On the Saturday broadcast of “Justice” on Fox News Channel, GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump called in and discussed National Review, who published a so-called anti-Trump manifesto entitled “Against Trump.”
“Well, it’s a failing magazine, you know that. It’s been failing badly, and they’re getting some publicity,” Trump said of National Review.
He later added, “I can only say this — the National Review is a failing publication. It’s not going to be around long. And they’ll get some publicity. A lot of the writers think it’s going to help me more because people are tired of the negativity from these people. All they do is talk, but they don’t have solutions to anything, and so I mean, I’m fine with it. I’m not going to be reading it because I don’t read it very much anyway. But a lot of people don’t read it anymore.”

NR is an echo chamber. Everyone listening to them were already supporting another candidate like JEB! or Rubio.
So what does this NR outlash do? Nothing to Trump's primary numbers. Nothing at all. It just makes his supporters dig in more like an Alabama tick and then draws attention to how powerless the party elite is.
What real effect is there? NR is basically coming out and admitting Trump will win the primary and they the elite will support Hitlery. She will take their money.
The party PACs are wasting money millions of dollars to take Trump down. No one is listening.
Best advice for the GOP is stop eating their own and let the candidates campaign and the people vote.

When I think of National Review I think of William Crystal. I've never liked him. I don't like his arrogant condescending tone he always talks. His slow talking bullshit.
I can't believe Dan Quayle had that clown working for him.

William Kristol wrote that Trumpism is two-bit Caesarism in the latest issue . You may think he is wrong ;but Vicomte13 boasts that Trump will assume dicatorial powers once in office to make the changes he thinks the country needs.So maybe they have a point . They see how effectively the emperor is at making his fundamental changes by exceeding his constitutional mandate. Now the conservative base is looking for their own dicatator to level the playing field . Up steps Trump who tells them everything they want to hear . And they support him without regard to his qualifications, statements, integrity, credibility, knowledge, consistency, etc. MAYBE he will effectively give them everything they want . But ,a benign dictator is still a dictator .

You cannot have Imperium (called today International Community), without Imperator.
So either you resign from imperialism, take troops home, reduce defense by half and return to the original principles OR you keep on going to head-butt with the barbarian tribes and defiant powers of the East.
