This is old news from around Labor Day, a few weeks after that debate that had Carly scoring points against Trump. Carly was the flavor of the week, for about three hours.
Yes, I know. I posted it as background and as a favor to Albion Wilde which I duly explained directly below the snips of the article.
This article prompted me to surmise that Lowry was so mad, stung, bruised and embarrassed by both Ailes and Trump that he tried to get back in Ailes’ good graces and simultaneously get even with Trump by publishing that insane Special Edition of NR featuring his Gang of 22.
It matters today because it is part of the backstory as to why National Review, of which Lowry is the editor, would have attempted to commit editorial suicide last week. To read the issue, you'd think Trump was an axe murderer, and everyone who supports him is ritually unclean.
