Karl Rove on NFL Protests: Trump Will Be ‘Walking Away From This a Loser’
Breitbart.com ^ | 24 Sep 2017 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/24/2017 9:57:08 AM PDT by Rockitz

On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” network contributor and Republican strategist Karl Rove discussed President Donald Trump criticism of NFL players for taking a knee during the national anthem at games.

According to Rove, Trump would be “walking away” from this controversy a “loser.”

...

“He could have come away from this the winner,” he continued. “But he is walking away from this a loser in the minds of the American people for exactly the reasons you pointed out. He was against the federal government interfering and telling the Washington Redskins what their name should be. Now he is saying fire those people if they do not stand and respect the flag. He ought to be an aspirational figure. He should not be a condemnatory figure.”

Is this the same guy who said that Trump couldn’t get about 21 percent in the primaries. Then it was that he’d lose the nomination at the convention. Then it was that he’d never win the general.

Actually, having Rove predict Trump losing to the NFL, makes me feel more confident that Trump will win.

Good ole Mike Wallace declaring it a racial issue because it is black players. Therefore, we must submit so as not to be accused of racism.

Most of us thought, along with Trump, that it was an issue of disrespecting the flag and country. Poor dumb us.

Rove is living in a fantasy world and is a proven idiot.

Rove like other gays against Trump, hasn’t been correct with any of his dire predictions against Trump.

He needs to take his little white board and go on sidewalks claiming that, “The world will be ending due to Trump!”, on his little white board.

Old Navy advice for Rove, “Karl, take a long hike off a short pier!”

Rove is an a$$hat, who is almost always wrong. He never got over being “the smartest guy in the room” (lol) during Bush years. He needs to go away, but idiots still hire him somehow.

Where is the contradiction? He is asking for the owners to fire the players, not the government.

If Trump is a loser, America is the loser. Players, do your political positions off the field not on the field. The folks came to see the game. Wake-up.

Rove you stupid moron - it’s one thing for government officials to use the power of the government to force football teams to change their name because it offends certain government officials.

It’s completely another for government officials to condemn football players for being UNAMERICAN.

Proving once again WHY Trump won and your, so-called, strategies destroyed the GOP.

“Journalists” are almost always Democrat opeatives with a byline.

Karl Rove is a progressive with a Republican byline.

Practically everyone here at FR was done with him many years ago..

The establishment consultant class still havent gotten over their 2016 loss. The best Rove could do for W after the Lewinsky scandal was barely get him over the finish line after 100s of millions of dollars spent. Along comes Trump, shuns the consultants, destroys the establishment and wins in a landslide. What are the Gop consultants to do ? Throw pebbles at Trump.

Get off of the NFL drug folks! It’s killing you! (MeneMeneTekelUpharsin)

We need to help rehabilitate folks until the NFL non-patriotic infection is healed!"

The NFL infections are like an addicting combination of the worst African STD's combined with a DC Swamp brain killing meningitis with new infections every weekend and on Thursday night. That doesn’t include the countless hours of re runs each week before and after each game which re infects the NFL victims even on non game days.

Rove’s advice: Hide in a closet somewhere for the next 3.5 years, biting your nails and quivering at every accusation from the left.
