The GOP IS a Nazi problem

infiltrated

Buddy, you and your ilk welcomed them with open arms.

Karl Rove lamenting that the GOP is too Nazi is nothing short of surreal.

This dirtbag has been a waste of oxygen for decades.

Karl fucking Rove is going to complain about the Nazis in the room?!

KKK has a racism problem.

MAGA is the predictable outcome of the GOP he created. This is HIS fault, among others. This is what HE wanted, wished for, and fought for. Now he's whining because MAGA is losing badly, and a lot of MAGAs are going to be punished, and he's afraid it's going to reach back to him.

after he posted several xenophobic social media posts taking aim at students of color celebrating a college football game

ugh, do I want to know exactly what was too racist for Karl Rove?

[slightly off topic]

One of the best political novels of all time, 'The Fools In Town Are On Our Side,' by Ross Thomas. The basic plot is that a political operator decides that the only way to clean up a small southern city is to "make it so corrupt even the pimps will vote for reform."

We're seeing a pimp vote for reform.

Rove spent decades using unethical campaign strategies, identity politics, dog whistles, and hateful propaganda to bolster the Republican party and win them power through fear and bigotry. Now he is surprised that the nazis want a piece of that. You made your bed and made it nice and comfortable for Nazis, Karl. Now lie in it.

Rove's whole shtick is turning everything one says and does into a performance of some kind, to misdirect one's adversaries. I can't tell you I know what his angle is, what his goal is, but I do feel that listening to him at all is a mistake. The only thing you know for sure is that he is trying to trick you right now.

So, sure, the GOP is where all the neo-Nazis are, today. But why is Rove bringing this up? Why bring it up now, as opposed to at any other moment in the last 10 years? That's where the trick will be.

Oh no, how could it have become a Nazi party, Karl? Who worked to specifically make the GOP open to far right ideology, Karl? Who spent their entire career and influence in the GOP playing to the far right for their votes, Karl?

👨‍🚀🔫 “always has been”

you know what? Fuck Carl "WMD in Iraq" Rove. Who gives a shit what he says.

He's alive?

The last time I saw him he was freaking out because he was sure the numbers for Obama were off. So much so that it seemed he expected different numbers to be "guaranteed". I thought he crawled into a hole after that and died.

I thought Ham Rove WAS a nazi

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature

I recall before the last election, I saw people at a corner on a busy road in Flower Mound, TX. They were there waving trump flags, maga flags , confederate flags, and one nazi flag. There was a lot of honking, I aasume as support. There was probably 10-15 people there. Thats a lot of nazis

When even a republican calls you a bigot, then you know you have problems...

The leopards feast once again!

This choad will prolly vote GOP anyway, not like anyone can check

If Karl rove is saying the GOP has a Nazi problem and it’s going to vote Dem then I think we’re all going to die sooner rather than later. I think this was the seal right after Chaney.

Gonna assume he's trying to give himself space from the cons before things go bad during the midterms to try and save himself, no other idea why he's trying to say this.

America has a GOP problem. Naziism is already included.

Gee Karl, don't you think that maybe you had a little something to do with that?

LOL, yeah. And you coddled those people. They are your base.

It's almost like conservatives ruin everything they touch. Even their own roach motel.

A thief knows a thief, after all.

At this point, I don't know how any vaguely sane person can want to be associated with the modern Republican party.

GOP has lots of problems

Holy shit! Stop the fucking presses!
