Trump: Rove 'Doesn't Have a Clue' Still Thinks Romney Won
NewsMax ^ | June 21, 2015 | Greg Richter

GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump didn't take kindly to Republican operative Karl Rove saying on "Fox News Sunday" that people should ignore Trump as a serious candidate.

As he often does with his critics, Trump took to Twitter Sunday to denounce Rove:

Donald J. Trump
✔ ‎@realDonaldTrump

.@KarlRove still thinks Romney won! He doesn't have a clue!
@FoxNews

7:54 PM - 21 Jun 2015

Trump specifically addressed Rove's criticism that even though he announced his run on Tuesday, he still had not filed a one-page declaration of candidacy with the Federal Elections Commission.

Rove said Trump will put that off as long as possible because it will force him to lay out his vast assets and liabilities.

"He gets to have two 45-day extensions," Rove said. "He will delay filing that piece of paper, and mark my words, he will delay and ask for extensions as long as possible.”(continued)

Trump will delay showing his assets and liabilities? Um ...didn’t he show them at the press conference?

Not to defend Rove, but I still think Romney won, too.

[The irony is that Romney might actually have won if he’d fired Rove’s people instead of having them run his pathetic campaign.]

I think you have something there.

Any Republican conservative candidate that challenges Hillary to a one-on-one debate and hands her a$$ to her has my vote.

Cruz, Walker, et al are you listening? Of course, I know this will only happen in my dreams. But I can dream.

Why would Hillary Clinton debate a Republican one-on-one who doesn’t have the nomination when she doesn’t have hers either? When has that ever happened?

I recognized it immediately. Copy and paste it to Google and you get every translation and spelling.

Thanks

I think Tex is referring to the general election.

Way to far out for that. Cankles will not make it through the Sanders debates.

Rove is managing Trump?

Something that hurt Romney was that he returned to being pro-choice after he won the nomination, and ran pro-choice ads in Ohio,Virginia, and Wisconsin, he also reaffirmed his pro-gay Scout leader position of 20 years.

That showed a lot of people that he was what they had thought, all along.

If Hillary gets the Democratic nomination and Ted gets the Republican, she and her people will find some way to not debate him. Nixon didn’t debate McGovern in 1972.

I said it was a dream and dreams do not always make sense.

In the real world, maybe Cruz and Hillary will be the nominees when all is said and maybe not. Either way, in my mind they are as different as night and day politically. It would be interesting to see them go at it.

Whoever gets the nomination for each party, I hope will have a debate before the election. And hopefully it will be conducted by an neutral moderator, not some liberal media personality as has been done in the past.

Ted Cruz won both categories at the North American debate championships and came **this** close to winning at the World championships. Would you debate him?

I don’t think Hillary will be able to stand the heat and get the Democratic nomination. But if she does, I believe just about any GOP or third party nominee will nail her in a fair debate. The women is an empty suit and can’t recall when she said what to whom and whether she did or did not.

No. Romney couldn’t bring himself to include the Christians in his campaigns. They are the foot soldiers of the Republican Part, bringing in voters and going door-to-door during the elections.

Would you debate him?

Of course NOT and few there are that would. I think he knows the Constitution as well as anybody too. That's a dangerous combination. The Democrats know it and will avoid any debates with Cruz, especially now that he has some experience addressing issues on the Senate floor.

In high school he participated in a group called the Free Market Education Foundation, where he learned about Milton Friedman and other free-market economic philosophers.

He memorized the Constitution as a teenager and recited it across the state with a group of high school students. They called themselves the Constitutional Corroborators.

That’s not a very good example.

Nixon didn’t debate McGovern because he had no need to.

If Hillary cannot debate Sanders she will have a problem.

Also, the black race will not vote for Hillary. She is escorting Univision bigtime.

The fun part will be Hillary playing the victimized woman.
It is coming.

I’m fairly convinced Trump is just a showman, but damn if he doesn’t know how to tell the truth. Totally nailed Rove. I don’t think you could be more accurate and more insulting at the same time.
