Karl Rove SLAMS Vivek Ramaswamy

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaig...arl-rove-says/
Rove in the op-ed wrote that Ramaswamy is “a performance artist who says outrageous things, smears his opponents and appeals to the dark parts of the American psyche,” citing examples of the Republican contender’s comments on the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and his unverified comments on the Federal Reserve in separate interviews.

“There’s already a GOP candidate who does all those things, and worse. Republicans deserve a choice, not an echo,” he said.

In a comment to The Hill, Ramaswamy responded to the Rove op-ed and said, “Sorry Karl Rove, I’m still not going to invade Iraq again.”

I'm skeptical of Vivek, but I'll say he's gaining all the right enemies.

Here's the thing. Say Trump for whatever reason is not able to run in 2024. They don't want Vivek as the other choice. They would rather have Newsom

The most fascinating thing I'm noticing in our current political times is how many war mongers we have. Like, did we learn nothing from history?

The only headline I'd enjoy reading with "Karl Rove" and "SLAMS" is "Karl Rove SLAMS his car into a freeway divider, is ejected into oncoming traffic"

Karl Rove also thinks Jeb Bush would win in a landslide if he were to enter the race for the GOP nomination.

He is a RINO that is as swampy as they come.

Both Fox and MSNBC/CNN/libcuck media are slamming him.


He must be talking truth that goes against the establishment narrative.

W asked congress to authorize permanent presidential reorganization authority and was denied but a president can declare an "emergency" whenever he wants through executive order. It seems to me that Vivek is just saying what he knows MAGA wants to hear but he has no intention of actually taking action, he thinks if something happens to Trump between now and nomination then he could slide in as the nominee and if Trump is the nominee, he can be a mole in his administration.
I'm not sold on Vivek.

Seems Rove and other GOP are attacking him in contrast to the failed strategy they deployed with DeSantis.

It really looks like they are hedging their strategy in having a replacement candidate to Trump in DeSantis who attacks Trump and is openly supported by never-Trumpers on both sides of the aisle with a replacement candidate to Trump who praises Trump and is not supported by the never-Trumpers on either side of the aisle.



Neither are suitable replacements for Donald Trump.



Vivek Ramaswamy lays out plans to eliminate federal agencies including FBIJuly 20, 2023
Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is laying out plans to shut down a number of federal government agencies if elected, starting with the FBI, Department of Education and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Ramaswamy says his plan does not require rebuilding anything, but rather reorganizing.

“In many cases, these agencies are redundant relative to functions that are already performed elsewhere in the federal government,” Ramaswamy said in an interview with NBC News. “When you have redundancy, that’s actually a formula for corruption, as well as waste, fraud and abuse.”

Ramaswamy’s plan would see money used to run the FBI, for example, be redistributed to the U.S. Secret Service, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.

Ramaswamy says the Presidential Reorganization Act of 1977 provides “an important statutory basis” to go forward with this plan,as it allows him to submit plans to Congress about reorganizing an executive agency.

Eliminating federal agencies has become a recurring talking point in Republican primaries for years — most famously when then-Texas Gov. Rick Perry said in a 2011 GOP debate that he would eliminate three agencies but couldn’t remember one of them.

Karl Rove is still around? At least most of the other Bush Jr. Administration officials knew it was best just to fade into irrelevancy.

Desantis is the rncs pick. He is bought and paid for. He was supposed to be MAGA without the baggage, but he is McConnell and Paul Ryan who takes a tougher stand on wokeism. He is establishment, people caught on and the reps have abandoned him. Vivek emerges as another antiestablishment candidate and all of the right figures are losing their minds. I love it.

I agree with you on DeSantis.

I hope what you say about Vivek is true but I don't know that it is.

You have to understand that people who set up world wide narratives have more than one path to that narrative. The establishment had J6 committee, a "Trump without the baggage candidate" in DeSantis and indictments but that's just after the 2020 election. J6 didn't work, DeSantis didn't work and it looks like indictments aren't going to work either so I expect them to nominate a democrat other than Biden to run against Trump if Vivek can't take Trump's place, if Vivek does replace Trump then I expect him to run against Biden and win in a landslide.
