This past week, Donald Trump decided to pick a fight that honestly he has absolutely no hope

Of winning and it all started with

It's news. In fact, it was Fox news contributor slash longtime Republican strategist. Carl Rove. You see Carl Rove pointed out that Donald Trump's 90 minute cease SeaPak speech. Last Sunday was full of nothing. It was just as I had described it, Karl Rove used the same language. Just a recap of Donald Trump's greatest hits. The election was stolen. Democrats are evil, yada yada, yada. The same thing he's been saying for five years that no longer really resonates with people. And it was completely devoid of actual substance or any kind of policy position. Rove pointed that out on Fox news. So later in the week, Donald Trump's still fuming from this sins and official letter to Fox news, demanding that they fire Karl Rove and Trump repeatedly referring to Carl Rove as a loser, a guy that doesn't win

Anything, except of course, you know, the, the campaigns

That he has, one in the past that make most of these democratic strategists look like rookies. I look, I don't want to defend Karl Rove. He is an absolute despicable human being on the same level as the idiotic Koch brothers or brother now, um, he's a horrible human being, but a loser. He is not. Um, as I pointed out a Ray of fire earlier this week to Carl Rove took an absolute bumbling buffoon in George W. Bush

Got him elected twice. That's not an easy feat. And in fact,

When Donald Trump was struggling with his 2020 campaign, who did he call in? He didn't call for Jared Kushner. He didn't call for Brad Parscale.

I said, get me Rove.

But at the point when Carl Rove came in, the damage had been done and the damage was his mishandling of the entire pandemic. There was nothing Rove could have done to fix the damage that Trump had done to himself. But Trump blames Rove among many, many other people for his election law. So he's saying is a loser. Well, Carl Rove, after Trump sent his official letter fires back in a very calm manner with a statement,

And he says I've been called

A lot of things in my CRE uh, career, but never a rhino. I voted for every Republican presidential candidate since I turned 18 and have labored only for GOP Republican candidates. Since then, I have a different recollection of Mr. Trump's views on 5g and our conversation election night. I'll continue to use my whiteboard and voice to call balls

And strikes. Here's why

Donald Trump cannot hope to win this fight against Karl Rove. Carl Rove has been involved in Republican politics since long before Donald Trump ever even thought about entering politics. Carl Rove has been a major player in the Republican party

For over 40 years.

He knows the ins and outs, but more importantly, he knows all the people. He knows all the players. He knows all the donors. Karl Rove himself is the Republican establishment and he knows how to win. And again, to his credit for being a terrible human being, he is good at what he does now, what he does is really horrible, but he's good at being horrible. Trump on the other hand

Sucks. He sucks at politics.

Sure. He managed to do a lot of, uh, you know, dimwits into becoming his cult-like followers and handing over a ton of money. Sure. Wonderful. But you never won the popular vote. You crashed and burned in 2020 every single time you were put up to a political test throughout your administration. You fail.

So

Why are you calling this doodle loser, your, the loser,

And you're not going to win this fight

Because when you take on Karl Rove, you're not just taking on an individual. You're not taking on a 70 year old man. You're taking on the entirety of the Republican establishment. You are taking on all the donors you are taking on all of the major players from the last 40 years. And I know Trump, you think that that is what you want to do, but let me tell you here, bud, you have a horrible track record of winning these fights. Karl Rove on the other hand does not. You want to be the King maker.

Carl Rove is the King maker.

I might want to think twice. And just let this one slide because I can promise you Rove has the full weight of the Republican establishment behind him. And they aren't afraid of

You.
