Donald Trump unloaded on Karl Rove, then said he could 'make up' with the GOP establishment
Business Insider ^ | 11/11/15 | BRETT LOGIURATO

Donald Trump didn't hold back on Karl Rove.

In the span of 15 minutes, the Republican presidential front-runner referred to Rove as a "total moron" - adding that "you can print that if you want" - and compared him to someone who has worse aim than someone randomly throwing darts.

"A guy like Karl Rove, Karl Rove is Republican establishment. He spent last cycle, $US430 million, and lost every single race," Trump said in an interview with Business Insider last week.

"And I saw the commercials and the things that he was making, they're the worst I've ever seen. I thought they were made by the Democrats. So you have morons - but they have morons like Karl Rove. Look at what happened with [Jeb] Bush. Look at what happened."

-snip-

But Trump also suggested in his interview with Business Insider that if he did, in fact, win the nomination, it would be possible to "make up" with the GOP establishment.

"Maybe. Maybe I will. I can do that too. I can make up with the establishment," Trump said. "Look, the establishment doesn't want me, because I don't need the establishment."

Can we just dispense with this campaign nonsense and inaugurate Trump today?

I think Trump probably sweeps all 50 states, but I’ll be conservative in my prediction that he takes 45 states. :-)

Some how FOX thinks we still listen to Karl Rove, they put him on so often, I have special button on my tv remote that turns away from KR the moment he shows his pig jowls. It’s marked “escape Rove and Geraldo”.

I may be able to help! He's a personal friend of mine....well not really a FRIEND. More like an acquaintance. Well, actually we're not speaking at the moment. But we went to the same high school....

Why was Rove referred to as Turd Blossom? Is this possibly worse than being called a moron?

The RINO establishment is actually our enemy. Therefore it is good for a volunteer to listen to them and try to decipher what is actually being said. Like listening to a pathological liar for months and getting nuggets of truth. I can’t do it. I don’t watch foxnews very much at all anymore.

I did watch Limbaugh being interviewed today.

Had to laugh. “On our side, you got the number-two guy - tried to kill somebody at 14,” Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said recently, referring to a story from Carson’s memoir, “Gifted Hands,” that recounted a youthful violent streak. “And the number-one guy is high energy and crazy as hell. How am I losing to these people?”

How? Because these people are known and liked by the general public (few people on the street know you, Graham). #1 is tough. #2 is calm. #1 wins because although the stressed people were impressed with calm, they know they need someone who is tough.
