‘Against Trump': National Review Slams GOP Front-Runner

Some conservatives have turned on Republican candidate Donald Trump. The publication National Review published a scathing article on Trump, questioning how deep his conservative feelings go and even said that "he and Bernie Sanders have shared more than funky outer-boroughs accents."

The publication also published 22 pieces by conservative thinkers, like Glenn Beck, voicing their opposition to Trump's campaign. 

"Trump is a philosophically unmoored political opportunist who would trash the broad conservative ideological consensus within the GOP in favor of a free-floating populism with strong-man overtones," the editors say in the beginning of the piece.

Trump hit back, telling reporters before an event in Las Vegas that "The National Review is a dying paper; its circulation is way down… I guess they wanted to get a little bit of publicity, but that's a dying paper."

National Review publisher Jack Fowler wrote late Thursday that after the "Against Trump" editorial was published, a top RNC official called to disinvite the magazine from the February debate.
