Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a conservative and friend of Free Republic

Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a great constitutional conservative and great friend of Free Republic. Doesn't post much anymore but has had an account here (holdonnow) from nearly the beginning. He stood up for FR when his good friend Hannity was running us down. Also when O'Reilly accused us of not moderating our forum good enough against racism.

I hate to see our good friend getting trashed on FR. I understand why people are upset with him over his position against Trump, but best advice I can give is if you can't stand him, don't listen. I had to quit listening to Beck several years ago after he went nuts, and now rarely tune in Limbaugh. I click on the Mark Levin Show, maybe once per week, just to see if our old trusted ally is back. Sadly, he's still missing in action.

I pray that Rush and Mark come to their senses pretty soon and realize that the primaries are over and the great constitutional conservative Ted Cruz lost. Badly.

We can't go back and we cannot replace our candidate. It's Trump or Hillary. We have to do all we possibly can to make sure Hillary is defeated! And that starts with not bad-mouthing OUR candidate.

There are no do overs and no crying in politics.

Notice that I said "OUR" candidate. This is not like when the GOPe with their big donor bucks installed one of their own sure-losers as the Republican candidate (McCain, Romney, et al) and then told us to suck it up. Which most of us did, even Levin and Limbaugh, because we knew the damage that Obama would do to our country. And he did. And Hillary's damage will be even more severe because she'll be building on Obama's slide into godless socialism and she'll have an immediate shot at packing the courts with godless liberal activists. These judges will be with us for a lifetime. And their rulings for generations. She'll also grant amnesty and voting rights to millions of illegals and throw open our borders to millions more. And then fling the borders wide open for the Muslims. Yup. Sharia law would be coming to a country near you. And the failing Obamacare? No problem. HillaryCare's single payer system will straighten that right out. And she'll save our planet from "climate change" by killing off all our capitalist industries.

Trump was voted in by we the rebellious grassroots voters who are sick and tired and fed up and said NO MAS to the political ruling class and their open borders donors.

This is a voter rebellion and Trump is OUR champion.

We fully intend to crush Hillary and the uniparty in November and reclaim America for AMERICANS!!

Why did we choose Trump to be our champion:

Secure the borders. Build the wall. Enforce the law. End sanctuary cities. Do whatever is humanly possible in deporting as many illegals as we possibly can and or dry up their prospects by enforcing the law and many of them will leave on their own volition.

Slap a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration until we can find out what in the hell is going on! Meanwhile, bomb the shit out of ISIS. And take their oil. And find out what's going on in the mosques.

Rebuild the military!

Throw out Obama's illegal/unconstitutional executive orders and executive agreements. Repeal Obamacare!

Get a handle on trade deals and make sure Americans come first!

Cut the taxes, cut the spending, cut the regulations, cut the government; return the powers and functions reserved to the states back to the states per the constitution and the 10th amendment.

And it's not just about the constitution and national security:

End the ridiculous war on coal, gas & oil, bring back manufacturing. Drill, baby, drill; mine, baby, mine; build, baby, build, farm, baby, farm, produce, baby, produce. The Business of America is business.

Strengthen our economy and create a business friendly environment!

Jobs, baby, jobs!!

Set our people free and let them produce and prosper!!

This is the voter rebellion we've all been longing for. Even bigger than the tea party. Pray Levin and Rush join us. We need their full-throated support to ensure the defeat of the corrupt, America-hating, capitalism-hating, God-hating Hillary and the election of OUR candidate. Donald Trump!!

One of the slogans from the America revolution was:

Join or die!!

Another:

Don't tread on me.

And who can forget:

Give me Liberty or give me death!!

Yes. Trump trashed Cruz. However, Cruz and his allies started the war when a Cruz affiliated PAC posted semi-nude photos of Melania Trump from a 1990s magazine. After that, Trump went full bore against the Senator from Texas. What Trump did was the equivalent of what the U.S. did to Japan in retaliation for Pearl Harbor. At least the Japanese surrendered unconditionally and converted to a parliamentary democracy. Cruz and the never-Trump crowd refuse to recognize their defeat.

You give talk radio far far too much credit. If they were as influential in presidential elections as some surmise then both McCain and Romney would have won.

I am not in lockstep with Trump he says things that are in line with what Bernie was for (trade tarrif wars, minimum wage) that if Hope all would be very critical of. So are we just supposed to shut our mouths and convince our ears that we heard something entirely different? Nope we aren’t liberals, we pull ours along but hold him to account.

Again I and many others are voting for the guy but that doesn’t mean we stop being critical

Jim its your board and I will repect that and tone my Levin thrashing but one more dose.

Levin is getting the hate researved for apostates and it is well deserved.

He had turned in to a mean snide snarky man.

I listened to the whole transposition from sane Mark in a Crazy Cruzer and daily he was insulting me and people like me.

He set up all sorts of crappy arguments that undercut his previously pretty high standards for debate.

He is damaged goods and now lives in Medved Shapiro land. Cruz is/was an asshole and he was one of them trying to shove this phony down the electorates throat. And indignant when we pushed back.

I know Mark is not a bad guy but I've thought Trump was Awesome since last August and initially so did Rush and Mark.

But then when Trump start acting like a man. Telling the truth in a non PC way that even Rush and Levin can't match - they went squish or jealous or both.

Trump is not letting anybody other than Trump and the American people drive the agenda

Mark got manipulated and used by Ted Cruz. Its like defending a psychic after they have been exposed as a fraud.

I got pissed when he started mocking posters on sites that needed to run fundraising events - then he went to commerial! - I specifically remember this one because it was reference to FR because the day before we were ripping him a new on here. And I believe it was toward the end of a fundraiser. I think that is the day he went from friend status to quisling in training, in my mind.

