Sure is, that’s why they endorsed Cruz, along with the Bush Crime Family; the Clinton Crime Family; Snarly Carly, and a few others...
Good, they can take this endorsement and give it to their workers that Fixed Drudge Poll last night.
I’m a Cruz supporter and I’m almost as surprised by this as I was when Levin endorsed him. Which is to say, not at all.
Same reason though - Cruz is the only candidate that stands for conservatism and the constitution.
“”Rich Lowry has sand in his vagina!””
Sadly you are typical of many Trump supporters here at FR.
Cool. Welcome aboard, NR.
All things like this point out is how little National Review matters anymore. And I say this as someone who doesn’t have a strong opinion on whether Trump or Cruz should get the nomination.
NRO has maybe two or three good columnists and I don’t really care about what else it publishes.
Psych Diagnosis for Lowry and other National Review maggots posing as conservatives!
Narcissistic Rage as the Psychodynamic of Trump Derangement Syndrome
American Thinker ^ | 3/9/2016 | Debbie Taylor

The psychodynamics of narcissistic injury and rage have been studied for over a hundred years. Narcissism involves a grandiose and unrealistic self-image of personal perfection, brilliance, exaggerated admirableness, or special ability or powers. This ongoing condition involves a defense mechanism of self-delusion, which is unstable and becomes deranged when confronted by reality.
A psychological complex called the narcissistic injury, or mortification, arises from a blow to that unbalanced sense of self-worth. The blow exposes the gap between the narcissistic ideal and the actualities of the narcissist’s condition. Narcissistic injury provokes an uncontrollable desire for revenge against the individual who is perceived as unmasking the narcissist’s untethered self-worth.
Narcissistic rage cannot energize rational discourse. It takes the form of a personal, obsessive, burning hatred toward the person perceived as challenging the narcissistic delusion. Narcissistic rage is an effort to rebuild the false self-image and restore a sense of power through an attack against the threatening individual.
Psychology distinguishes between the venomous spewings of narcissistic rage and the justified stance of mature aggression. Several major right-wing pundits are maturely questioning and disagreeing with Donald Trump’s positions. But Trump’s independence in speaking truths about what the American people can do when they set their minds to something has unleashed narcissistic rage from the firmament of failed Republican candidates and insular, irrelevant right-wing punditry.
Prior to the Trump temblor, the right-wing establishment maintained power despite consistently avoiding the battles they promise to join, selling out ideals, and betraying voters. The elites developed a narcissistic character structure of self-aggrandizement untroubled by the reality of their consistent failure. They are now spewing personal vilification against Trump, which they have never directed against Obama or Hillary, because Trump exposes what they unconsciously perceive to be their own deficiencies.

Just when you thought that ship of fools was over capacity.
Hopefully the day arrives when many of these Trump supporters realize they are supporting someone from the old Nelson Rockefeller wing of the Republican Party.
I dunno - a NR endorsement used to mean something, and it certainly isn't what it means now. If I were Cruz I'd tell them to take it and shove it up their Yeb.
In other news, rain is wet.
There is a meme floating around, will see if I can find it. Reagan campaign needed phones at the their NY HQ and were told it would be 5 days or more before they could get phones. They called Trump and the phones were installed the next day.
I’ll see if I can get a link to it. Trump was fond of Reagan.
Have a good day!
One more reason to vote for Trump.
“Sadly you are typical of many Trump supporters here at FR.”
The word is “most,” not “many!” Ted Cruz is snake, who will do anything, say anything, and screw anyone to become president! People should be more affraid of a Cruz Presidency than a Trump one. You have to conciously suspend disbelief to support Cruz when you take his whole record into account. It’s what he “really is,” not what he “says he is,” that should matter. He’s a “one worlder” in pseudo-conservative garb.
They did endorse Rubio last year, but for months half the writers supported Cruz.
I’m SHOCKED!
