If the Democrats pick up ONE House Seat, the Media will call it a Blue Wave.

That’s exactly what McConnell did a few months ago. Why would Trump do that?

I hope he’s as right about this as he was about his 2016 hilLIARy winning predictions...

Karl Rove is the Cheap Labor Express strategist.
Only Bush League Republicans care what he says.

I see no down-side in pumping up the base and claiming victory already. It may or may not happen ... but what the heck?
To: yesthatjallen
I was a little unsure about this Red Wave business. Now I feel a lot more confident about it. “Rove, you magnificent bastard” was fun and all back in the day, but time has moved on.

Is he on the Soros payroll?
To: yesthatjallen
Assuming good will on the part of Rove (big, and likely false, assumption), he is playing small ball, hoping to eke out a win in the bottom of the ninth off of a suicide squeeze or sacrifice fly.
Trump plays for the fences, and maybe doesn’t always get there on his first at-bat, but is always considered a threat, drawing more walks than average, and always keeps you in the game.

I do think the Democrats will gain seats in the U.S. House this November.
The hype about "blue wave," "100 House seats," "taking control of the Senate," that kind of stuff is probably pie-in-the-sky though, on par with the old favorite "400+ electoral votes for Hillary Clinton?"
To: yesthatjallen
Wow, Trumps says there may be a red wave, no comment on size, just that there might be a red wave instead of a blue way and Rove thinks this is too much?! Is he afraid Trump is encouraging Trump Republicans at the expense of RINOs?

And Karl, your version of neocon compassionate conservatism is EXACTLY how we ended up with a foreign born Marxist in the Whitehouse for eight years...

I would love to wake up some morning and read that Karl Rove left this mortal realm after choking on a large piece of unchewed meat at a Golden Corral pig-out.

He was not at all a Magnificent Bastard. He flopped in 2006.
To: LibWhacker
And to think we once called Rove a “Magnificent B@st@rd!”
DJT is the president we hoped W would be but never was-—no doubt partially from Rove giving W cr@ppy RINO advice.

Actually, it couldn’t hurt to downplay it a bit. Too many voters might think we’ve got it in the bag and fail to get out and participate.

Karl, you've licked too many liberal and RINO sphincters clean to be taken seriously. Thanks yesthatjallen.
