understand. He was controlled opposition like so many others.
Levin sure has been serving up a lot of self serving lies lately.
Its a representative republic and always has been. Only a Trump supporter wouldn’t know that.
Levin, you are the enemy, plain and simple. This from a former listener.
