I seriously recommend that you take the time to read or reread Charles Dickens' Tale of Two Cities and begin to understand the psychosis which took over the French revolution and led to a Reign of Terror. It is not too late to regain some sense of perspective.
Since Rush Limbaugh for all intents and purposes endorsed Marco Rubio before he dropped out, I would say that he is both very mistaken and very sold out. Though perhaps calling him a sell-out is inaccurate, because he never was the anti-establishment figure people have made him out to be.
Limbaugh has always been a fake opposition to the establishment - behind the sometimes funny and incendiary rhetoric, there was always a loyalty to the RNC and its anointed candidates.
I can't comment on Levin, I've always found his persona and voice to irritating to listen to, but what little I've seen/heard from him seems like RNC boilerplate too (although, to his credit, he's stronger on the illegal immigration issue than Rush and other RNC mouthpieces).
As to the bigger issue of Trump being right, I can't say that I'm fully sold on Trump or trust him to do even half of what he promises. However, I do know that I've grown to dislike him less than I dislike his political establishment opposition. I also know that I used to have a lot of respect for Cruz, until he threw in his lot with party hacks like Lindsey Graham and Neil Bush.
We now add, as I predicted some time ago, the names Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin to the list of people who have to be wrong so that Donald Trump can be right. Worse, these people are not merely mistaken they are sold out.
It is painful to know how intelligent and learned you are and see myself across a divide from you. It certainly gives me pause, which should provide some comfort on your side of this divide, that I’m not a numb robot or blinded by emotion.
Seriously, believe me, I am stunned by the new admissions about Rush. He doesn’t have to be wrong for my choice of candidate to be right. And what did it wasn’t even Rush’s choice(s) of candidate. It was for me 100% that Rush dined with Schumer et al in secret, and did his bidding, against his audience’s best interest, all while he bashes him as Chuck U on his show. I gave him a chance that Monday to come clean, maybe say it was only that one time he cheated on his audience, only because he was wowed by power coming a’courting. Instead he doubled down, lied, danced, defended, and was hostile to us about it. Called the people who didn’t like the sound of his defense “haters.” That did it.
The Rush I thought I knew would have been a decent human being, loyal to us who made him. He would have responded to that exposé in one of two ways:
1. Explained how it was all a lie, that the NYT facts were wrong, he went to dinner once on a different occasion for a different reason, or that he never attended such a dinner at all. And proved that they were lying about him.
Or
2. Did a full on mea culpa, confessed he let them sway him, apologize to us, promise to never get swept up in it again.
There was no other response that would fit the patriotic lovable fuzz ball he was supposed to be.
As for Levin, he doesn’t seem to realize that the evil statism knows no party. And it barely knows individual states (countries). Control today comes from a central power that may or may not have any US interests at heart. Clinging to terms like “conservatism” is a game played to make us feel we have any part of our country still. Cruz doesn’t have the power to protect his family even if he were a good guy. He can’t pull off escaping oligarchy rule. He can’t even pull off the nom. Levin is doubling down but not for the benefit of us in the actual danger we are already in.
