Donald Trump's poll numbers are good, political analyst Karl Rove conceded Thursday, but he urged viewers to put the numbers into "a little bit of perspective."
"He has been in the race for six weeks,"..."He has had a good move up, a good bump up, but we've seen this before.
"Look, there will be a lot of movement in this race. It is really still early."
And even though Trump is topping the polls as far as Republicans who would support him, his favorability ratings are suffering, Rove said.

However, pointed out Rove, "30 percent of the Republicans say they definitely will not vote for him," marking the highest percentage of voters who said they would not support a candidate.
"In a June 15 Wall Street Journal/NBC poll, 66 percent said they could not vote for him," said Rove. And when it comes to his honesty, 58 percent of those in the Quinnipiac poll said Trump is not trustworthy, he added.
"Trump has a high floor and a low ceiling," Rove said. "He has a lot of enthusiasm going or some enthusiasm going, but he has got a ceiling."

FU K.R.
Karl Who? He defines irrelevancy.
Ohhh ....you made me laugh!
Who comes up with this stuff!
Let’s put Rove’s performance in perspective: LOSER
Maybe Rove can get a job barking for the Yak Woman after the election.
I’ve come to the conclusion that clowns like Rove are moles in the Republican party.
Yeah, like when Romney was leading the field in July 2011 and throughout...

He’s right to some degree, the question being can Trump turn the negatives around. Hilary also has very high negatives but is leading for her nomination with higher (over 50%) numbers than Trump.
Both are underwater on the overall negative/positive view numbers.
The problem is ROVE who will keep trying to prove that Trump can’t get elected, even after Trump gets the nomination. Rove is a scum.
Karl Rove: Let’s Put Trump’s Poll Numbers in ‘Perspective’
How about we put Jeb “Karl’s pool boy” Bush’s poll numbers in perspective. They are dropping like a Rock Rove!
I didn’t hear it but he does have the Capital Hill ‘Insider’ Jamie Dupree. Probably him.
He is certainly shaking up the GOP and exposing their failures. And he has made a lot of people very nervous because he’s brash and a bit of a loose cannon.
Make no mistake about it, the GOP is working hard to un-do his candidacy. They hate him and will use every trick in the book to trip him up. It will be a viscous counter-attack that brings all the money and power the GOP can muster. They want him out of there because the party will have no control over him if he should become president. He refuses to play by their rules.
I hope Trump can withstand the oncoming assault of the GOP’s political operatives, but I doubt it.
Rove’s advice has been destroying the Republican Party. I suggest people stop taking his advice or taking his comments too seriously.
LOL!!!!! Great post. I hadn’t seen that picture before.
BTW, I did donate this go around.
Didn’t Trump already take down Rove once? Ridiculing how much money he spent on the last election and lost. Go Trump!
Its harder to laugh these days but Onyx posted a good one that made my day! :)
I’ve come to see Rove as nothing more than a schooled deceiver. His advice is about the art of manipulation. We need to step away from that and start believing in the system of government the Founders of this Nation set up for us. Let it work. Stop the manipulation.
All of Fox News is working very hard to insure that any candidate who might beat Hillary gets knocked down.
Tokyo Rove is yesterday’s GOPe. He’s worthless.
