[Hoot Gibson]

National Review is not what it once was because after William F. Buckley's death, it got away from what made it great. Embracing and endorsing politicians like George W. Bush and Mit Romney as conservatives was the wrong thing to do for a conservative publication. Aligning itself with conservatives against liberal Republican Donald Trump is a step in the right direction.

What is childish is Trump's belief that everybody who disagrees with him is a failure and deserving of a 140 character condemnation. I am not a fan of #politics. Trump is a self-proclaimed conservative because he thinks "being" a conservative will give him the best chance at winning the nomination. Trump is an outstanding propagandist but I am not falling for his shtick.

Disregard what Trump has said in the past 8 months and focus on what he said and did before he declared himself as a presidential candidate. Do you see Donald Trump as a man who was a conservative on June 1, 2015? I see an ambitious self-centered liberal.
