National Review disses Donald Trump: Why the magazine's plan won't work
FoxNews ^

Posted on 01/25/2016 12:30:14 AM PST by TigerClaws

In a last dash, final "hail mary" attempt to end a Donald Trump run for the White House once and for all, the National Review has decided to eviscerate the Republican front runner on the basis that he is not a conservative.

It will not work.

Disagree with NR if you like but why denigrate their opinion as “a last dash, final “hail mary”? Is it the 4th quarter already? In January?

Why is it that anyone who doesn’t want to coronate this extremely questionable character is subject to ridicule?

I’ll remind you that zero votes have been cast yet. His majesty is yet uncrowned.

If we relied on polls John Kerry would have been president and Matt Bevin wouldn’t be KY Governor.

I can’t remember the last time I saw a poll that showed any republican winning in Michigan yet we have a supermajority.

Thanks.

I don’t know what is going on with him. He came back from his two week vacation a different person — dramatic, venomous, enraged, etc.

NRO’s unprecedented attack on Trump is just another dying gasp of the Uniparty.

Thanks for posting this. It’s one of the most cogent analyses of Trump’s popularity and most pithy descriptions of the GOPe’s failures and cluelessness that I’ve seen to date.

Doesn’t mention that the NR never bashed anyone pro-amnesty: W, McCain, Ryan,...

just made a generous contribution to National Review.

A contribution? You kidding? Are they that desperate for readership that they have to have a pledge drive like PBS? How about subscribing instead, that way you can enjoy the praise they heap on their establishment RINOS.

Some of us are sick and tired of the bullying.

And some of us of sick and tired of spaghetti spined politicians who won't take a stand. Remember if you stand for nothing, you'll fall for everything.

I hope it was a really big one! That moribund rag is going to need every penny it can get now.

For a short time, Ike spewed out conservative Taft-like rhetoric, but he didn’t mean it.
