What these idiots do not realize, and that includes Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, Governor Martinez, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Glenn Beck, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, many other radio show hosts, and practically every elected Republican official in this county, is that their party has left them and gone to Trump.
They are all total failures. Everyone whom they have advised us to vote for over the years has been a total failure. None of them, not ****ing one of them has achieved anything at all in terms of taking America back from leftists, saving the country, saving our culture, NOTHING.
And in their absolute total failure, that arrogantly sit there thinking we have to come back to them, because there is nowhere else to go.
BS! We left.
We no longer have time for your endless recipes for failure.
Mark levin, Ted Cruz is a FAILURE! He is not the next Ronald Reagan, what he is is the next failure in a long line of failures, and you should know this better than anyone else, because everyone you have ever recommended that we vote for HAS BEEN A FAILURE.
And what did Ted Cruz do when he went up against Trump? He FAILED.
And what would have Ted Cruz done had he gone up against Hillary? He would have FAILED, just like he FAILED when he voted for the Corker Bill.
Preach it , brother FReeper!
Mark is still hoping for Cruz to come back like Reagan did from ‘76 to ‘80, what else is there he says.
Agreed...
Cruz:
“At the outset of this campaign, I committed I gave my word that I will support the Republican nominee, and I honor my word”
So his word is his Bond...Oh wait :(

Levin and Rush both have repeatedly been asked to run for office, and both repeatedly declined. I remember Levin once talking about all the things he has said on air prohibit him.
Then, along comes Trump who makes them both look like a couple of nuns, and he steps forth, takes the massive and malicious slings and arrows. With all his baggage Trump stepped forth while Levin and Rush are sitting behind their microphones playing keyboard warriors. All we ever wanted was a fighter. That's all we ever wanted. Now that we have one, the pure conservatives can't stop attacking him because he highlights how ineffective and cowardly they have been.
Spot on!!
What happened to Levin - and a lot of conservatives - was they hitched their wagon to a con man. Cruz's technique was similar to that of a predator: the entire trajectory of his very short political career was spent grooming his target audience, acting and doing things that were engineered the way he wanted himself to be perceived.
Trump did the nation a favor by exposing Cruz's scheme to hoodwink the electorate.
Beautiful. I couldn’t have said it better. We want a fighter!!!
Donald doesn’t want to come on anymore... I suppose. Oh wait. We don’t ask anymore. - Mark
Why suppose or complain that Trump doesn’t come on when you do not ask?
Name calling like "purveyors of hate" were directed at Goldwater and his supporters.
And recalled Nelson Rockefeller's public relations head, Stuart Spencer, "We had to destroy Barry Goldwater as a member of the human race."
I forgot what we called them.. probably comsymps or pinkos.
I still recall Nelson Rockefeller at the convention podium trying to give his speech supporting his additions to the platform.. the Goldwater delegates were shouting at him.. and there was the photo that I cannot find of Rockefeller at the podium giving the Goldwater delegates the finger -- with that look that I will never forget.
There are ones that are technically unbound and can vote whoever they want on the first ballot; some have told sources they’ll vote Trump. That’s what got the count to 1237. I assume they could change their mind before the convention, but by then he’ll have around 1400 so it wouldn’t matter.
Great post, the quote you have from Levin regarding Romney in your signature is particularly telling. I used to hold Levin in very high esteem, but unfortunately he's turning out to be a fraud. Most of these guys like Levin and Rush rose to fame when Bill Clinton was in office, but they have sold us down the road ever since. Joe Scarborough is another one that made his name attacking Clinton but look at him now. I don't really trust any of the original "Clinton critics" anymore, and put Lindsey Graham up as Exhibit A, but these guys are getting exposed at this point as well.

I think Cruz was basically preparing step-by-step resume highlights that showed him often alone in standing for conservatism but that rendered no real change or progress. It was total calculation and generated from hardcore ambition. Levin seems particularly to be bait for these types.
Really?
Back then they still weren't sure who'd get the nomination until the convention. Goldwater may have had the delegates, but people weren't psychologically prepared for the fact that everything could be decided in the primaries, so they fought on into the convention.
Now we know that Trump will be the nominee, so anti-Trump forces are accepting that -- or if they fight on, they know they can't win. People have time to decompress, so people aren't as keyed up as they were back then (I guess -- I wasn't around then).
The other thing is that Rockefeller really represented the elite. I guess you could vaguely compare the Bushes today to him. But they aren't carrying on the fight any more. Some political writer or consultant who's running #neverTrump doesn't compare to Rockefeller in power and influence.
I think the exposure is excellent and very needed. These are very difficult waters for me because I truly respected Levin and used him to fill in a lot of gaps in my understanding of history and the Founding. Worse I turned a very very large amount of people onto him. I am still hoping I won't have to make a big email list nevermind. Maybe Levin will come to his senses. I rarely listen anymore and that helps. It is hard for me to hear him lying so much.
Nicely said.
You nailed it. Cruz was my favorite politician of all just a couple of years ago, but I started wondering about even him when he went to the border with Glenn Beck to give out teddy bears. Since then, it's been one stupid mistake after another, and he's not fooling anyone anymore except the completely blind, or crooked.
Trump is far from perfect, but he's the only one that seems truly committed to the issues that really matter right now like stopping immigration and slowing free trade, which is the tit that most of these politicians and radio personalities are sucking on.
Well said, this thread has some really good comments. And not one of us is enjoying this roast of Levin etc, but we are smart and mature enough to know that it's needed. The RNC and these radio hosts failed, clearly, to save the American dream, and so we're turning to someone like Trump who somewhat represents it, to restore it. But the establishment on both sides won't give up their standing easily, so don't let the pressure on them up.
