Republican Karl Rove says Trump got 'crushed by a woman he called dumb as a rock' during 'train wreck' debate [View all]

Source: The Independent

Karl Rove, the Republican political consultant and deputy chief of staff in the George W Bush administration, has pulled no punches in an op-ed saying that Donald Trump’s debate against Kamala Harris was a “train wreck” for him.

Calling Trump’s debate performance “catastrophic”, he goes as far as to say that he was “crushed by a woman he previously dismissed as ‘dumb as a rock’.”

Writing in The Wall Street Journal, Rove says the former president’s performance was “far worse than anything Team Trump could have imagined” and Trump was “visibly rattled” as Harris “launched rocket after rocket at him.”

Rove notes that according to an analysis by The New York Times, Harris spent 46 percent of her time on the attack, while Trump’s attacks only amounted to 29 percent of his time.
