It's funny how shit comes full circle in life.
I have been blaring my heretical views about American politics into the cyber wilderness for years on the pages of this shitty little blog, and I have to say that this has to be one of the more cathartic developments that I have witnessed in all my time observing and commenting on US politics:
Link: Karl Rove says Republican Party is being taken over by 'Nazis' - San Antonio Current
"Longtime Republican political operative Karl Rove said his party is being taken over by “Nazis” and railed against the moral failings of U.S. Senate candidate Ken Paxton during a one-on-one interview at the Texas Tribune Festival over the weekend.
The former George W. Bush White House deputy chief of staff’s criticism comes as Republicans grow increasingly concerned they may rack up serious setbacks in the 2026 midterms as Democrats, including state Reps. James Talarico and Gina Hinojosa surge in the polls."
A search of the posts on this shitty little blog will come up with several past posts that excoriate the ol' Texas "Turdblossom."
Turdblossom was President George W. Bush's nickname for Karl Rove who was his close aide and political guru who had helped propel Bush from the Texas governorship into the White House.
It stuns me that we have arrived at the stage where former hardcore conservative operative and right-hand man to former conservative Republican President George W. Bush, Karl Rove, is saying pretty much the same thing that I and many others have been saying for years - that the party of Abraham Lincoln, the party of 'moral values' and 'family values,' the party of mom, apple pie, baseball, and the American flag, has been hijacked by a bunch of people with views that are parallel to the kinds of views that motivated Adolf Hitler's supporters in 1930's Germany.
Considering the views posted here on the pages of this shitty little blog over the past decade or so, it's a bit startling to myself to say what I am going to say next, but this is the reality that is facing this country right now and a lot of Americans are sticking their heads in the sand about it.
I simply would advise to anyone reading this post to take seriously Karl Rove's view of how things have changed within the political party that he has been immersed in for the entirety of his adult life, not the bellyaching of an anonymous, loudmouth, dirty fucking liberal hippie schmuck on the internet like yours truly here, The Gadfly.
Karl Rove has finally seen the light about Drumpf and MAGA. He knows that MAGA is not the 'grass roots,' pro-America political movement it portrays itself to be.
You cannot be pro-America, much less pro-freedom and pro-representative democracy by supporting and enabling a dubiously elected POTUS who violently attempted to overthrow the legitimate results of an American presidential election, who has repeatedly expressed a desire to rule America as it's first dictator, and who as Special Counsel Jack Smith testified UNDER OATH to congress once again this past week, has committed "serious crimes against the United States of America," Smith has adamantly stated that with the evidence his investigation had accumulated, he would prosecute Drumpf again for those crimes.
If Karl Rove sees the remnants of Nazism taking root in his beloved political party and is openly saying so in public, then it's probably a wise idea to listen to him.
