The Right Scoop
I think he wants Obama to be re-elected too. He backed him, he said he voted for him, he gave alot of money to him, he was pro choice, and he ha sgone so far right that I don't believe a word he's saying. Maybe he was offered the V.P. JOB! LOL
He knows Obama is a CITIZEN as well and there is probably not one investigator on the island of Hawaii.
There will be a much better GOP ticket than any Trump VP he would buy! Just finding the right mix, i.e. Palin/Bachmann; Bachmann/West; Palin/West and how about a Bachmann/Bolten or Palin/Bolten?
Levin has lost any credibility when he continued to support- nay worship- GW Bush-the least conservative, and the worst Republican president in American history. Levin is wrong about Trump as he was wrong about Bush. As long as Trump focuses on fixing the economy, and our trade imbalances he will win. Levin loves GW Bush- can you believe that.
Oh wow...I just found this comment you made to me.
Sorry for not finding it sooner.
And yeah, losing Lee Atwater was a Huge Blow to all of us on the right.
Truth and fire, yes absolutely...and an overall cool nature about him.
The likes of which I've not seen since.
I see similarities to Atwater, here and there, in others in politics....but no one with the whole package all rolled into one.
It would be like having Brietbart, Beck and Tony Snow, with a tad of the Blues Brothers...all in one person.
And even that doesn't really do justice to him.
I hear ya. But the thing I am very concerned about is this. Trump appears to be the only one who is willing to say anything controversial about Obama. The only one who is not afraid that the media is about to tar and feather them.
If he can open up the can of worms that Obama does not want opened that is fine with me.
I do not want to see Trump run as an independent - IMO his doing so would only take votes away from the GOP candidate. (as yet to be determined) - So that would be a very bad thing. But we have to also encourage the GOP to follow what Trump is doing and push them to take the lead instead of playing catch up as well.
Perhaps if they see that Trump is making headway that they will understand these issues are very important to more people than they realized. It is sad that we have to take a faux conservative like Trump and rally behind him in any way - but perhaps the psychology of making the GOP jealous will wake them up.
It's a common liberal strategy to run democrats on the Republican ticket in order to undermine Republican unity and political power. Some call such politicians RINOs (Republican In Name Only). I just call them for what they are - democrats.
Yeah, Trump is a liberal. Just like Huckabee, Romney, Crist? Graham? Trump might be hitting all the talking points for the conservative wing of the republican party...the birther issue, trade imbalances, thinking about the US first, not using the US military as global hessians, etc... Silly trump. What all of you on the left side of the republican party that are supporting the tan booth republican club, the spit and polish light on true conservative ideas that somehow magically don't qualify as liberals in your book should ask yourselves is, why aren't our candidates hitting the same talking points? Where is the balls? This gang of whores is going to save the republic? please...
I understand the fear of the Perot effect, splitting the party. I'd be worried a lot more about that if their was a true conservative republican party that I identified with. Since what is left of it is so weak I'm willing to gamble and vote for an outsider non belt way aparchnik, because voting for one of those is only marginally better than voting for one of the psychos with a D behind his or her name. That will only slow down American's downwards slide into 3rd world-dome and destruction, not stop it. Time to think and vote for someone outside the beltway box.
Well said, but that's really the whole point Levin is making. In fact, that is the point Perot was making 20 years ago.
The only hope to save America is to wake up the masses and the only way to do that is to fight back at the grass roots level.
It took the leftists decades to indoctrinate so many US citizens and take over the unions, media, education system, and both political parties. Reversing the tide will take courage and dedication, but it is feasible.
Conservatives need more community organizing, a stronger welcome message to minorities, to take back elementary through university education (no more allowing liberals to casually push conservative educators out of the system), and to take back the media, unions, and political parties.
Leftist hippies have been motivated enough to act since the 1960s. Conservatives haven't been motivated to do a dam thing since that time. Just thank BO's arrogance for waking us up! Your going to lose your freedom and high quality of life - if that's not motivation enough for conservatives, nothing is.
It took the leftists decades to build the infrastructure to be able to create this opportunity to take over our political system. It will take decades for conservaties to reverse the damage they have done.
