Karl Rove to Newsmax: Trump Needs to Quit Calling Foes 'Clowns and Morons'
Newsmax ^ | 11/25/15 | Bill Hoffmann

Posted on 11/28/2015 9:03:48 AM PST by jimbo123

Karl Rove says Donald Trump may very well win the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.

But the influential GOP consultant and policy adviser, in an exclusive interview with Newsmax TV, adds the billionaire developer's acidic attacks on his fellow candidates could hurt his chances.

"He's taken the lead - took the lead in July and held it. He's got a chance to win the nomination," Rove said Wednesday on "Newsmax Prime" with J.D. Hayworth.

"His challenge is, he's created a high floor, but a low ceiling. It's sort of hard to grow when you've taken on the habit of excoriating everybody else in the race calling them 'losers' and 'clowns' and 'morons' and personally belittling them."

When I first started listening to Hannity, I got the immediate impression that him and Rice are bosom buddies. Sean Hannity puts Karl Rove on a pedestal. I stopped listening after that.

Let’s declare a month long Rove moratorium on FR. If everyone quits reposting what he says maybe he will go away. Hey I can hope can’t I?

So right, so right.

Funny thing is that Trump remembers and Rove understand that is will not be invited to the GOP money trough if Trump is the nominee. Pig time is over Rove.

Mr. Rove is the poster boy for ‘Clowns and Morons’, a Mainstream Republican band specializing in old flop tunes.

No one with an inkling of a functioning brain, a sense of the real world, and a keen eye & ear on politics, listens to any word that Karl Rove utters!!! He has become the “Dick Morris” & “Debbie Wasserman Schultz” combined, of the 2016 election cycle!!! Both idiots & losers!!! LMAO!!!

I’ve been here a while. I remember people here calling this pig the “Magnificent Bastard” upon engineering the re-election of George W. Bush. I’m kind of ashamed of it all actually. My eyes certainly weren’t open to the deception, money and power-grubbing behind it all.

Neither was I completely aware of W’s total disregard for the economy and his post 9/11 actions in creating the DHS, the TSA and fostering an attitude that allowed the NSA and God knows who else to completely ignore the rights of decent Americans in the conduct of their daily lives. In the end, that ‘regime’ (that includes Rove still today) ushered Obama into the White House on the plushest red carpet one could imagine.

In my advancing years I can only hope the bacon and cholesterol-laden foodstuffs this pig consumes coat his arteries with plaque and grime enough to stroke his pampered ass out for the duration.

Why, iif they are clowns and morons?

Anyone who believes there are “moderate” jihadis in Syria is a moron.

Anyone who believes we should abandon the rule of law is a clown.

That pretty much encompasses all the people Rove backs.

I agree with that.

The truth about them hurts doesn't it? Ol' Tokyo Rove is so 1980's.

You are right. Truth hurts, specially when it is put straight into one's face like Trump does with these idiots.

Getting? Long past that. Guess the truth may have hurt karl’s feelings or offended him or micro-aggressed him. Or something.
