Talk radio host Mark Levin, who has endorsed Republican presidential candidate Texas Senator Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), declared, “I am not voting for Donald Trump. Period” and “count me as never Trump” on Friday.
Levin said that a couple of years ago, the Senate Conservatives Fund contacted his publisher to buy old copies of his book, “Liberty & Tyranny” to promote membership, something he wasn’t involved in. Levin defended this as “perfectly legitimate,” and done by many groups and authors, and as far as he knew, wasn’t bulk buying, and didn’t impact any lists. He further stated that whatever money he got from this sale was donated to charity.
Levin then stated, “Roger Stone is a thug. He’s a sleazeball. … And he’s a hatchet man for Donald Trump. So he puts out this obscure article from this obscure website, that used that to claim that I’m bought and paid for by the establishment. … And in the article, they trash other people too, Beck, Erickson, I think there’s another fellow in there trashed, with these nutjob conspiracy theories, and just flat-out lies.”
Levin continued, “Now, there are sleazeballs, like him, sleazeballs like Coulter, and sleazeballs like some talk show hosts, and I’m biting my tongue, who are so contemptible and pathetic, they want to use the most outrageous attacks on one of their colleagues to try and promote themselves. It’s truly pathetic.”
He then added, “Now, I’ve backed Cruz, and I’m going to continue to back Cruz, but here’s what I’m going to do. As a result of what the Trump supporters have attempted here, particularly Roger Stone, I am not voting for Donald Trump. Period. … And if anybody has a problem with that, Donald Trump, you can talk to Roger Stone.

Ah! I take it you’re a Hillary!™ man!
I’ll say. Levin is usually an intelligent guy. Claiming to be never-trump is intentionally destructive. These past few weeks he has become anti-rational and incoherent. Definitely a fully engaged case of TDS.
Levin has lost a listener..... me
Cruz PACs are funding Levin, so this is no surprise.
Levin doesn’t handle criticism well.

[ I don’t understand why the Senate Conservatives Fund is mentioned at all.
Was Roger saying that the SCF paid off Mark, somehow? ]
In 2014 the LIBS used the VERY SAME attack on Levin that Trump’s “unofficial spokesman” and good buddy Roger Stone just used today to try to smear Mark Levin.
It was a needless “recycled liberal” attack on Levin that was easily debunked 2 years ago and pretty much a direct “F-— You” to Levin from Roger Stone.
Even though Levin said he would support Cruz in the primary, but if Trump won the nomination he would vote for Trump. this was a bridge too far for Levin who basically said Trump needs to reel in his attack Dogs or else they will end up sinking Trump’s campaign.

Enjoy!
“count me as never Levin” on Friday and Anyday.
Someone will be elected POTUS and between Hillary and Trump I would take Trump. Not voting will send Hillary to the White House. Hillary is Mussolini in a pantsuit and would continue Obama’s destruction of the US. I would take my chances with Trump rather than live in Hillary’s fascist state.
$400k for Mark Levin books
“The Senate Conservatives Fund (PAC) purchasing massive quantities ($400,000) of Mark Levin’s books in exchange for favorable candidacy political opinion. Conveniently hidden by the radio host who avoids mentioning the financial conflict created,” the blog pointed out.
On Jan. 13, Ben Jacobs in an article published by the Daily Beast headlined “Pay to Play?” noted that Politico, in an article that now appears to have been scrubbed from Politico’s website, reported on how the GOP establishment seeks to buy Levin.
The Senate Conservatives Fund (SCF), a “conservative” fund founded by former Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina that backed Cruz in his Senate fight against Obamacare, spent $427,000 to buy copies of radio talk show host Mark Levin’s four-year-old book “Liberty or Tyranny” to distribute to donors – a purchase that should have earned Levin approximately $1 million in royalties.
Despite his many diatribes against Trump broadcast to his national radio audience, Levin hid the fact the son of his fiancé is a full-time staffer for Cruz.
The price was right.
$crew levin. He is a GOPe sell out . He loves Ted Scruz.
Well then COUNT ME AS NEVER LEVIN!
Levin is the biggest scum bag of this election.. He was always off on logic and conservatism slightly, but has jumped the shark lately...
Same bed as Glen Beck?
Levin is acting like a liberal..thinking emotionally and not rationally
Good. I don’t want you supporting me anyway.
