Sound the Trumpet (Levin: Trump is no conservative)

there are a few things I don’t like about him, his impatience with callers, his name calling

I don't normally listen to him for those very reasons.

I think what he's doing is sounding the alarm. I love Trump bringing Bambi to his knees, but what's being pointed out is important at this stage of the game, particularly since he is suddenly so popular amongst the GOP voters.

Trump supports national health care, gave to the most liberal causes and politicians (while supporting no conservatives or TEA party initiatives), speaks highly of Nancy Pelosi (wishing she had impeached Bush), gave to Harry Reid in 2010, was pro-abort all his life until he suddenly wants the GOP nomination, and simply is not a conservative at all.

There's a lot more, but the prime problem here is Trump being to the left of most of the RINO's we deplore and it's important that people understand that before the Trump train buys the nomination.

I'll support Trumps lambasting of Bambi, but be careful, the man isn't what he's pretending to be.

For now, all that's important is that he is taking the fight to Obama, and that's a good thing.

As for Sarah, she needs all the help she can get. If the media did its job, we wouldn’t need help to expose this fraud. But the media covers for Obama, and we know how much the media ridicules Sarah, and for that reason people like Trump gives invaluable help in attacking Obama, which should be welcomed from conservatives.

And I wouldn’t overstate Trump's appeal with GOP voters. He has high name recognition and is sucking up all the air, so that's bound to be reflected in polls. Just let the process take its course.

I like how he's knocking down Bambi, it's something to cheer about.

With Trump's track record, and him wanting to run for the nomination, I think it's important to know what he believes.

He doesn't believe what conservatives believe in most cases, and his sudden conversion to pro-life and other conservative causes only show me he's a great marketer, but really at heart is Mitt Romney as a better salesman.

My 2 cents.

I still love how Trump is taking it to Bambi, I hope it wakes the rest of the GOP up. I just don't want him anywhere near the nomination.

“If I do run for president, I want you to know I’m pro-life,” he [Trump] said. “I’m against gun control, and I will fight to end Obamacare and replace it with something that makes sense for people in business, something that will not bankrupt the country.” link

But he is a proponent of gay rights. Yikes!

You are probably right about him, but for now, I will let him talk - as long as he goes after Obama.

[Lakeshark]

Agreed, I want him to talk down Bambi, I love what he's doing in that regard.

But if he runs, just remember, he's not a conservative, he's really to the left of most RINO's. His gun rights and abortion stance are brand new btw.

I just hope the rest of the GOP understands that Trump is tapping into a huge wave of resentment, and that they stop pussyfooting around. I think what Rush said is he's demonstrating the map to take down Bambi, and for that I'm grateful.
