Levin is a cheerleader, maybe a step or two above Hannity. And he loves front runners. Two years ago, Levin ripped Trump for a lot of things, including his position on tariffs. Now Trump can do no wrong.
Levin in 2016:
Quote:
While Trump and his surrogates denounce free trade, proclaiming that they stand with and for America’s working men and women, they find it hard to explain away the billionaire’s own practices for most of his business career. As it turns out, Trump has never shown any qualms about using foreign labor, foreign capital and even foreign-owned companies to service his personal interests and acquire wealth.
...
Remember, a tariff is really just a tax, the cost of which is imposed on the American people. The higher the tariff, the higher the tax. Imagine what a 45 percent increase in the price of goods made, say, in Japan would do to a middle class family shopping for a Toyota or Honda. While Trump and his surrogates may have the money to pay the higher prices his policies would cause, many Americans – who are already having difficulty making ends meet – do not.

Off the top of my head, I can name at least 4 writers just at National Review who are better conservative thinkers and political analysts than Levin: David French, Victor Davis Hanson, Jonah Goldberg, and Andrew C. McCarthy. All of them have good things to say about Trump, but point out when he gets it wrong.
