Monday night at American Airlines Center in Dallas, Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump attacked Republican political consultant and former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove, calling him a “total incompetent jerk.”
Trump said, “OK, so George Will is a disaster. Honestly, another one, Karl Rove. He’s terrible. He’s terrible. He’s terrible. He still thinks that Mitt Romney won. He’s still going around saying, I think he won. This guy—think of this—he ought to be on Wall Street. He raises money pretty well. The last cycle, the last presidential election, he raised $434 million and didn’t win one race. Can you believe that? Can you believe it?”
He continued, “But you look at some of these guys and they are like boilers, okay—real estate—they are like boilers. Bill O’Reilly said the other night, Bill O’Reilly is a great guy, good guy, great guy. Although he’s tough and he’s tough with me, that I can tell you. Some people say, how can you say he’s a great guy, but he’s fair. But I saw Karl Rove on a show the other night and the name Trump came up and you could see it was like a boiler ready to explode. I think the guy is a total incompetent jerk, but him and there are others.
But I would say this, anybody that gives him, Karl Rove and others the group of losers, anybody that gives them money, you’re losers yourself, doesn’t make sense because they don’t know what they are doing.”

This proposed model has the President directly managing six subordinates which is optimal.
In non-cabinet level jobs
Sheriff Clarke should be FBI Director
Michelle Bachman as IRS Commissioner under Secretary Carl Icahn in Treasury
Admiral James A. “Ace” Lyons as Secretary of The Navy.
LTC Allen West as Secretary of The Army
Lynnette “Diamond” Hardaway and Rochelle “Silk” Richardson would be great as President Trumps Co-Press Secretaries.
And that paves the road on his way to it.
The going rate for managers is 15% which is why Trump is hated so bad by the election money machine.
Pray America is waking
Karl Rove has a liberal agenda that almost cost the GOP the 2000 presidential race. Karl Rove and GWB lost the popular vote. It was a miracle that they scraped by with their “Compassionate Conservative” bull %@$.
The popular vote went to Al Gore. Of course that experience taught Rove absolutely nothing.
That brings us to more recent times when Karl Rove’s liberal agenda struck again in 2012. Here the severely conservative Romney followed Rove’s compassionate conservative strategy, in so doing he lost what was admittedly a winnable race for the white house.
My how time flies. I remember back when W was reelected. I remember seeing the phrase “Magnificent Bastard” here on this forum over and over again, marveling at the masterful wizardry of Karl Rove and how he engineered W’s reelection.
At the time I thought it amusing, but never said much about it because I’ve never been able to shake my mind’s eye image of Rove as a Little Rascal’s Spanky with a beanie cap and short pants whining about something. This misplaced admiration was proved obviously wrong when he engineered Mitt Romney’s defeat giving Mitt the same advice he gave to W, “Don’t fight back. Don’t answer your detractors. Stay the course and act Presidential” Ha!
I can at take satisfaction in the knowledge that we as a collective group now have a better and more accurate handle on what this weasel really is. :0)
In 100% Agreement about Karl Rove being a jerk. If I truly wanted to say what he was on FR i would than be using profanity!
IMO Rove is behind all the ‘loyalty’ pledge crap...I think the Donald will turn tables on the debate field tomorrow and ask each and every candidate on stage for their ‘full and unbridled support’ when he wins the nomination.
Allen West: Director, CIA Mark Levin: Press Secretary
You may not like his style but you gotta give him a "10" on content.
Wut?
Amen. Rove is the reason a lot of Bush Policies were screwed up. Rove is not our ally, he is our enemy.
And what is Rove's cut of the money raised? 10%? 25%?
It took Trump to state the obvious because he has money and doesn’t need to be PC. A candidate that is dependent on contributions has to watch his tongue and not offend a potential donor.
““He raises money pretty well. The last cycle, the last presidential election, he raised $434 million and didn’t win one race.””
I still can’t figure why anyone would give Karl rove a single penny; he’s a loser.
When Romney was getting called out by the base for being a RINO squish, he angrily retorted that he was ‘severely Conservative’.
You forgot selling the Post Office to FedEx and UPS..