We outnumber them 2 to 1. I'll take those odds. Conservatives are just now beginning to fight back. Up until now, the libs have gotten in free ride. The easy ground has been taken by them. That's not going to happen anymore!
I hope you don't feel its hopless. Its serious, but its not hopeless. The liberal bastards just talk amongst themselves and this fact creates a self inforcing feedback loop. They don't know yet what conservatives are made of! Like the Japanese, they underestimate us. They think we will be easily conquered.
Unfortunately for them, they are now going to find out how wrong they are - THE HARD WAY!
Trump has never been a Conservative. I wonder whether he's doing this in conjunction with the Dems/Soros in order to split off just enough conservative votes to give Obama a second term. I mean, the money's there for Obama and the was it's gathered (unverified credit card donation, donations from out of the country, fronts etc etc) that pushing some to Trump wouldn't be that difficult.
By the by, if I were Levin I wouldn't say the Trump's a good business man. He's had to declare corporate bankrupcy twice (on subsidiaries, that's how he lost Trump Casino) and has left a trail of broke partners and investors that have lost hundreds of millions while Trump always seems to make out well.
Donald Trump is nothing but a blow hard. We wouldn't be hearing from him at all if he didn't thing the most popular thing going today is to speak out against our huge national debt. Back when the tea party folks were trying to get conservatives elected to fight the loony left Trump was nowhere to be found. He is also a Johnny come lately and we can't put any trust in him. Trump has said that Carter was the worst president in history, then it was George Bush and now it is Oblunder. This guy is not worth our support and effort. We need to save our support for a legitimate conservative.
We all know that Donald Trump is far from perfect but so is Levin. Trump might not be conservative and he is not so liberal either. He is a moderate and it is hard to say which way he leans. Many support Charlie Cirst. He was a popular governor. He did well for Florida. Chirst is a Moderate right leaning person and he will get another shot I am sure. He might even try for Bill Nelson's seat when it comes up again. Trump will run and he will say all the right things. He will really attack Obama but does he really mean it? Donald is a great businessman and he is good at fixing budgets but as for running a nation, well, Obama is a good example of an inexperienced presidents.
Trump has found out that Obama and soros cant be trusted so he has woke up and seem what has to be done to get them out of america.. can u say the same Levin... yes 57% of the ppl thought Obama was a little tin god now that are finding ut hes a monster working for a monster soros. and its has to be stopped and just maybe trump can do some of it.. can you say the same???
Trump is a PLANT by the dems to go after Obama to HELP FIRE UP the Democrat base , And I would say its working ,the dem supporters sure have woken up and donating big time to their respective candidates.
President Obama base have been asleep and need some waking up, So putting trump out here to be the bad guy on behalf of the republicans ... to go after the prez is BRILLIANT.
"dumber than a bag of rocks or a liberal. Oh, sorry, that's redundant" - I'm laughing my a__ off!
Hardly, their numbers are dropping like a stone and all I see is everyone including Obama's illegal aunt, his sister, Bidens daughter come out to stop the issues. Obama is not sleeping well.
Trump 2012! Republicans need to learn to listen to the people and stop dividing each other.
There are those of us that are just as cynical and encourage him to criticise Obama, and yet have absolutely NO intention of voting for or financially supporting Trump's political ambitions. Whatever Trump's game is . . .it's not a winning political strategy . . . it's entertainment . . . Pass the popcorn.

Levin supported Romney when there was no one left except McCain, Huckleberry, and Romney. He initially supported Fred Thompson.
Yeah, when he said something about running as an indy if he didn't win the primary made me suspicious of him... Why would anyone do that if they wanted Obeyme out of office? AND why would anyone be stupid enough to announce their plans (based on the polls, fer pete's sake) unless they expected "plants" to artificially inflate his popularity so he'd have something to point to as an excuse? Something's really stinky here...
Trump's donations are troubling, as well as his past support of single-payer systems. Hopefully, he'll do some damage to the left and a real candidate will emerge on the right.
Let Trump destroy Obama .. does not mean we have to elect him. he has Obama on the ropes right now. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Let's vet out the candidates and remember Reagan's 11th Commandment. Let's not shoot ourselves in the foot. Trump has not said he would run officially and let's hear him out. He's the only one that is standing up to Obama.
