GOP strategist Karl Rove: Republicans in ‘big trouble,’ could lose House in 2018 (Barf)
The Washington Times ^ | January 7, 2018 | Bradford Richardson

GOP strategist Karl Rove says Republicans are in danger of losing their majority in the House of Representatives in the 2018 midterm elections.

Asked how much trouble Republicans are in, Mr. Rove responded, “Big trouble.”

“The president’s approval rating is in the high 30s, and the Republicans are 24 seats in the House away from losing their majorities,” he said on “Fox News Sunday.”

Tokyo Rove, spreading his usual FUD.

Karma will eventually get him.

Betting we’re going to lose the house is just playing the odds. Midterm elections usually favor the minority party.

It will be clearer later this year, perhaps the start of spring whether the GOP can hold fast on an agenda.

Rove missed this too... Outside of left wing nutcases and members of the CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS Americans don't like illegals...

He (Schumer) has 10 Democrat senators up for re-election in November in states that voted for Trump. Will Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, John Tester of Montana, and Claire McCaskill of Missouri be willing to tell their voters that they think amnesty for a group that includes MS 13 members is so important that the government ought to be shut down?

If Republicans don't fix election fraud, they could lose in 2018. The more they ignore the problem, the bolder Dems will be.

Yo...Trump...are any of your pals listening?

Rove was the one who basically made Trump possible, he should take responsibility.

Yes, Republicans could lose the House. The President’s party normally loses seats in the midterms. However with a healthy economy, reasonable candidates, and a good campaign, Republicans may hold both houses of Congress.

Anybody's predictions now are pure horse crap. Whether the Rs are going to lose big, or whether the Rs are going to hold. (or improve)

Here's why. We are in a strange time. The economy is booming and more people are doing better. However (and whether you like it or not here on FR), the President is personally very unpopular with a wide swath of people.

Will people vote against Trump and the Rs because they don't like Trump? Or will they vote to reward the Rs because things are generally going so well? Again, this is a strange time with a booming economy and a personally unpopular president. Very rare situation. So anybody's prediction is just crap.

With that said, I wouldn't put it past the Rs to tank at least 1 chamber, because they need a bogie man, and if they hold the House/Senate/Presidency, they don't have an excuse for not passing the stuff they say they are going to pass. If they lose the House, they can blame those wascally wabbits, the House Democrats.

A distinct possibility, fix election fraud with every means available or the consequences will be harsh for Republicans and for President Trump. And among other things, fight the democrats with the same SURPRISES they spring on Republican candidates late in the game. Fight fire with fire and anything else that works.

Rove is drumming up business. He’s laughing all the way to the bank.
