Karl Rove: If Trump is nominee, GOP will lose White House and Senate
The Hill ^ | 1/8/16 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 01/08/2016 12:39:03 PM PST by jimbo123

The Republican Party will lose the White House, the Senate and many of its House seats if Donald Trump becomes the party's presidential nominee, according to Karl Rove.

"If Mr. Trump is its standard-bearer, the GOP will lose the White House and the Senate, and its majority in the House will fall dramatically," the Republican wrote in an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal.

Rove, who was a top adviser to former President George W. Bush, said nominating Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) for president could also be dangerous.

"If the nominee is Ted Cruz the situation is still dicey," he wrote.

Is this the same Rove who was rambling like a madman on election night 2012? The guy who assured us that Romney would pull it out?

Who can take this pudgy douchebag seriously any more? His credibility has gone the way of the dinosaur.

Rove, Trump wasn’t around in 2008 and 2012 and your establishment GOP had no trouble losing the White House and Senate with their beloved RINOs.

Anyone remember Karl's reaction to the fact that his candidate did not win in 2012?

He is real bad with predictions.

Rove had been very good at picking the pockets of GOPe donors up until recently.

So, if we don’t nominate the Progressive Republican, we will get the Progressive Democrat? We are supposed to eat the clean end of the turd or the dirty end?

Sounds like the stuff that civil wars are made of.

When Karl Rove appears on my TV, I immediately change the channel. He is a complete loser and Fox doesn’t get it, so they lose too.

Karl, he would say and do anything to keep that cushy high paying job he has had for these many years. It’s gonna be tough for him to go out and attempt to find another at such a grand salary. How about we send this snake to that high grass across the field and meadow on the far side of the fence. Sorry, old man, find your bacon elsewhere, no more here for you. The GOP is history, a dud of a party that is bleeding red throughout the country. You lose, we WIN. It is as simply as that. We’ve left you..skidaddled out of the barn and free, free at last from the likes of you and your ilk. Toodles you ignorant little man.

Tokyo is right they will lose the senate. The GOPE has shown it is utterly worthless in control of the senate, house and congress. I have no reason whatsoever to go waste my time voting for a Republican congressional or senatorial candidate in my district and state. This will happen regardless of whomever the Republican presidential candidate might be. GOPE you brought this on yourselves with your lies and corruption boys and girls.
