Mark Levin Rips Trump Defenders for Russia ‘Joke’ Excuse: You Think This Is Funny?!

by Josh Feldman | 2:42 pm, July 28th, 2016 AUDIO

Conservative radio host Mark Levin last night went after Donald Trump and his “Rockettes” in the “pseudo-conservative” media for attempting to downplay his invitation for Russia to track down Hillary Clinton‘s emails.

He pointed to Newt Gingrich and others calling it a joke, crying, “Do you think it’s a joke? Do you think it’s funny? Do you think it has consequences?”

What concerned Levin is that this may not be the kind of joke that “should be made by a presidential candidate,” especially when Vladimir Putin is almost definitely listening to Trump’s “lounge act.”

He said Putin clearly doesn’t think Trump will be tough to deal with, especially now that––as Levin put it––foreign agents have concluded from Trump’s remarks that “we can hack away to our heart’s desire.”

And I don't think anyone in America anywhere near my age is going to think it was funny.

Russia poses a threat. It is not a sitcom.

Putin does not think it is a joke. Putin is going to run with it. Donald Trump telegraphed his intentions loud and clear. Sabotage Hillary Clinton and there will be a huge payoff for Russia if Donald Trump is elected.
