KARL ROVE: Donald Trump Is Discrediting The Entire Republican Party
Business Insider ^ | 3/31/11 | Steven Loeb

Posted on 03/31/2011 7:47:38 PM PDT by jimbo123

onald Trump appeared on the O'Reilly Factor last night and proceeded to reiterate, yet again, how he doesn't think that Obama was born in the United States and that he is not showing his birth certificate because it might show that he is a Muslim and on and on.

It was all of the same stuff he has been saying over and over and over and over and over for the past two weeks. Thankfully, Trump's point of view was not shared by the rest of O'Reilly's guests or even by O'Reilly himself.

During their interview, O'Reilly expressed disbelief that Trump was actually a birther at all, and O'Reilly's next guest, Karl Rove, also tried to distance himself and the rest of the Republican party from Trump's newfound birtherism.

Wow! Thus far, just one single voice of reason on this thread. I’m baffled by the anti-Rove comments in light of the fact that Rove is correct about Trump.

If Trump were to try putting the squeeze on China, they’ll react by dumping our bonds on the market.

They can't. There is no one to take them. China is more vulnerable than we are on the T-bills they hold.

China doesn't have to dump all of our bonds to hurt us...all they have to do is start dumping a few. That will cause a stampede. After the prices drops about 50% they can then buy up the rest of the bonds for a song...and have greater influence over the US...and our oil/coal.

Yep, he was a real genius. Look at that BIG win he orchestrated for GW in 2000. What an architect.

I think I am safe in saying that he long ago lost the “Magnificent” part.

These “individuals” who are all caught up in this “birther” issue have the appearance of placing all their eggs in that one basket. The unfortunate thing is, that unless some actual substantive evidence surfaces which proves unequivocally that Obozo’s Presidency is unconstitutional, that basket has not bottom in it. Everything they place in that basket falls out the hole in the bottom.

I completely agree with Karl Rove on this one. Trump is not a friend to Conservatives.

Watch it!!! I've been saying that on this forum since the thread started. I've been accused of being first, Karl Rove and then, Bill O'Reilly. Its hilarious!! Some of the folks here go wild over anyone that feeds the "birther" issue. Heck, if Michelle 0bama was a "birther" folks on this board would be pushing her for POTUS.

The birther issue has become so viral that its going to destroy conservatives. We need to be smarter about issues and less emotional.

Rove trashed COD and then Sarah. He lost me on election night when he whined like a 2 year old cause his liberal buddy lost the primary to COD.

I’m completely baffled by these people’s thinking - or, rather, lack of thinking.

Back when the U.S. had 20 million less illegal aliens. Yes I remember that.

I think Trump and Rove are in this together as a carefully-scripted strategy to split the Palin primary vote and get the nomination to Romney.

Nah. Trump is all for Trump. Rove is for someone he can *manage*.

If anything, Trump will make Sarah Palin look even more experienced and level-headed, and Romney will always look like the sissy he truly is.

You give Barry way too much credit. If he had it, he would have released it long ago. Something embarrassing on it? He would have released it after the election was over.

With all the evidence that I have seen and all the questions about Obama that have no answers, for anyone to mock so-called birthers just shows that they are uninformed.

It should be obvious that if 0bamao releases his long form BC now, no matter how legitimate it is, he discredits himself enormously.

The Bushes tried to do in Rick Perry, too. Perry is pretty much a political hack, but he has been far more sucessful as governor than Bush. The problem is that they backed Kay Bailey, who is not much. They don’t Palin,either. Less so ,since she campaigned for Perry. As for Rove, yes, he is a family retainer.

He discredits himself enormously by not releasing it. But due to the politics of the situation, only a certain percentage of political activists and commentators and citizens in general will acknowledge that fact.

Some are helping Obama to cover up his totally inexcusable behavior, others run from the issue to avoid being smeared by the MSM, and then others look at for what it is and acknowledge that Obama has something to hide, or is engaging in very bizarre, psychotic behavior.

The birther issue has legs only because Obama is so strange. He ACTS like an immigrant. Except he has no cultural roots anywhere.

“The birther issue has become so viral that its going to destroy conservatives. We need to be smarter about issues and less emotional.”

It is the “all of the above” approach. You work on the issues and I'll work on the fact that an empty suit, Socialist, community organizer, America hating, new world order promoting, George Soros bought & paid for, social justice engineering, collective salvation, Black Liberation Theology believing Muslim, foreign born communist is usurping the presidency of the United States. Emotional??? you are damn right!

The Bushes don't hesitate to trash and damage any politician who gets in the way of their plans. Remember how they treated Katherine Harris as she planned to run for the senate seat they wanted Mel Martinez to have? And, as you say, they don't exactly wish Sarah well in any future endeavors.
