Trump can't seem to leave Karl Rove alone
Washington Examiner ^ | 12/10/15 | GABBY MORRONGIELLO

Posted on 12/11/2015 10:24:42 AM PST by jimbo123

Donald Trump's incessant criticism of longtime Republican strategist Karl Rove continues, with the leading GOP presidential hopeful now calling Rove an "establishment flunky."

In separate tweets Thursday, the brash billionaire accused Rove, a former senior adviser to President George W. Bush, of making "false statements" both in print, as a columnist for the Wall Street Journal, and on TV, as a Fox News contributor.

The tweets come less than 24 hours after Rove published his latest column, titled "Trump is the Democrats' Dream Nominee," in which he raises questions about the Republican front-runner's electability.

Fourteen months from now Rove will be managing a Burger King in Crawford, Texas.

Rove pretends to be an impartial observer, NOT.

He is a RINO and a Bush Amnesty Rino at that

Of course he wants Jeb. His job is to stick up for the GOPe.

I didn’t see him telling the GOP that they were in big trouble with the base. That they better start honoring there election commitments after 2 election cycles got them both the Senate and House.

I don’t recall that after the Cocran election he said anything about the despicable tactics Boss Hogg used.

Boner and McConnel went to war against the Tea party Rove didn’t warn them that “the chickens would come home to roost”

If Rove were half as smart as he thinks Trump wouldn’t have a totally Pissed off base just waiting for someone who talks straight and wants to get things done for a change.

Karl rove has been the architect of defeat, for the last two election cycles.

Time to put him out to pasture ... although i’d rather send him into the bayou in Spring, with a day’s food in a bag smeared in chicken fat.

Has it backwards

Yep. I briefly entertained the notion that the author was saying the Trump's popularity has so unnerved Rove, that Rove can't function in society any more, at least given Rove's WSJ article the other day.

If Rove and the rest of the RINOs had any sense they'd jump on the Trump Bandwagon fast!

But if they were that smart, they wouldn't be RINOs in the first place.

GO TRUMP!

No problem w/Trump “hitting” Rove as often as he feels necessary .... about time someone did it.

According to Rove, Trump cannot win the general election but Jeb Bush can. According to Rove, the Republicans need to nominate a moderate candidate who is electable; somebody like Romney or McCain. OK Karl, I understand what you are saying. Shut up and and go away.

Trump is the master of earned media.

He’ll have Rove doing commercials for him all weekend long.

“Trump understands how to do this better than anyone else. I have stopped worrying about his unorthodox methods and speeches. I used to have periodic uh-oh reactions to things he has said but then seen that they were calculated and produced desirable results.”

Ditto. Now when something seems out of whack, I just give it time. Like the Muslim moratorium - it came right after Obama’s weak speech to contrast the difference. Voters loved it! I figure he’s focusing on the general now and showing his strength vs more of the same weaknesses.
