Trump bashes George W. Bush, ‘flunky’ Rove over Liz Cheney fundraiser
NY Post ^ | September 22, 2021 10:22pm | Samuel Chamberlain

Former President Donald Trump attacked George W. Bush and his longtime consigliere Karl Rove Wednesday after it emerged the pair would headline a Texas fundraiser for Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) next month.

“RINO former President George ‘Dubya’ Bush and his flunky Karl Rove are endorsing warmongering and very low polling, Liz Cheney,” Trump’s emailed statement began.

The 45th president reiterated earlier statements about the 43rd president being “the one who got us into the quicksand of the Middle East and, after spending trillions of dollars and killing nearly a million people, the Middle East was left in worse shape after 21 years than it was when he started his stupidity.

“It ended with Biden’s most embarrassing in history withdrawal from Afghanistan, a total surrender, leaving $85 Billion dollars [sic] of equipment and many young Warriors lives behind,” Trump continued.

Politico first reported on the Oct. 18 fundraiser in Dallas, which will also feature former Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson and former Bush White House counsel (and ill-fated Supreme Court nominee) Harriet Miers.

Trump then accused Bush of lacking “the courage to give a pardon to his Vice President’s Chief of Staff, Scooter Libby, even though [Dick] Cheney begged for him to do so. He wouldn’t, they didn’t talk for years.”

Libby, who was convicted in 2007 of lying to the FBI and obstruction of justice in connection with the 2003 leak of the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame, was granted a full pardon by Trump in April 2018.

“I didn’t know Scooter, but gave him a full pardon—not at their request, but because he deserved it. He suffered greatly,” said the former president, who added that Dick Cheney had “called to effusively thank me.

“Now he is on the side of his daughter who is so bad for Wyoming and the United States that she is polling at record lows,” Trump concluded.

If The Smirking Chimp had kept his mouth shut like he did during the reign of The Halfrican punk, I wouldn’t have said Mitt about the feckless inbred.

For the few Fox News fans still remaining, you can thank Sean Hannity for resurrecting the career of “The Architect” and keeping him relevant during the Trump years.

The only things the last 5 years have proven is 1) democrats really are communists and barely hiding it now, 2) the last REAL Republican President was Ronald Reagan. Democrats and MSM attacked Trump but he took all of their idiotic questions. I read an article over at HotAir on the double standard being exposed, “No questions from press corps allowed for Biden”, so give that a look. To be fair Joe has dementia and needs lots of naps...and drugs to keep him mobile. Folks need to skip the RNC and donate to candidates on their own but only after vetting them personally.

Yet they all have family members who keep running. Vet your candidates, and remember that they don’t always use those last names (many Bush family members have different last names now).

Rove came to Fox in ‘08. The thing about Fox is they put on all sides. Not just people we like.

Pretty despicable legacy for them all. Will only get worse as time meets truth.

Yup! Hannity just could not pull away from the trough once he was invited to imbibe.

I remember the many “Rove you magnificent bastard posts” right here on FreeRepublic. That was a long time ago.

His mother was a prison guard and his father smelled of elderberries and 99% of the FBI are good people.

That douche is the definition of controlled opposition.

I fart in his general direction.

I thought Rove knew everything. I called him Rovesputin, as he really was the power behind the throne.

What the hell did I know.
I trusted a republican President to do the right thing
That was many innocent years ago