Check Trump's political donation list. Interesting he donated far more to Democrats and liberal independents than to Republicans. Do not believe me then take a look:

I thought of something today. I already know that the GOP Elites are behind this Trump nonsense to stop Sarah Palin. They used to back Mitt Romney but have realized this was a losing horse because of Romneycare. However, Trump himself wrote that he supports socialized medicine. Do the GOP Elites WANT socialized medicine? Twice they have backed candidates who support socialized medicie.
Real eye opener. I was just getting my hair today and all the young girls loathe Obama and said if the election were today, they would vote for Trump. Uh oh.....
Levin is too full of himself. So...would Levin and the rest of the conservatives like to see Sarah Palin run and lose to Obama. At this point in time do you believe Romney can defeat Obama. Neither of the above will defeat Obama. I met and talked with Palin at a GOP fundraiser in October 2008. She is much more polished now than when she was McCain's running mate but she cannot defeat Obama.
If you want to see Obama for four more years campaign for Palin, Romney or any of the others who are lining up to win the GOP nomination.
I do not know all there is to know concerning Trump but I would take my chances with a Trump/West ticket rather than turn the country over to Obama, Reid and Pelosi for four more years.
Perhaps Levin can tell all of you who you should support and you can walk lockstep with him. I like Levin, I have his books and listen to him most evenings. At times he is too much for me. I would vote for him if he ran for president but he would lose.
Dante, In my view- I feel we all get anxious and frustrated because so far a candidate hasn't stepped up to say they are running ( or even thinking of running) that we absolutely have confidence in, that will have a real shot at winning back the White House!

Wake the F&*( up!!!! Trump is a plant to ensure Obama wins the election. The left knows the American voters mindset and they know we have American Idol stars in our eyes when it comes to selecting leaders. So they are putting him out there to lull the Right to his side then Obama will crucify him, dig out garbage on Trump that will destroy his chances of winning and Trump will tuck his tail like John McCain did (he too was a plant to ensure Obama's win). BEWARE. RON PAYL is THE ONLY man we can trust to do the right thing by America. He will get us out of the UN which is the most important move if we want to save this country. That will put an end to our commitment to Agenda 21. He will get rid of the Dept. of Ed so we can take back the education of our children instead of the indoctrination that is going on right now...Again part of Agenda 21. If we don't get OUT OF THE UN it won't matter who is in the White House our country will go down in flames.
You're exactly right Karen, Trump without a doubt is and always been more of a liberal. Trumps comments throughout the years have been for the most part against the republican party and to be honest he had reason at the time to call the republicans out, hey if they're not doing their job then regardless if you're a republican it comes down to honesty and integrity and what people want is Not lies and deception just to get votes, it doesn't do anyone any good/only hurts the country. So many people are putting their names in the hat for the republican party that they will all start bickering about each other which has been happening which I'm suprised b/c they always stick together. I'm not sure about you, but I've noticed a significant breakdown in the republican party as far as them standing together. I personally don't see any chance of the republicans winning in 2012 with what is going on right now. They need to get together and pick one person and run with that person otherwise this back and forth crap is just going to sway voters away from them all.
Maybe I don't get it or I'm missing something, but I would live to see Ron Paul be our president. His ideas in general are great and I think the man is true to his word unlike what we have been experiencing, I think the guy really wants to do right by his country.
If you like Ron Paul, support Gary Johnson.
Paul will be 77 years old. He is a Congressman.
Look at the history of Presidential elections.
We elect governors in their 50s.
Levin is right...he is always right. Support a non-GOP, Tea-partier. Not a RINO or Demorat. Our Country is at stake.
I think Trump is 'saving' the thing about Obama's sealed records....for when he is attacked about his own records.
It seems like Trump to do that.
He mentioned to Hannity, something about 'needing more than one page' for the amount of disclosure he would have to make.
So if all these conservative pundits are going to 'bring up' Obama's sealed records...they better get cracking on it.
Otherwise Trump will trump them on that too.
And they will look even more foolish than they already do...for remaining silent on it for so long.
Mark, you present the country with the cogent case of RINO factoids of Donald Trump and it convinces me that we are being played another game of Three Card Monte by the globalists. Especially, if Trump has contributed to Fabian Socialists like Hillary Clinton and leftwing rads as Weiner & inter alia.
