As if mean tweets were not enough, he now starts resembling Brandon in his foolish statements. Some people just self destruct to appear interesting.

I have nothing against Karl Rove. I met him once or twice in passing. But he’s a predictable mouthpiece for the GOP establishment and, respectfully, is often wrong in his prognostications.
His attack in the WSJ on Trump as the fall guy for Tuesday’s disappointing outcome is more of the same. Many of the candidates for whom Rove raised funds and worked with McConnell to promote did quite poorly.
And the funds McConnell, et al, spent in Republican primaries smearing MAGA or non-establishment candidates was very destructive. Too many in the establishment put their own lust for power ahead of the best interests of the GOP and, ultimately, the country.
Rove, McConnell, the GOP establishment, etc., have a bad habit of attacking the GOP’s base. They did the same after the red tsunami in 2010, when the Tea Party delivered over 60 GOP seats to the House.
They blamed the Tea Party for choosing poor candidates in the GOP Senate primaries; otherwise, it was contended, the GOP would have picked more Senate seats. Truth be told, this crowd was also anti-Reagan decades ago, and supported Gerald Ford, another electoral disaster.
It’s time for McConnell and this gang to go. They take credit for raising and spending hundreds of millions of dollars and then blame conservatives (the base) when their efforts fall short. We don’t need any lectures from them.
Because I am loyal conservative and don’t stab Trump in the back and hypocritically run and embrace the GOPe means I hate the country? Trump has done more for this country and conservatism than Desanctimonious and GOPe minions have ever done.
Excellent post!
Trump would say it’s not me they are after, it’s you they are after, I’m just standing in the way.
Maybe Trump needs to now get out of the way and let the backstabbers get what they deserve...the GOPe Desantimonious, McConnell, McCarthy, Rove, Ryan, Romney et al.
Other side is trying to separate Trump from his base, yet AGAIN.
DeSantis is Trump’s next immediate rival. He’s roughing him up a bit. So what?
Trump doesn’t get enough credit from the pundits for DeSantis’ rise, The way they are gushing over DeSantis like school girls is sickening. The least they could do is drop their pom poms.

Yeah yeah. That is the common theme among you neverTrumpers. There is no fool like a ncfool.
It’s the MSM. And Trump is falling for it.
Congratulations!
Look at the division being caused, another success for the democrats!
Let’s attack policy successes and failures. NOT personality cults.
Split the base, split the base, split that base. Let’s not do things this way.
We need leaders in it for the long-haul. Trump will be 78 years old if nominated. I do not want so much bad blood that Trump doesn’t have an awesome pick for VP. Yes, I think it should be DeSantis, but the two men will need to work together. Attacking personality and name calling is not a winning strategy.
In fact, that strategy is what lost us the Red Wave. If the candidates and pundits had stayed on point with policy issues, policy focused we would have had a much better result. They should have let the dem’s stay with their narrative of nazi, fascist, terror name calling.
Trump should provide his support to the Republican winners. These negative personal attacks do discredit to himself most of all, but also bring divisiveness within the party. And they are a huge reason many Republicans stayed away from the polls in battleground states in 2020, costing him that election.
You OBVIOUSLY do NOT live in Florida, NEWBIE!
Maybe someone in the GOP would like to win elections again.
Trump front and center on the national stage has now cost us the past three elections. The Senate is out of reach and there’s a slim but growing chance we might not even take the House. God help us if this happens.
Jeb is still available.
Nope. Not interested in old has-been Boomers like Jeb or Trump.
There’s new blood out there we can win with.
Not disagreeing, just saying those who are focusing their rage on individual figures and their ages, although satisfying, are bound to be disappointed.
Better to focus on the practical reasons for Tuesday’s results - the GOPe, redistricting failures & leftover pandemic measures.
And a few absolutely horrible candidates.
Desantis is a fool, just like Cruz.
Thats what Mitch says.
