Mark Levin: Why’s Trump Cozying Up to Sanders But Still Trashing Cruz?
Mediaite ^ | May 28, 2016 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 05/28/2016 1:57:38 PM PDT by conservative98

Mark Levin still has serious problems with Donald Trump, and today he pointed to something odd Trump’s been doing recently that could be a turn-off for conservatives.

Trump has been throwing compliments Bernie Sanders‘ way recently, saying he has some good ideas and the Democrats are being unfair to him and he should consider going third party, while at a rally yesterday Trump went back to trashing “Lyin’ Ted” Cruz.

And that really pissed off Levin, who wondered, “Does he talk about Bernie Sanders this way? He treats Bernie Sanders with an odd respect.”

He mocked the way Trump fans pivoted from praising him for agreeing to a debate with Sanders to praising him for deciding against it.

Trump must be about 30 moves ahead of Levin. He’s making nice with Sanders to get the voters who will be disgusted by him getting politically screwed by Clinton.

Sleazy Cruz is still running around trying to tie up delegates to either force a second ballot, or try to exert dominance over Trump on the GOP platform, or so I’ve heard. latest example: Washington state

If Trump had said my dad killed Kennedy I would be a little reluctant as well. I doubt continuing to attack Cruz will result in anything positive happening.

Trump wants to put America First

What it means is stop getting screwed by China for $505 Billion every year, and by Mexico by $58 Billion every year. Only people benefiting from this kerfuffle are the ultra rich donors who own every career politician, including Cruz who received millions of $$$ from just a few ultra rich donors. While the vast middle class is getting schlonged.

There would be no attack on Rafael Cruz born in Canada if he acted for republican unity and endorsed the presumptive nominee as he had pledged with all other candidates. Trump is exactly right about “Lying Ted”.

Free Traitors™ like Levin threw away their patriot card a long time ago. Trump is the anti-Christ to gloBULList talk show hosts.

Ted is only hurting himself. Trump does not need to hurt himself. Time to turn away from those already vanquished and show you are the bigger person after all. That will win more support from those who previously supported Ted, and Trump will need them.

Trump has already done that and continues to do so.

Trump only attacks others when they attack him first. Ted continues to attack.

Trd would do well to go back to his day job

What is a Cruz? Never heard of it. Some sort of laundry detergent?

That’s my point, he no longer needs to respond to Ted’s attacks. By not responding it makes Ted look petty and foolish. By responding it does nothing for Trump at this point in time. He is better off just ignoring Ted, ans his former followers will eventually do the same.

He can’t tie up the first ballot, his attempts were always on keeping Trump from getting the number he needed to win on the first ballot.

Laz

Mark is mighty fast with the anti Semite card

That and the Neoconfederates smear

My guess is he views nationalism as a potential pluralist peril historically for Jews in host countries

I’m not excusing him I don’t like him anymore even but he has a point if it’s coupled with fascism

Except he never said that.

Details. Details.

“You only ever hear the term Neo confederate from folks like Levin or from the left”

He thinks we don’t notice, and that moreover we should embrace the likes of Nimrata Nikki Haley Randhawa and the campaign to Culturally Cleanse the South of its history. The rest of American history comes next.

I wonder how the good people of South Carolina feel about welcoming her into their fold about now.

“What it means is stop getting screwed by China for $505 Billion every year, and by Mexico by $58 Billion every year.”

China is taking advantage of us in currency manipulation, flooding the market with below costs good, stealing our patents, etc. Mexico is invading us.

“Only people benefiting from this kerfuffle are the ultra rich donors”

The multinational corporations are benefitting, as are corrupt foreign governments. And domestic U.S. companies who want to import cheap foreign labor to replace American workers.

“who own every career politician, including Cruz who received millions of $$$ from just a few ultra rich donors.”

I’m glad that Trump is refusing to take money from these big money corruptocrats like Adelson and the others. I think self-funding by Trump is a large part of his appeal and is definitely the way to go.

Of course, to continue to do that after Trump means we need to start looking for the next billionaire who is willing to self fund.
