National Review says he should be removed: Trump Meets the Four Tests for Impeachment | National Review

It doesn't, I'm afraid.

The article is preceded by this editorial explanation and disclaimer:

Editor’s Note: National Review has inaugurated a new feature, “To the Contrary,” where an NR writer dissents from NR’s official editorial line and another writer replies. NR opposes impeachment, but below, Ramesh Ponnuru makes the case for it in an article that originally appeared in the December 31, 2019, issue of the magazine. A reply by Michael Brendan Dougherty is nearby.

Maybe they simply accept that it's a view seriously held by some of their readers, or at least a view that some of its readers are willing to consider as a serious proposition, and are acknowledging that constituency by publishing the article.
