GOP Establishment Money Funding Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, Erick Erickson To Attack Donald Trump
Daily Caller ^ | 04/08/2016 | Roger Stone

Posted on 04/12/2016 6:45:58 PM PDT by VitacoreVision

The next time you hear Mark Levin on the radio, or watch Glenn Beck on TV, or read Erick Erickson, RedState.com on the Internet, you might just ask yourself who is paying for the message? And why is it so stridently anti-Trump?

Don’t fool yourself. They’re doing it for the money.

As the spearhead of the “Dump Trump” movement, the same GOP establishment big-dollar donors and PACS that are pushing House Speaker Paul Ryan as a dark-horse presidential candidate, despite the big-government omnibus-budget deals Ryan reached last year with President Obama, are funding Mark Levin, Erick Erickson, and Glenn Beck, to promote Sen. Ted Cruz.

And why wouldn’t he be angry? His country’s future is at stake and about 40% of the Republican party are latching onto a self-engaged nutjob real estate mogul with zero principles.

Until you said “real estate mogul” I thought you were talking about...well....most politicians in the Republican Party.

Maybe you should read the article; it explains a lot and you will see it is not just ‘another hit job’.

Speaking of uncontrollable bashing, your words, that is all I’ve heard Cruz doing lately.

I hear a good enema is a great way to remove a bunch of crap.

The panhandler Republican media is the nevertrump thing. I think Levin and Beck are a little different from the salem/national review/Kristol pure panhandler constructs. I think Levin was hired by Cruz. Beck is just too insane to get a read on. I don’t think it’s money with Beck, though.

This story does not surprise me much. The truth is that an entire political party and whole sections of the punditry and media on both the left and the right dedicate every day to destroying Trump. They are being paid by people who do not want their gig disrupted by the only outsider running. If Cruz had to deal with 10% of the flak that Trump catches every day I believe he would curl up into a little ball and never come out of his safe space.

I don't see the quid pro quo that is being alleged. Money goes where it will be useful, but this does not mean that Levin is "on the take."

Heck, if I had $400K to spend to save the Republic, I don't know of a better way than to buy and distribute Levin's books.

Why do Trump's supporters think that anyone who doesn't like Trump is either a GOPe guy or a crook or both? (Don't they notice anything? about Trump that reasonable patriots find either politically worrisome or humanly disgusting?)

The answer to the first question is that Trump incessantly accuses Cruz (and everyone else who opposes him) of being a GOPe guy or a crook.

The answer to the second question is the same answer. (The Alinskyites could explain that for FReepers.)

Yeah.

I like Levin too. Seems like he just another stooge.

Beck went off the rails years ago. He’s lost his damn mind.

That is a million dollar question. He is so divisive with his characteristic assassinations and his supporters think anyone who does not support him is a defective human being, horribly flowed. Amazing he doesn’t have self restraint to pretend to be presidential for more than 48 hours and doesn’t take time to actually study policy.

I do agree that most politicians in the GOP have zero principles.

That’s why they have hated on Cruz for four years.

The group that bought all of those Levin books targets incumbent GOP establishment Senators. It doesn’t support them.

Typical BS attack
