The powers of the elite are being threatened, their whole world is about to collapse.

No more invites to parties.

No more pronouncements from on up high regards the lesser, and how they should think, and vote.

No more king making.

We are no longer satisfied with cake.

They threw away their influence.

Same with Mark Levin.

“the one who would win... the most right, viable candidate who could win.”
So when the GOP wins with Trump and he has “America Great Again”, will they eat their words? Poor bitter old men and women of the National Review.

This may backfire on them in a very big way.

Thanks for the ping. I thought the whole thing was pretty juvenile. It’s not really the role of NRO to “take down” someone they see as insufficiently ideologically aligned with them. That’s the type of stuff Marxist splinter groups do.

Rich Lowry’s panties have been in a twist since day one of the Trump campaign. He was shocked Trump would come after him with his low rate articles and made it personal. He and their whole staff are no longer relevant. I used to go to NR as late as 2012 bit swore after Romney never again. I go to Breitbart, Drudge and Freerepublic mainly. I won’t even click on a NR article anymore.

” the Nat Rev took a shot - not at Trump - but at the GOP-e that is now supporting Trump. “

Oh, yeah the RCN and E proved that when they sent Nikki Haley out to shoot down Trump on national TV instead of attacking the Obama/Hillary agenda and foreign policy.

The National Review is establishment (RINO).

They are obviously not supporting Trump.

Well said and right on the money.

The Movement will just continue to grow.

Americans are projecting every source of anger, resentment, frustration and aggravation of the past seventy years and especially the last seven years onto Trump hoping he can fix it. He's not perfect and can't fix everything but he represents a counter-Washington persona.