At first, I was hopeful that Donald Trump would stand up against these monsters, however you have just proven this is all a show in both the Obama and RINO globalist strategy to split and conquer the conservative Tea Party and patriotic movements. I pray that Trump is not a redux of Ross Perot.
"I pray that Trump is not a redux of Ross Perot."
Oh...Trump is way worse than Ross Perot.
Trump has charisma...Perot did not.
If Perot had had Trump's level of charisma and swagger, he probably would've defeated Clinton and Bush Sr..
However, Trump told Hannity that he has no interest in helping Obama get a 2nd term by doing a third party run...
So lets hope he doesn't reverse himself on that like he has on so many other things.
I think it will depend on who gets the Nomination.
If someone gets it that Trump knows has no chance of beating Obama, he may use that as an excuse to do an indy run.
Trump strikes me as an opportunist and a McCain/Schwarzenegger styled republican. I would rather have a more conservative candidate, but if somehow Trump does end up on the Republican ticket, its only fair to point out the things I do feel he would generally bring to the table.
1) honest desire to stop the collectivists from completely taking over this country (I believe him when he says he is running because he thinks the US is in trouble and that no strong candidates have emerged who he beleives can turn the tide). I suppose some would disagree on this point. If Trumps lying on this point, I am not picking up that vibe when I watch him in interviews. Maybe he has a great poker face and he is conning me on that point.
2) If he's elected, that buys time for conservatives to better organize at the grass roots level to combat the leftist indoctrination through media and education which has been quietly underway for the past 3 to 5 decades. Plus, I think his strengths can help turn the tides against the hatred of the successful (note that I am not saying hatred of corrupt wealthy elites who "rig" the system in their favor - liberals are trying to imply that all wealthy individuals rig the system when in reality most rational people know only a small segments of the wealthy individuals in this country rig the system and they are only able to do so with help from the government elites who assist them so collectivism would only make this problem more pronounced)
3) He's smart and a savy negotiator - this is Trumps skill set that I think beats any other candidate out there.
4) He is not afraid to call a spade a spade when necessary to do so and he is not afraid to go to battle with any person or nation if necessary. I think this strength is a true and needed asset that a conservative candidate must bring to the table.
See Trump, I don't hate you. I just want a true conservative with your strengths and more to hold the office of President.
People like Trumps' fighting spirit...and are enjoying seeing him taking direct hits at Obama.
I am enjoying watching it, too.
Compared to the other guys, like Huckabee, Romney, Pawlenty, et al...Trump comes across like a lion.
But he is more of a progressive than most people realize.
He has a lot in his past for the left to make a big deal about.
I repeat....He has a lot in his past.
Just wait till they go into his chain of models and trophy wives...he will be painted as a mysogynist.
We don't know how many women are out there waiting for their 15 minutes of Fame, who will come out saying "Donald Trump was mean to me!"
And...if a strong wind ever lifts that comb-over and causes it to flap up and down...that will become the biggest viral video ever!
Can't you just hear it?....."Trump's Hair Waves To The Crowd".
:D
Fiscal con is dependent on social con only when entitlements are involved. When it's simply ideological, like being OK with gay people, it's not.

You're right, Bush didn't lie.
Well...l would put it this way, if Bush 'lied' then so did Hillary, Kerry, Reid, Edwards, and all the other Democrat power players at the time who were saying in unison that "Sadam Hussein has WMDs and what are you going to do about that, Mr. President!"
I guess this Jjfoh person missed Hillary's press conference on the Capital steps in 2002, after we had just beaten back the Taliban in Afghanistan...
Where she said..."A victory in Afghanistan is good, but what about Sadam Hussein's WMD's? That is the real threat. What is the President going to do about that?"
The Left has been deploying that old tactic of "A Lie repeated long enough, will eclipse the Truth"....because, unfortunately it works on the weak minded.
A list if democrats who supported Operation Iraqi Freedom: http://www.freedomagenda.com/iraq/wmd_quotes.html
Thanks for the list.
:)
I remember that it was long.
In 2002-03 the Dems were the ones leading the charge on going after Saddam Hussein...they basically pushed Bush into it.
Then, they reversed themselves, and the LiberalMediaMachine tried to scrub their previous positions from history.
