Thanks for your comments. I appreciate the mention of your
observations.

My use of the word begrudgingly was meant to address his
admission he would vote for Trump in 2016.

I don’t attribute it to his support now.

Look, if it’s a guy that didn’t have any concept of
Conservatism and he trashed Trump even after it was him or
Hillary Clinton, I’d have a lot more easy time forgiving
him.

Levin was well versed in both Conservatism and Clinton.
He knew damn well what a term for her would mean to the
nation. He was not an ill informed man. He did this
knowing full well what the ramifications were, and IMO
it was all about his EGO.

Screw the nation, folks need to listen to me.

Mark, FAIL!

He came around because of the Clinton threat. But I attribute the delay to his pining for Cruz. In those days Cruz was Levin's image of pure Constitutional conservatism. It was somewhat of a mirage as we found out later. But Levin was essentially blinded by it (IMO).

I won’t dispute your arguments about Levin, because I don’t remember the dates and details of all his neverTrump betrayals.

I do clearly remember him being a neverTrumper and I was extremely angry with him because I thought he should have known better and I knew a lot of conservatives who followed him and respected his opinions.

I think he’s genuinely contrite - he’s admitted he was wrong about and seems to hold President Trump in the highest regard. That’s why I am letting bygones be bygones.

Just my humble opinion.

Exactly. He disgusts me now. I’m watching the interview with Barr now but I despise Levin. Absolutely despise him.
