Mark Levin slams former McCain aide Nicolle Wallace, says Obama should be impeached [VIDEO]

On Wednesday’s broadcast of his radio, conservative talker Mark Levin went on the offensive against former McCain presidential campaign aide Nicolle Wallace for her criticisms of Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” earlier in the day.

But first Levin took a shot at the “Morning Joe” program for being a platform for “the destruction of conservatism.”

“Of course [Wallace] shows up on the ‘Morning Joe,’” Levin said. “This is a program that has as its mission the destruction of conservatism as specific individuals as such as Ted Cruz. The fact is, it doesn’t have an audience, so it’s mission won’t be accomplished. But it sheds some light on how these entrenched Republicans — how they think and why the country simply won’t survive unless we bypass them and defeat them.”

In her “Morning Joe” appearance, Wallace accused Cruz of being intellectually dishonest when he explained how to defund Obamacare with the threat of a government shutdown, and said he was lying to voters when he said President Barack Obama could not be impeached because there were not the votes to do so.

Levin, author of “The Liberty Amendments: Restoring the American Republic,”  went on to rebut Wallace’s claim that Cruz was lying and said that Obama should be removed from office.

“Really, Nicolle Wallace? Do you understand past impeachment efforts and the effort to impeach Nixon?” he said. “Do you know what high crimes and misdemeanors means? Even George Will, unwittingly of course, laid out the case when a president conducts himself, as Will and Krauthammer and others have said although they would distance themselves from the ‘i’ word, when a president has conducted himself in ways that usurp federal law, usurp the Constitution, suspend federal statutes, violate the Constitution — that’s precisely what the impeachment clause is all about, Nicolle Wallace. And [Ted Cruz’s] answer is correct,” he continued. “We don’t have the votes. Otherwise, he should be removed. But he won’t be removed and so the will suffer. His lawlessness becomes institutionalized.”

Watch:

 

Levin said Wallace was part of the Republican Party that was leading the country astray and would continue to lose elections if they listened to her counsel.

“Bufoonish, absolutely buffoonish,” he said. “Absolutely ineffective. Impotent. And no, Ted Cruz isn’t lying and he’s not fear-mongering. He’s telling the truth, as a matter of fact. A leaderless, gutless, rudderless Republican Party that will continue to lose if it keeps this up — if it continues to listen to people like Nicolle Wallace.”

According to Levin, Wallace’s remarks shouldn’t dispirit conservatives, but infuriate them then motivate them to defeat that “wing” of the GOP.

“We have a political war to win,” Levin added. “Oh, yes, even at the federal level we have a political war to win. And the first war we need to win is against the Nicolle Wallace types, the McCain, Bush, Christie, etc., etc., Nixon, Ford, Rockefeller, Scranton-wing of the Republican Party. Reagan had to do it and he did it. We have to do it, too. And I feel we will.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
