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.”

They are hoping that’s what happens, but it’s what happens when a POTUS gets bogged down, allows a recession, and breaks all his promises. I don’t see that part of the equation being fulfilled.

I suppose that the over 100 million people whose paychecks show higher take-home pay, and those whose stocks increase in value, are just going to toss it all away by letting democrats take over congress?

Rove and Perino need to set up housekeeping together in a little shack on a corner of Dubya’s ranch. They can bask in the glow of Bush wonderfulness 24/7 and leave us the hell alone.

The GOP is going to lose a lot of the purple states. Tax hikes don’t inspire confidence.

It is common knowledge or was in the College Republican daze. His endowment would be tough to miss in the open showers even by those who pride themselves in not noticing such things. It is part of who he is/was.

He is not handsome but he was young and slender back in the CRNC tenure and he took that position seriously. He signed my Fieldman School diploma that hangs over my computer hutch.

I remember another CRNC goat saying that Rove would be president some day. I remember a West Point Army Officer in my AOB class humorously saying that “if I had a c*ck like that I would rule the world” referencing John Holmes. Well Karl was in that league easy.

Rove isn’t wrong here. The Republicans have to get onboard with the MAGA agenda and they need to fire up and motivate the Trump voter... if they don’t they very well will lose the house.

Dems will be fired up and motivated to show up... many a red district in deep blue states could get flipped. If republicans don’t get the Trump /MAGA voter motivated to show up and counter it by taking blue districts in red states they very well may lose the house.

Basically they need to get on board MAGA and Trump need to campaign just as hard as he did during his campaign firing up and motivating the MAGA voter to turn out. Make sure they understand what is at stake and hey they need to show up.

It wasn’t long ago, Freepers were hailing Rove as a magnificent bastid.

No one cares what you think Karl. You’re irrelevant.
