The conservative writer who organized the big anti-Donald Trump manifesto out tonight, along with three of the writers who signed on, to explain why they do not want Trump as president and do not think he is a great vessel for conservative values.
National Review is running a huge anti-Trump manifesto available online later tonight, organized by editor Rich Lowry. The writers include Glenn Beck, conservative media watchdog Brent Bozell, Erick Erickson, Bill Kristol, Dana Loesch, Michael Medved, evangelical leader Russell Moore, former Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Katie Pavlich, John Podhoretz, and others––for a grand total of 22 major anti-Trump conservatives. -

The schism is deep and wide. Mark Levin said if you find yourself asking the kinds of questions these people were, it means you're probably a conservative because your an independent thinker who values liberty.
PING (we’re not alone asking these questions that need to be asked, hopefully)
I don’t see any respectable conservative in the list.
Let’s be clear.
Just because they dislike Trump does not mean they like Cruz.
Most of, not all of these names are either Bush/Rubio fans.
That youtube is dripping. Better wrap it.
Maybe they can do the next issue on why nothing’s been done about illegals, the VA, and the national debt for the past 20 years...
Disappointed in Loesch and Pavlich.
Not necessarily true, there is a mixed bag.
I see about 8 on the list I know have come out for Cruz. There’s also definite RINOs like Kristol. Squishes like Medved. And Sowell is one of those that really believes Cruz is a showboater event though he agrees with him on most issues.
Minus Lowry, for the 3 that were interviewed tonight in the video, I don’t think any of them would be considered Bushies.
Dana Loesch takes bailouts, works for Glenn Beck and endorsed Bushie Congresswoman Ann Wagner( R- MI) against the tea party guy.
Pavlich is maybe the only conservative on the list. & Sowell.
They have ‘outed’ themselves as RINOs.
Status quo first.
Oh and BTW. The way things are going the day after the election I will be registering as an Independent. I want the Rep Party to DIE.
It took a while for her boss to turn her. She's dark side now.
Plus, she's never gotten over being snubbed by the Trump campaign. It's bothered her to this day.
People arn’t interested in heavy lifting, they will pony up for the perceived quick fix every time.
It’s the establishment vs. Trump. Powerful forces, I’d say spiritual in nature.
It takes one to know one. No surprise.
Why, because they have principles and beliefs vital to conservatism that they are unwilling to compromise and view Trump with great skepticism? Did ANY of these people in the video go after Donald Trump personally, or did they stick to the issues?
With enemies like this, who needs friends?
Really, read the names...its a list of the usual suspects
Here is the response from Roger Stone. And Charles Hurt and the question is. Where was the conservative outrage for the bailouts etc?

Ha! The only “major” thing Eric Erickson is a major fat ass dork.
Bill Kristol? Michael Medved? Erick Erickson? et al. This is a WHO’S WHO of GOP ELITE ESTABLISHMENT flaks. Washington Elite, Cocktail Party INSIDERS AND POLITICAL CLASS. MEDIA ROYALTY and globalists. Cruz should have got Goldman Sachs or Robert Mercer to pay them to keep their mouths shut.
