Karl Rove Says Marjorie Taylor Greene Shouldn’t Be on Education Committee: ‘If You Believe That the Jews Control a Space Laser…’
Karl Rove said Tuesday night that Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has been under intense criticism for past conspiratorial comments and other stunning remarks, is a problem for the Republican party.
Trey Gowdy — guest-hosting Fox News Primetime — asked Rove what advice he would give Republicans heading into the 2022 midterms and beyond.
Rove said in addition to opposing Biden administration policies, the GOP needs to “figure out what we are for.”
He called for the GOP to focus more on getting out the vote and putting a greater emphasis on diversity.
Gowdy then brought up Greene — who is meeting tonight with Kevin McCarthy — and asked how the GOP can keep a big tent party while keeping “the fringes kind of out of the main dining area.”
Rove gave a pretty direct response:
“If you believe that the Jews control a space laser that starts fires in northern California and that there’s some unnamed high-ranking government official who’s got a heretofore unknown security classification called Q, and all the nutty things that flow with that, you should be taken off the prestigious House Education and Labor Committee and be confined to the dark recesses of the furthest building away from the House floor, and then let the voters decide in the next election. She is a problem for our party.”
