Karl Rove: Trump Should Be "Worried," He's Peaked
RCP ^ | 2/20/16 | RCP

Posted on 02/21/2016 6:48:13 AM PST by jimbo123

Karl Rove said Donald Trump should be "worried" because he has hit his peak and he is on the decline. Rove points to Trump hitting 38% in the RealClearPolitics average earlier, while the frontrunner is currently only at 34%.

"Remember, he peaks on February 11th at 38% in the RealClearPolitics average. If you took out the undecideds he was at 40 percent. And today he is going to be 34%. He's declining and not rising. If I were him I'd be worried," Rove said Saturday night after the primary was called for Trump.

As someone we know might say: FUKR!

Karl, you might want to go Cuba with Obama, before your GOPE Master thugs start demanding their money back. You have wasted a lot of their money with nothing to show!

And once again, the predictions of the demise of The Donald shall turn out to be strangely premature. Someday, far in the future, The Donald is in fact be on the downside of his career, a most amazing arc through the annals of history, and he may finally be eclipsed.

But not yet. There are still a lot of scenes to be played out, and great arias to be sung, before this theater closes.

In his way, though perhaps not in the same direction, The Donald may well prove to be as pivotal a personality as Teddy Roosevelt, and for much the same reasons. There is widespread mistrust of government, and of the part of the political establishment that has profited from that malfeasance of office. Perhaps there shall always be some kind of malfeasance, but maybe, for a while, a different bunch of rascals can take the reins. And it will take them a while to really become equally as corrupt as what now is going on.

Any male with any sense or experience abstains, out of self-preservation from commenting on a woman’s dress or hair other than a compliment to his wife or gf. That stated, Megyn really needs a serious makeover to undo her makeover. That is just plain awful! She can’t believe that any of us think she can think when she did that to herself.

Looks like the talking point meme for the South Carolina epilogue is: TRUMP PEAKS.
So far I have seen that in at least 5 or 6 stories, with more to come I am sure.
My guess is that by this time tomorrow, at least one pundit will be declaring Kasich the big winner in South Carolina.

Tapper on CNN made a funny last night.

The Dem consultant guy David Axelrod was saying: ‘Somewhere there is a ceiling for Trump.’

Tapper: ‘Yeah, it’s called The Oval Office.’

How many establishment campaigns as Karl Rove driven into the ditch? Too many to count. Hundreds of millions of dollars flushed down the toilet and nothing to show for it.

How does this guy even find a job?

The worried look on Megyn’s face

Face? Sorry, I cannot get past her hair. I really can't. If it were announced she had taken up scarification I would be less surprised.

61% went to Trump, Cruz, and Carson.

Right now it sure does look like Trump is going to get the nomination. I hate to see it. Trump is going to convert the Pub party into a 1950's Rat party. He is not a principled constitutional conservative. He is a big govt pro defense Blue Dog Rat.

I would wish all you Trump supporters well, but why be a hypocrite. If he's got the nomination I'll be sitting it out.

I don’t know about the look on Megyn’s face, but her new hair style looks horrible. Reminds me of kind of “Butch” style.

Because of Trump 23% more voters came out than the previous record turnout in SC. Over 730,000 voted.

Trump won every county but 2.

Trump won 44 out of 50 South Carolina delegates to the convention.

Jeb’s butt was kicked out of the race.

The Governor, the Senators all campaigned for establishment people not Trump, and he still won by double digits. Not bad for a Yankee running his first primary in the deep religious south.

Rove is such a jerk.

Rove is totally worried that his so called brilliant discourse turned out to be crap. Rove is a has been and should just shut up. Fox, the newly liberal network, keeps using this fool.

Trump for President.

Karl still waiting on Romney to win in 2010.

Rubio now running on amnesty and Romneycare

Not exactly a winning formula

Who cares about the money he will get as Trump with stood 180 Million from Jeb Bush and Trump probably can rid Rubio from the race soon.

If Cruz and Trump double team Rubio it's over

Won’t it be a sight to behold, when either Trump or Cruz win the presidency, as the media scramble to remember just what the role of a free media used to be. They will return to being “watchdogs” with a vengeance, after eight years of having their noses up Hussein’s azz.
