Republican strategist Karl Rove said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that President Donald Trump will be convinced in the Senate with Republicans voting for impeachment if his defense is there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
Anchor Chris Wallace asked, “Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell says that he is keeping an open mind about the second impeachment trial of Donald Trump, a big difference, sharp difference, from his clear opposition from the very start of the first impeachment trial just a year ago. What do you think, Karl, are the chances that 17 Senate Republicans, and that’s what it would take if all of the Democrats vote for conviction, 17 Senate Republicans would vote to convict Donald Trump and to keep them from running again?”
Rove said, “Normally we say not much chance, but I think Leader McConnell’s statement is a sign that every Republican Senator needs to take this seriously. I think it’s all going to boil down what’s the president’s defense. Rudy Giuliani charted a very bad course for the president in the morning papers when he suggested that the argument was going to be in there couldn’t have been incitement because all the charges of widespread voter fraud are true. Well, those charges and the so-called experts that the campaign has mustered to advocate them have been rejected by over 50 courts with judges appointed by President Trump, President Obama, Present Bush, President Clinton, and I think even one Reagan justice.

President Trump is telling it like it is,,,,,as he has always done.
Good lord
They want him unable to run again
Karl is a never Trumper, pro-Bush Rino.
.....................................
He’s a personification of Al Wilson’s poem, The Snake. Of course there are many such RINOs slithering around with him these days!
I’m sorry but If the senate convicts Trump
He can’t run again
Even after he’s out of office
Which is why Mitch endorsed impeachment
Blackmail.
That’s a great way to show ther was no fraud. Oh yeah.
Rove is a scumbag. His boss got into the White House in a controversial manner. Why does Hannity still have him on? Rove’s GOP is dead.
Rd later.
Who even cares what Karl Rove thinks. Except Chris Wallace.
Xiden, Garp, Donk, Miotch? No, try again. Then beat yourself with a charm stick.
Some people are naturally funny. You try waaaaay too hard.
The courts didn’t reject the evidence
They rejected their standing or simply refused to hear it
The GOPe wants this to go away
FU Tokyo Rove!
Hope you’re not counting Cruz as a Patriot.....
I feel the same way. There shouldn’t be a trial if he is out of office.
I think Rove is a little off base on this one.
Sean Vanity ❤️‘s Rove
And Linda
And Cuban
And especially, he adores Jerry Rivers 😡
The GOPe wants to get rid of President Trump.
He was supposed to be the nominee. The Nominee was supposed to be Jeb Bush. He was supposed to lose to Hillary Clinton.
Hillary Clinton was supposed to be president.
President Trump interrupted their plans.
To get rid of him the Republicans were willing to to destroy the Republican Party, negate the Constitution and end the Constitutional Republic.
Good lord
They want him unable to run again
***************************************
Or for the next four years they want the right distracted by court battles concerning the constitutionality of such an impeachment while the left implements all their diabolical plans.
More reasons I don’t listen to Hannity.
Tokyo Rove is a creation of that genius Hannity. The Architect my Ash.
Porky Pig look alike can ESAD!! Damn Demonrat parading like a Republican......oh wait!
Steve Bannon refers to this kind of tactic as a “struggle session”.
“A struggle session was a form of public humiliation used by the Communist Party of China in the Mao Zedong era to shape public opinion and to humiliate...”
