After the conclusion of the GOP presidential debate on Saturday, which was hosted by CBS News, I described Donald Trump's performance as unhinged, angry and liberal after he praised Planned Parenthood and accused President George W. Bush of lying about the Iraq war.
Last night on his radio show, Mark Levin didn't mince words when describing Trump's debate performance.
"The fact that Donald Trump attacked George W. Bush, not because of his liberal domestic policies, not because he expanded Medicare, not because he was weak on the First Amendment, not because of those things, expanded government, increased the debt, was for comprehensive immigration reform, but the fact that he attacked George Bush as a Commander-in-Chief... not because he disagreed with him but he attacked him as a liar who knew there were not weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and said he was responsible for 9/11 and he was responsible for those towers coming down," Levin said. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is why I posted on my Facebook page 'This guy sounds like CodePink!'"
"He sounds like a radical kook," Levin continued. "All the rest aside, I know too many gold star families who lost sons over there to hear this 9/11 truther crap which is pretty close to it. Pretty damn close to it."
You can listen to the segment here.
Not only did Trump sound like CodePink over the weekend, the radical progressive group retweeted him yesterday.

Radio host Rush Limbaugh also said Monday Trump sounded like a liberal Democrat during some of his answers at the CBS debate.
"Here we are in a Republican primary, and Donald Trump, out of the blue, starts blaming the Bush family for 9/11, for knowing that the intelligence was made up, that there never were any weapons of mass destruction, and they knew it, Trump said," Limbaugh said on his radio program. "Michael Moore doesn’t even say that."
"On the stage at a Republican debate, Donald Trump defended Planned Parenthood. Not the abortion stuff, he said, but the fact that they do great things for women’s health," Limbaugh continued. "Folks, there were a number of occasions where Donald Trump sounded like the Daily Kos blog, where Donald Trump sounded like the Democrat Underground, sounded like any average host on MSNBC."
Yep. Now possible 3rd party run... These Trumpaholics are the reason we as a nation in this mess. Delusionals. And NO rational argument suffices these drones. One Obama for another. Great...
It’s near time to stick a fork in the old USA.
Were you for the invasion before it happened or afterward, just curious?
Mark had Jeff Sessions on the show last night.
It must have burned Mark to hear Sessions praising Trump on the show.
Sessions trumps Mark.
Childish post.
Reading the quote, Levin said that Trump SAID Bush was responsible for the towers coming down. He didn’t say exactly that.
As a Trump supporter I did not like what Trump said at the debate. But Levin isn’t being honest in the above quote.
From the most recent debate:
[Moderator] STRASSEL To Trump:
"...you're the only candidate who has said he would not touch entitlements.
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget has estimated that your ideas would cost an additional $12 trillion to $15 trillion over the next 10 years and that we would have to have annual economic growth of anywhere from 7.7 percent to 9 percent annually to pay for them."
How long does it take to set the charges for a controlled demolition of a forty story structure in Manhattan? As you know but ignore, the man who leased the entire center said he told 'the fire department' to 'pull it' that afternoon.You creeps keep feeding America these fabricated disses and we just see you for more and more the enemy of Truth and The American People. A British journo gal even told the BBC the building collapsed, several minutes BEFORE the thing was dropped in a controlled demo.
Thank You! A voice of reason.
When obama took office the war had been won and we needed to win the peace. Instead of pushing for judicial and political reforms obama withdrew troops and when the most radical muslims were released from prison ISIS emerged.
“Childish post.”
Hey, he did a nice one here. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3397120/posts?page=70#70
I have it pinned on the refrigerator with a ‘Frozen’ magnet. ETL gets a sticky star for that one!
Trump didn’t say it but the Bushes are as corrupt as the Clintons, just coated more genteelly. I think Trump knows a lot about the Bushes. Ross Perot did as well, which is why he ran for an office he didn’t want, to save us from the Bushes. Though he gave us the Clintons, even worse. Thanks.
Bush is not responsible for 9/11. That is crazy. However, he is responsible for all those poor souls who died for nothing in the Iraq war. Which is just as heartbreaking and even more preventable. Clinton is not RESPONSIBLE for the towers coming down, just responsible for not preventing “any terror attack” bin Laden came up with. But Bush is responsible for all the losses in Iraq, himself.
So, those of us who support Cruz are only doing so because we:
1. Have been duped by his lying.
OR
2. Are willing participants in furthering Cruz’s lie.
The Trump supporters on FR have ruined what this site used to be. It’s no longer a haven for like-minded conservatives and liberty-loving patriots. Instead, it’s a trash heap for petty insults against anyone who doesn’t bow to Trump. I’ve said this before and I say it again, I am sick of Trump supporters...especially those of the FR variety.
Jeff Sessions would be a great SCOTUS member, but America needs his voice in the Senate too much to let him matriculate.
One more time for the Levin short-bus pop people:
The 69-year-old billionaire, who announced his decision after meeting with Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, insisted he got “absolutely nothing” for pledging his loyalty “other than the assurance that I’ll be treated fairly.”
Liberal politicians become angry when you tell them the truth; conservative businessmen, when you lie to them.
Actually, no. It illustrates the obvious lunatic demeanor of this unhinged fool you want to place in the White House. The guy has neither the emotional or intellectual maturity to be president. On that basis alone, wise voters should reject him.
Spoiled brat cry baby Trump
“If the relation worked for Hillary and then he spoke out for Hillary who would care you say?”
If you think Levin would support Hillary, you are out of your mind.
“I’m just saying it would have been better to have that out in public rather than in the shadows.”
It’s not in the shadows. There’s no denial by Levin, it’s not a secret, he even said it on his show a few months back.
Now that is funny, a Trumpster thinks Levin pointing out the facts about The Donald is irrational.
1. Donations to big time libs, check
2. Friends with the Clinton's, check
3. Supported amensty in the recent past, check
4. Admits to buying off (read corruption) politicans to get influence, check
5. Tear down anybody who dares question him, check
6. Supported TARP and other bailouts, check
“Here’s the thing....I used to Levin for what I perceived was objective opinion. Now, Levin has trashed that perception and become an undocumented member of the Cruz campaign.”
Considering Cruz is the most conservative candidate running, why would it surprise you if that’s who Levin likes? Sounds to me like you just don’t like that he’s rooting for someone who’s not your choice.
Wow!
A post with sanity!

Hear that, heights? And from an opened and proud die-hard Trump-supporting Putinista like Psalm 144!
It was a GREAT interview!
Mark tried to trip him up on Trump’s abrasive style, but Sessions wouldn’t bite and stuck to the big issues of immigration and trade.
Sessions also had some interesting comments about Rubio’s Gang of 8 membership.
Sessions refuted Rubio’s current claim that he Rubio wasn’t really for the Senate version (Rubio now claiming that he expected the bill to be amended in the House).
Sessions said he never heard that at the time, and that the Senate version passing “as is” in the House was a very near thing, stopped only by Cantor’s loss in the primary scaring the RINOs.
