No question that Rove is a #NeverTrumper. He has been ever since Trump announced his run for the Presidency. He is a Bushie who has never reconciled himself to the fact that Trump won the WH. He was critical of Trump every step of the way predicting defeat.
Rove had a legitimate claim that Trump probably didn't fire Comey in the best of ways. Of course we may not know the entire story of all that yet either.
But for Rove to take that fopaw to the next level and claim that Trump now jeopardizes his new nominee to the FBI head and he will be forced to have a special investigator is a step way too far if you are supposedly on our side. Which we know Rove is not.He's a cabal all the way employee and as you say has always hated Trump. The President is his own man and cabal employess don't want that.
Rove and most of Fox is NeverTrump. Did not even watch it this morning since you knew what you were getting. May as well be CNN.
