.@marklevinshow @CR Yr arguement ignores deep demo changes in numerous states. Can u imagine RR winning governor in Cali today. I can't.

@marklevinshow The man hasn't been sworn in for chrissake. Why don't you just leave it alone? He won against ALL odds. W/out your help.

Isidro Marino ‏@pandemoniumcirc 55m55 minutes ago
@marklevinshow desperately searching for a loss in a historic victory. This is why Levin is part of the neocon past, not the trump future.

@marklevinshow Important? This is just establishment conservatives not wanting trump to be associated with their darling.

FU Levin the purist. If he wants things his way he should run for office.

One way that 2016 is much like 1980 is that weakness by a couple leftist presidents toward Iran contributed in Republicans winning the election.

In some ways Trump’s win is even MORE impressive.

The Democrats have been packing the electorate with millions of third-world voters and indoctrinated young people since 1980. Millions of sane voters have gone to the great polling place in the sky.

Did Reagan suffer the systemic MSM assault? No.

Grow up, Levin. Your never-ending contempt is annoying and a waste of precious airtime — 770 AM, NY, 6-9 PM.

You’d think Levin would be sick of being so consistently wrong that he’d just finally shut up. But noooooo...

levins a maroon. Trump didn’t target the popular vote because that’s not how you get elected. Trump won the Electoral College by a landslide margin.

Love the responses

Sure Trump is no Reagan So what? I don’t think any of us thought he would be. The fact that he won is historic. No one else could have taken the pounding Trump did and still won.

Tell me who else in the GOP could have kept up the campaign schedule Trump did? Three stops a day....and rarely in the same state. He went to the people direct. That is why it was like Reagan Trump campaigned where the voters were.....not the bots

Trump might turn out to be better than Reagan.

Reagan won a much bigger win against a sitting president. He had opposition of course, but in 1980, there was no 24/7 news cycle or cable TV like we have now. The opposition to Trump included, but limited to: All the networks, all the cable stations, including much of FOX, almost every newspaper and magazine, the Bush machine (thank you Reagan for saddling us with that albatross, the Clinton machine, the DNC, George Soros and his spider web of “activist” groups throughout the nation, the neo-con artists (again a big hand for Reagan for saddling us with them as well), and last, but not least, all of Hollyweird.

So, anyone may quibble about Trump’s “lackluster popular vote performance” which now shows that in 49 states he won by a total of 2.1 MILLION votes, only California the state most flooded with illegals (another hand for Reagan for his amnesty and not securing the border) gave her 3.1 million more votes than Trump, bringing her popular vote total to 1.1 million more than Trump.

If Trump performs well, and it looks like he just might do so, he could win a very decisive popular vote AND even larger Electoral College victory in 2020.

My little take - California was liberal then but Not near like the hyper uber liberal it is today. Plus we've had another 25 years of MSM instilling communism down the gullible's mouth since.

Re 1980 and Trump would've run, I think we'd see the same results Reagan did.

I don't believe even Reagan could win Oregon, Mass and Cali now. Too far gone.

it would be like 1980 if not for the massive voter fraud and illegal alien poll turnout in 2016 by the DNC...

It took a landslide in 2016 to squeak by a victory.....

in 1980, an actual Republican Landslide = Landslide

in 2016, an actual Republican Landslide = a squeaker

hmm did he say this about W Bush, who barely won the electoral vote and didn’t win PA, Michigan and Wisconsin? Reagan didn’t win a GOP majority in the House and I don’t think they had a majority of governors or state legislatures, either

If he gets the economy going, brings back real jobs, and oversees real growth, he’ll be remembered like Reagan, as much as the libs might hate it

He has both houses of Congress at least nominally on his side.

All Trump needs to do is follow his agenda - the rest will take care of itself and his reelection will be huge....Levin and other “conservative” pundits are the ones that got some ‘splainin’ to do.....
