Karl Rove on Trump, first GOP debate: ‘I would show up if I were him
The Hill ^ | 08/17/2023 | LAUREN SFORZA

Posted on 08/17/2023 2:18:51 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Republican strategist and Fox News contributor Karl Rove suggested former President Trump should show up to the first GOP debate, which he has floated the idea of skipping.

Fox News’s Bill Hemmer asked Rove whether he would attend the first Republican debate next week if he were Trump, who has yet to announce whether he will attend. Rove said he would, noting that Trump will still face some problems if he shows up.

“There are dangers … if he shows up, he will be attacked by everybody in one way, shape or form,” he said on “America’s Newsroom.”

He said some GOP candidates, like former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, will be “hard” and “direct” when attacking Trump while others will try to “move around him.”

“Karl Rove said” is like saying, (the most popular President in American history with over 81 Million votes) “Joe Biden said ...”

Karl Rove on Trump, first GOP debate: ‘I would show up if I were him

Karl Rove always gets politics bass ackward. He is the worst political adviser I have ever seen.

Do not listen to anything Karl Rove says.

Rove, the guy who barely won two elections. Go represent Asa Hutchinson, he’s the kind of gracious loser you’re looking for.

If I were Trump I’d hold a livestream during the debate and simply after commentary to the debate as it was going on.

Guarantee his livestream would get far more eyeballs than the actual debate

And have Tucker Carlson moderate the livestream just to show FOX NEWS they can stick it where the sun does not shine.

Canned Ham works for FOX. They know that there will be a lot of people skipping this phony nonsense debate. We already know where all them stand, so no need to waste our time.

I vowed to never watch FOX again ( I do not not miss FOX at all) and I wouldn’t watch it even if Trump was in it.

I remember when Karl was labeled a genius around here. Now he is a chalk board retard.
