Radio host Levin reverses course: ‘I’m gonna vote for Donald Trump’
The Hill ^ | 9/7/2016 | Joe Concha

Posted on 09/07/2016 4:38:39 AM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

After once declaring he could never support Donald Trump as the Republican nominee, Mark Levin changed his mind with a big announcement on his radio program Tuesday.

“I’m gonna vote for Donald Trump. I’m gonna wind up voting for Donald Trump on Election Day," the talk radio host said after reiterating his perspective that Texas Sen. Ted Cruz was a far better choice for conservatives.

"I take no responsibility for the dumb things he says or the dumb things his surrogates say," he added of the GOP nominee and his campaign.

Levin's endorsement comes five months after unequivocally stating, "I am not voting for Donald Trump. Period.”

The 58-year-old syndicated radio host also noted that Trump has an uphill climb to win the White House, despite some recent national polls showing him tied or in the lead.

“Trump, despite the CNN poll (showing him 2 points up on Clinton Tuesday), has a lot of work to do to make up ground in these battleground states,” he said.

“But Hillary is so awful, I just don't know. I'm not in the prediction business."

Levin worked in the Reagan administration as a chief of staff for Attorney General Edwin Meese. He began his radio program in 2002.

The way he has insulted them over the past year why would they come back?

Listened to a few minutes at his start and he continued to insult Trump supporters as pom pom GOPers. Since when has the GOP supported Trump?

He doesn’t like us and the feelings are mutual.

Pray America wakes

I think this is to avoid being blamed if Trump loses in a close election. The damage he’s done to the Conservative voting block has already been done and he knows it. Hannity said he will blame these radio guys if Hillary wins. I think he wants to avoid that scenario. I read that he’s still bashing Trump, so his endorsement means nothing. Sounds like a CYA.

Trump is hardly perfect - but DOJ, FBI, etc are in the hands of the corrupt right now. they must be cleaned out and rehabilitated to make sure we have protection and justice at home. the courts are on the brink of being stacked against the Constitution and future appointments must turn this the other way. Trump is the only possible avenue to these ends.

Milo reported yesterday, I think, about Beck’s collapsing empire. How he ever built one is beyond me!

Levin is still upset because most of us have rejected the globalist model of conservatism he, Limbaugh, and most on talk radio have been peddling for decades.The GOP electorate has clearly rejected it this election year, and that repudiation upsets Levin to the core. Too bad pal.

Indeed Mark had his “Come to Jesus” conversion. He has taken the leap of faith. Now he will grow in understanding what Trump is about. His enemies do not understand because they do not believe.
Trump may fail me. I am certain he will. But he is an evangelist. He has led me back to knowing that the Lord is in control of human events, and especially of this nation established under God.
The prayer shawl sealed Trump’s priesthood. Levin has come to acknowledge there is no other choice for a moral man than to support Trump.
Trump is pure in his unwavering commitment to this nation. Let him be judged in every other aspect of his life. It does not matter. Without the land we stand on and the Constitution that birthed us we have nothing. We are endangered by forces that desire our end. Trump stands in the breach and we stand with him.

Beck’s troubles are “self-inflicted”. I find it remarkable how Trump’s candidacy has ripped the masks off so many people.

Don’t forget about that fat, red-faced fraud... Erick Erickson.

I managed to do it for just a few minutes, and now you remind me of him. Curses.

Don’t care. Beck isn’t important at all.

I used to listen to him on my hour-long commute home all the time. Haven’t listened to him in months. I am so sick of the “Trump is not conservative” BS. We haven’t had a conservative GOP nominee since Reagan. I fail to see the issue, other than this time I actually support Trump rather than holding my nose and voting for him.

When someone loses your trust its very hard to look at that person the same way.
And “sorry” don’t exactly cut it.
You either have to show you are really sorry or bye bye.
Maybe a good start would be to give a half a mill to the Trump campaign?
