Same here, but his dishonesty is undeniable at this point. I gave up on Mark completely when he recently spent an entire week attacking Trump on tariffs, while endlessly praising Reagan out the other side of his mouth on the same exact show, when anyone who closely follows these issues knows that Reagan implemented huge tariffs against Japan.

Mark was preying on those who don't know the history of such things, and this is just one example. He has painted everything that Trump does in the worst possible light, and not given him one ounce of credit on anything they should actually agree on, unless Mark then adds some snide comment on at the end. My life is simply too busy to listen to such negative, dishonest diatribe.

You're absolutely right. I used to take Levin's viewpoint on things as I knew little about re the Constitution, early American history, government. Now I can no longer do that. It makes me, and a lot of others, wonder how right he is about Article V and other legal interpretations he has made that have been attacked critically. Square one was we always assumed Levin was correct, and we can't do that anymore. I think that is who is left supporting him, the people who continue to assume he is always right due to their own inadequate knowledge.

Exactly, his show has actually turned into a bit of a cult following, at least the last couple of times I listened. Most every caller fawned all over him and already had his books, and promoted them further, and Mark then gave free Levin TV subscriptions to the ones who didn't already have it.

Not one dissenter with critical thinking skills is allowed. Millions of his former regular followers like me must be sitting there listening to the group speak, thinking any one of us could easily win the arguments against him, if he would dare let us on the air, much less debate honestly. I've heard many good intentioned callers get ridiculed, then cut off air but still ridiculed even more, but the number of them even willing to even waste their time with him has fallen, right along with his ratings. As that happens, it probably will devolve into something even more cultish like Beck, which is why I'm already out now.