Rush - man I want to write him a letter or something. I'm really disappointed in him.

Rush's support for Trump is very measured he is very rapidly loosing esteem in mine and many other eyes. His show used to be like the tv show M.A.S.H reruns, in so far as you could tune in at any time, and it would be funny or interesting you didn't have watch from the start. You could JIP it.

Now when I tune in I find myself switching over to that slob --- Dennis Prager (I've seen the inside of his Hidden Hills House - yuck!) Oh man - wheres the FM.

Trump rocks and is so very talented at all this. Most of us can see that

The owner of the site is supporting Levin too, so I guess I’m in good company.

Exactly right. . . But as far as I’m concerned, he can start to get behind Trump after Labor Day and I still won’t listen again. . . what he has done in terms of giving support to the Never Trumpers is despicable. Too little too late.

Not wise to alienate half (or more) of your listening audience. He can certainly make his views known without bashing Trump’s followers.

As a Cruz candidate, I now can see that he was “The Manchurian Candidate”. He is “all in” for the blending of countries ala the EU. For nation building and corruption as usual. I no longer believe that he believes his own stands, and that comes from his close ties to Glenn Beck, who could not be more obvious with his venal hatred of Trump. Sorry Glenn, Levin and Ted, to NOT choose is to choose. You three have chosen Hillary with the works of your mind and your hands.

Levin and Rush should also consider this: Gov. Pence will be next in line for President. Trump has given us Gov. Pence as a gift we never could have gotten through the primary process ourselves.

I agree. Genius. Otherwise, we would have had someone like Carly, Marco, etc. Pence has substance.

Thank you very much. I know that Mark Levin is a patriot who loves liberty and loves America. He’s disappointed that his guy didn’t make it, but you’ve just got to get over that stuff. We all know that Hillary will destroy liberty in America if she gets to appoint the judges and control the agenda.

Pray he opens his eyes and sees what we see in Trump. Trump has an incredible conservative platform that we have’t seen in our lifetimes. And he fights! He doesn’t let the libs or the media or the pundits push him around. He’s no Ford, Bush, Dole, McCain or Romney that’s for sure. He’s not Reagan either, but he towers head over shoulders over all other politicians that I’ve ever seen in energy, drive, ambition, effectiveness, delivery and just plain old likability. Like Reagan, he’s connecting with patriotic working people and they love him. With his platform, drive and and potential, I do believe we can start turning this ship around—if it is still within God’s will to save this once great Judeo-Christian nation.

I was a doubting Thomas and held back in the beginning until I got to understand him a littler better, but I now endorse him 100% and pray he defeats Hillary. We need this man in the White House to get a handle on immigration, trade, jobs, the economy, the military, national security, national sovereignty and, yes, to defend our constitutional rights, including the second amendment and religious freedom!

And we need Levin and Rush to lead the way on talk radio. They have great followings and we need them all firmly on board if we are to save this nation from the godless commiecrats.

Our Creator God who granted us life also granted us liberty. The primary difference between us and our opponents on the other side is they do not believe that simple truth. They think that government is supreme and it should dole out freedom (or deny it) as they wish. They deny the very principles our nation was founded on. The Declaration and the Constitution mean nothing whatsoever to these traitors. Nor does God’s Word.

Levin preaches all this stuff far better than I could ever dream of doing. Just wish he were back in the fold.

Prayers up for America.

Go, Trump!!

I stopped listening to Levin about the same time I stopped listening to Beck. Too histrionic and almost manic. I tuned in again just the other night. No change or not much. Maybe a TAD softer on Trump, but not enough to really help him win.

Somehow, this Aug 17 piece in PJMedia by cultural critic, screenwriter and author Michael Walsh didn't make it onto the Forum or the MAGA list, but it's worth a read by any lingering doubters:

Because Levin is a kind of PC conservative who judges all through race and minority treatment and is hypersensitive himself I’ve noticed

He hurls the anti Semite invective way too easy ....cause it works and it’s easy

“THERE I SAID IT!!!!!!”

....that’s what he does after he labels someone anti Semitic....without fail.....sometimes he’s right but other times it’s just a smear

Eloquently written, dearest Jim.

I share your prayers calling for Mark Levin (and Rush Limbaugh) to "return to the fold."

They both know that Election 2016 is a "do or die." I cannot and shall not ever be able to get my head around the 'thinking or reasoning' that a person would have to employ to even imagine sHrillary the better choice over Donald Trump!

In fact, I've come around to think that Mr. Trump will prove to be one of OUR greatest presidents. I'm ALL IN for TRUMP!

Lord, hear our prayers.

God speed, Donald Trump - Resolute American Patriot!



P.S.
I'm glad to read datricker's account of Mark Levin yammering about "fundraising," given that heretofore, I'd only read posts by others that they had "heard about it."

Glenn Beck has gotten lost in the Horse Latitudes. I think of e-mailing him - but to what avail? I would quote that famous commentator - Bob Ireland - Politics is the science of compromise! Perhaps it stinks, but that is the way it is in this world. Without compromise one ends up with tyranny!

If Jesus Christ was nominated for U.S. Prez he would have the wisdom to decline. It is ok for Beck to stand firmly on HIS principles... but to ask millions of others to stand on his principles is to surrender the republic to dictatorship.

If Trump is lying - which I pray he is not - we still would not be as bad off as we will if a world-class gangster takes over the country - which will not be a country much longer without definable borders - AND if we lose the Supreme Court to a Democrap - which many say we would lose for a generation: BALONEY! We will lose the Republic forever! No tyranny has ever been overthrown by popular vote!!!
