Rove: If Trump Continues to Claim Election Fraud, There Will Be Bipartisan Conviction in the Senate
Breitbart ^ | 17 Jan 2021 | PAM KEY

Posted on 01/17/2021 2:01:13 PM PST by Hojczyk

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. So if it’s the Rudy Giuliani defense,

Yo, Karl...

Impeachment against a former office holder has NO EFFECT.

Are you stupid, or do you simply expect US to be stupid?

The election was stolen, in large part because YOUR GOP could not be bothered to stand up for Americans.

Their efforts to silence him are proof enough that the fraud happened.

If it didn’t, why don’t they just open everything up for a recount and examination of the voting machines?

If it was on the up and up, they could prove it easily.

OK people.

Educate me.

The Constitution has, as a remedy for removal of a sitting president, Impeachment and Conviction.

It does not mention that such an action can be initiated or concluded against a private citizen.

When Donald Trump becomes a private citizen, NO IMPEACHMENT TRIAL CAN OCCUR, NOR CAN CONVICTION FOLLOW.

Educate me, Rove. Educate me, McConnell. Do you see text I did not see?

OR ARE YOU JUST PULLING THIS BULLSHIT OUT OF YOUR ASSES?

I was once on board with the “Rove you magnificent bastard” thing. I have come far in my learning.

Karl Rove was the featured speaker at a meeting of political advisors. He spent the first 20 minutes of his speech speaking badly about Phyllis Schlafly.

He said that she is the big reason why they weren't able to succeed at their agenda.

Her pro-family and pro-life ideals were just too much for the canned ham.

Rove knows Trump won’t back down and is committed to fair elections. The Dems are waving Senate convictions as a defense because they realize Trump is going to stop the steal and they want to falsely characterize his actions as motivated by “fear” of Senate conviction.

79 million votes for POTUS
68 million partly fraudulent votes for Bejing’s pedo.

Rove is Team Soros-Romney

This moron Rove apparently doesn’t care about the president’s own words.....

“I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”

Any mention of BLM’s or Antifa’s roll in the so-called “insurrection” by Rove? I doubt it.

FU Karl Rove and all of the Bush scumbags!

if his defense is there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

Stop parsing words. The only fraud necessary was in about 6 counties where there were enormous irregularities.

Don’t expect a thieving cabal that disregarded the Constitution when it comes to elections to suddenly abide by the Constitution when it comes to “impeachment”.
