Karl Rove: Let's Put Trump's Poll Numbers in 'Perspective'

Donald Trump's poll numbers are good, political analyst Karl Rove conceded Thursday, but he urged viewers to put the numbers into "a little bit of perspective."

"He has been in the race for six weeks,"..."He has had a good move up, a good bump up, but we've seen this before.

"Look, there will be a lot of movement in this race. It is really still early."

And even though Trump is topping the polls as far as Republicans who would support him, his favorability ratings are suffering, Rove said.

-snip-

However, pointed out Rove, "30 percent of the Republicans say they definitely will not vote for him," marking the highest percentage of voters who said they would not support a candidate.

"In a June 15 Wall Street Journal/NBC poll, 66 percent said they could not vote for him," said Rove. And when it comes to his honesty, 58 percent of those in the Quinnipiac poll said Trump is not trustworthy, he added.

"Trump has a high floor and a low ceiling," Rove said. "He has a lot of enthusiasm going or some enthusiasm going, but he has got a ceiling."

Good for Newsmax to point out that Rove has got his goal posts on roller skates. Rove about 2 weeks also shilled a poll showing Trump with a high of 70% negatives. LoL

"It is really still early"

Isn't that what he said about the PA results in 2012?

With Trump leading in the poles, I would imagine that Rove is right up there with the Washington Cartel $hitting his panties....

Rove has a negative slant on Trump. That’s a good thing. The more the GOP-e dislikes Trump the better.

Now if Rove starts pimping for Trump we should all be worried. That would be a bad sign for sure.

Rove is the GOP’s carnival barker.

Let’s put Jeb Bush’s the percentage of Jeb Bush’s $100 million that goes to Karl Rove’s “consulting” firms in perspective.

By the way, I don’t want to create a vanity based on this, but anyone know who the Rino douchebag on Hannity an hour ago was?

There are two possibilities here.

Trump is on the up and up.

Trump is not on the up and up and everyone is in on it. The Democrats, the Republicans, the Media, and folks like McCain are acting like they don’t like him to fool us.

One way or another, this election makes everything become clear, right out in the open.

We may not get what we want, but it will be impossible for them to hide who they are after November of 2016.

Rove is a pudgy soft metrosexual blob of goo. I believe he was passed out of the backside of Chris Christie one night but was able to crawl out of the toilet.

I really like him a lot...
