'''Karl Christian Rove''' (born December 25, 1950, age {{age|1950|12|25}}) is a [[RINO Backer]] known for losing the [[Congress]] to a [[Democrat]] takeover in 2006 and pursuing policies that caused the [[Republican Party]] to suffer landslide defeats in the 2008 elections. Rove has enriched himself while interfering, sometimes in unfair or [[liberal]] ways, with [[conservative]]s who try to help the country. [[Trump]] has repeatedly observed that Rove is a "loser",<ref>https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/loser-trump-rages-karl-rove-000530848.html</ref> while [[globalist]] ''[[Fox News]] has long promoted Rove like other [[RINO]]s.

Defeated by [[Ken Paxton]] when he won the primary and general election for [[Texas]] Attorney General, Karl Rove was apparently part of the cabal behind an ambush [[Paxton Impeachment|sham impeachment]] of Paxton merely a few days before the end of the legislative session in May 2023. Rove immediately published a one-sided article in the ''[[Wall Street Journal]]'' praising this (sham) impeachment, while including insider details not widely known. But [[conservative]]s rallied behind Paxton, and he won acquittal by a landslide in the Texas Senate on September 16, 2023, in a repudiation of the power and credibility of Karl Rove and his group. On December 6, 2024, Rove's lackey on the failed impeachment, Texas House Speaker [[Dade Phelan]], withdrew from the race for reelection as Speaker in further illustration of Rove's declining influence.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/border/2024/12/06/dade-phelan-withdraws-from-bid-to-remain-texas-house-speaker/</ref>

Perhaps to cater to [[Liberalism|socially liberal]] donors to his [[Super PAC]], in August 2012 Rove made vicious remarks against [[conservative]] [[Todd Akin]] in an unsuccessful attempt to force him to give up his nomination for the [[U.S. Senate]]. Furthering Rove's downward spiral, less than 2% of candidates backed by Rove's Super PACs succeeded in the 2012 General Election.<ref>http://reporting.sunlightfoundation.com/2012/return_on_investment/</ref> Since leaving the White House in 2007, Rove has worked as a political analyst and contributor for [[Fox News]], ''[[Newsweek]]'' and ''[[The Wall Street Journal]]''. Rove is part of the [[Establishment]] as a crony of [[George W. Bush]].

In March 2022, Rove pathetically criticized a charismatic, [[conservative populism|conservative populist]] freshman congressman, Rep. [[Madison Cawthorn]] (R-NC), for Cawthorn's criticism of the regime in [[Ukraine]].<ref>https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/maddow-blog-after-condemning-ukraine-madison-cawthorn-faces-gop-pushback/ar-AAUWd5i</ref> Cawthorn seemed unfazed by Rove's attack, but [[globalist]]s (and perhaps Rove) engineered a primary defeat of Cawthorn.

Rove was outspokenly critical of a [[pro-life]] law in [[Texas]].<ref>https://www.texastribune.org/2022/09/24/robert-gibbs-karl-rove-texas-tribune-festival/</ref> Rove sided with [[Planned Parenthood]] when [[Komen for the Cure]] temporarily stopped funding it, according to Karen Handel, who was an executive at Komen for the Cure at the time.<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/election-2012/wp/2012/09/11/rove-told-komen-back-off-planned-parenthood/</ref>

[[Conservative]] columnist [[Robert Novak]] famously observed that Rove had become "part of the problem" as he was hurting the Republican Party towards the end of the [[George W. Bush Administration]].

By 2012, Rove had reinvented himself with funding by [[Las Vegas]] casino billionaires for Rove's [[Super PAC]], [[American Crossroads]], and its sister Super PAC, "American Crossroads GPS". Rove married for the third time and was flown on his honeymoon in a private jet owned by a [[Las Vegas]] casino mogul. This resulted in his being satirized by [[Stephen Colbert]] as "Ham Rove" the political consultant to the Colbert SuperPAC.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://thecolbertreport.cc.com/videos/clpvpj/colbert-super-pac---the-ham-rove-memorial-fund|title=The Colbert Report|date=December 13, 2012|accessdate=January 8, 2015}}</ref>

[[Liberal]] ''[[Newsweek]]'', the ''[[Wall Street Journal]]'', and [[Fox News Channel|Fox News]] promote Rove heavily, although it is unclear whether his political advice and the ads run by his [[American Crossroads]] had any positive effect. In the 2012 presidential election cycle, American Crossroads "spent $325 million on a disappointing 2012 presidential election."<ref>https://www.politico.com/story/2015/05/jeb-bush-vs-karl-rove-george-117835</ref>
