Conservative authors are banding together to publish a manifesto Friday denouncing the ideas of Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump.
Leading conservatives including Erick Erickson, William Kristol and Yuval Levin have written essays for a special issue of National Review to be published Friday, The New York Times reports.
"Donald Trump is a menace to American conservatism who would take the work of generations and trample it underfoot on behalf of a populism as heedless and crude as The Donald himself," reads an editorial accompanying the essays in the issue, according to the newspaper.
The issue will include essays from 22 prominent conservative voices, according to CNN.

Erickson is not a conservative.
With “conservatives” like that, Trump’s numbers will just keep going up!
You’d think at some point these brainiacs would figure out that attacks by the likes of them are endorsements to the people inclined to support Trump and they’d be better of STFU.
This will help Trump rise in the polls.
I know where these “conservatives” can stick their manifesto....
Work of generations trampled??? I must be missing something on the rocket sled to hell ride the uniparty constructed.

They are wasting their time. Trump will be the nominee and the next President.
Exactly! I love these kinds of articles.
Erick Erickson, bloated douchebag, says what?
OK Conservative. Meaning what exactly? The s*** we’ve been handed by thirty years of Republican, supposedly conservative, rule?
Erickson and Krystol? If they are “leaders” who are the followers?
Rush needs to stop having this Erickson on as a guest.He disinvited Trump to a Red State function in early days of campaign. Rush does not endorse canidates. He has spent a lot of time talking bout Trump because he is explaining how the country got into the mess that even makes a Trump canidacy possible. This could not have happened at most any other juncture of our history

I EE still being referred to as a conservative? Ok.
I’m betting Trump is shaking in his boots right now, and will drop out of the race immediately.
I know I’ve been impatiently waiting to hear what Yuval Levin and Kristol have to say.
And their Pens.
