National Review loses its presidential debate partnership because of anti-Trump issue

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump

National Review is paying the price for its special edition anti-Trump issue out Friday, "Against Trump Symposium." The Republican National Committee reportedly "disinvited" the conservative magazine from participating in the upcoming Feb. 25 presidential debate after it posted 22 essays from conservative thinkers explaining why Donald Trump should not become the Republican presidential nominee.

"We expected this was coming," National Review publisher Jack Fowler said of the RNC snub. "Small price to pay for speaking the truth about The Donald."
