ON FIRE! Mark Levin RIPS hysterical Left, pathetic Repubs who oppose Trump’s immigration ban

http://therightscoop.com/on-fire-mark-levin-rips-hysterical-left-pathetic-repubs-who-oppose-trumps-immigration-ban/

In his opening segment, Mark Levin ripped into the likes of those on both the right and the hysterical left who oppose Trump’s immigration executive order than halts immigration from seven terrorist countries, saying he’s never seen anything more disgusting.

Levin calls Trump’s action ‘modest’ and explains why calling it un-american is pathetically stupid and really signifies why those who are saying it hate America.

He even calls out quite a few Republican Congressmen and Senators by name who are now opposing it, arguing that by doing so they hate this country:

Target rich environment and TGO fired all his guns on this one.

Did he leave the party yet? No? Then he isn't worth listening to. He's just riding the wave he used to 'oppose' until it hit his wallet.

I at least had the integrity to stand by my opposition to the end. That fraud blows with the wind every 2 years depending on the election. I defy anyone to look back and look at how many final week conversions to the nominee he had after spending 1.9 to 3.9 years beating the conservative drum and milking his audience like any propagandist.

Mark was very good tonight.  What I like about Mark is he is more than willing to support President the Donald when he believes he is correct and to be critical of him when he believes he is incorrect, unlike Rush who pretty much thinks everything President the Donald does is terrific.  I find that very refreshing.  It gets tiresome to see so much adoration coming from one side and so much silly dislike from the other.  So far he hasn't done one single thing that conservatives should be upset about.  People just seem to like holding on to their bitterness.  I guess it makes them feel surperior. :shrug:

Which is exactly why Levin on two separate occasions told his audience he was 'an inch' from leaving the GOP. Then hid under his microphone and stayed.

Levin?  Levin has been true to his word and principles during this whole thing.  Maybe you're thinking of someone else.

And, apparently his wallet is just fine.

He quite wisely decided that you can either be at the table or be on the menu.  If you think he's been hidding under his microphone then you need to get your ears cleaned out because he has done nothing of the sort. **nononono*

Norm has a point .  Levin should have been Cheering Trump the last two weeks, so there would be political pressure from conservatives to get Trump's nominees through .

He called Trump everything but a white man for MONTHS, trashed almost everything he said and then SUDDENLY hopped on board once Trump was WH bound. Which is his documented pattern. He beats his chest about 'conservatism' then ALWAYS goes with the nominee, no matter HOW long he spent on his show saying what a bad guy/liberal/idiot/whatever that person was. And like he'd been the biggest fan all along. Because WIN NO MATTER WHAT is what drives him. Not principle.

If you doubt it, you need to look up and learn the history involved.

I was not happy with the way Trump treated Cruz.  Now Cruz is Donalds biggest supporter in the Senate.  Compare with Corkhead or Sasse or Schumer or Graham or McCain.....

I have paid pretty close attention to Levin's positions since the Romney era. My statements are based on what I have seen/heard him do. And if you take the time to do searches on it, you too will see that he says different things at different times. there is zero doubt he slammed Trump for months, only to reverse position, just as he slammed Romney for months only to reverse position, just as he slammed Mitch for months, only to reverse position.

I'm sorry if you disagree. But the facts are what they are. Why he reverses does not matter. Just the fact I'd never trust him in light of his actions. Because they do not match his words when it matters most.

Statement on the Appointment of Dana Boente as Acting Attorney General

The acting Attorney General, Sally Yates, has betrayed the Department of Justice by refusing to enforce a legal order designed to protect the citizens of the United States. This order was approved as to form and legality by the Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel.

Ms. Yates is an Obama Administration appointee who is weak on borders and very weak on illegal immigration.

It is time to get serious about protecting our country. Calling for tougher vetting for individuals travelling from seven dangerous places is not extreme. It is reasonable and necessary to protect our country.

Tonight, President Trump relieved Ms. Yates of her duties and subsequently named Dana Boente, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, to serve as Acting Attorney General until Senator Jeff Sessions is finally confirmed by the Senate, where he is being wrongly held up by Democrat senators for strictly political reasons.

"I am honored to serve President Trump in this role until Senator Sessions is confirmed. I will defend and enforce the laws of our country to ensure that our people and our nation are protected," said Dana Boente, Acting Attorney General.

He didn't reverse his position.  He said he would vote for Trump because the idea of HRC winning was not tolerable.  He still knocks Trump when he thinks Trump is doing something boneheaded and/or unconstitutional.  Not sure how that's a reversal.

From The Hill:
Radio host Levin reverses: ‘I’m gonna vote for Donald Trump’


After once declaring he could never support Donald Trump as the Republican presidential 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.”

Thats a reversal by any definition. "Period" is a word with a definitive meaning.

Let's back up a minute for a second  ... Levin got on board in order to help ensure that Hillary was defeated.  The defeat of Hillary Clinton meant one thing and for many, one thing only; the chance to appoint a conservative Supreme Court Justice.  That Supreme Court Justice Trump promised would be taken from a list of conservative justices.  Tonight will tell all; either Trump is going to keep is word or he will dump on all that voted for him.
