Why would Trump want any help from Loser Rove?
Rove’s record. 2-1-5
Lost in 2000 saved by the electoral college
Win in 2002 due to the Democrats incompetence in responding to 09-11 attacks
Skin of the teeth win in 2004
Lost in 2006, 2008 and 2010
Ran over by the Tea Party in 2010 and 2014 despite his best efforts to sabotage them.
Since when? Rush has NOT been a Bush fan. Maybe GW back around the time of 9/11, but not much since.
When Bush drops out, if he then makes a statement that he will not support or endorse Trump, then Trump needs to bring the temple down on the heads of the GOP elite.
I would like to see him buy a 30 minute slot on network television and explain how at the beginning of the summer, the elite members of the Republican party demanded that Trump support the eventual nominee by taking a pledge.
Explain how Jeb Bush took the same pledge, but now that the candidate supported by the party elite was defeated in his candidacy, the pledge somehow doesn’t apply.
Then tell about how Dede Scozzafava, who had been nominated without a vote by the Republican party for a special election, dropped out of the race when it became clear that Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman had taken the lead in the polls and threw her support behind Democrat Bill Owens.
Tell about how the Republican Senatorial Campaign refused to help Joe Miller, who had won the party’s nomination, against the write-in campaign for Lisa Murkowski, who had lost the nomination to Miller. How Murkowski had to have organized cross-over help from the Democrats to keep her seat.
Tell about how Thad Cochran beat Chris McDaniels in a run-off election because the Republican party openly asked for Democrats to vote for the establishment candidate.
Explain how the Republican party elites want to bully and push people into line, but when their own voters reject their wishes, they take their ball and go home.
If Trump did that, he would devastate the establishment portion of the GOP and empower the grassroots like never before.
Missed debate question to both Kasich and Bush:
You both have stated Donald Trump will not be the nominee.
Yet the majority of Americans have decided Donald Trump is their choice.
What makes you so sure?
Why do you gleefully support cheating America out of their candidate?
Trump in no way wants to be tied to the Bush name. Any of them.
I think Trump is a smart man. I think he understands the idea of fighting to win, and once we choose, we coalesce and support the winner. That’s been our party’s way.
I think having Bush on the team along with the others, esp Carli, Huck, Rubio and Carson is important. I think Trump is already trying to mend some wounds.
In the debate, I thought his comments about CNN starting all the questions to Bush being unfair, was actually a back handed way of Trump standing up for Bush, but Bush decided that it was a good time to launch an attack against Trump.
In short, Bush didn’t realize that Trump was actually criticizing CNN not Bush.
That shows that Bush is not into the game as well as anyone thought, but then again, I wouldn’t vote for Bush at any price in a primary.
I thought Bushes were all about compromise and unifying the party??
They will never ask an honest question like that if it not a direct torpedo hit against Trump.
Trump in no way wants to be tied to the Bush name. Any of them.
Yep...no way he would have invited any of those Bushes to HIS wedding!!!!
Jeb Bush has one vote, just like all the rest of us ( well, except democrats in Chicago and other large cities... they get to vote forever...)
He liked the Bush's, but I wouldn't say he was in the bag. Under Bush43, he opposed "entitlement" expansion when the WH was the only entity looking to do so, including the most of the Dems, and he opposed Bush43's amnesty plan as well.
Yes, he would give half-hearted explanations of the Bush41-Clinton love fests on tv when challenged.
Haven't been a regular listener to Rush since he went "All Iced Tea All The Time", so if he's been praising/defending HEB!, perhaps you're on to something.
Have you seen the winners arn’t losers childrens story from Jimmy Kimmel.

Rove’s face should have been on one of the losers.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe Donald Trump was a private citizen then and not running for political office. You do see the difference in the two positions, do you not?
I have never seen debates occur at this point in time with so many contenders every time. Is there a Jeb Bush affirmative actionmprogram? it seems CNN put the cut off at 3% for debates mainly to keep Jeb in.
I hear senor el Jebbo is threatening to endorse Hillary. I guess all two of his followers would then vote for Madam Benghazi.
Great show.
Being anti-PC is an attractive quality. Going too far with it is a bit risky.
Say it....say it......President Hillary
“When does Karl Rove offer his “services” to Trump?”
He can stop by and pick-up that Doorman application anytime.
Don’t dismiss Jeb so quickly he has a series plan for a hugh comeback!
