Rove Says The GOP Is Being Taken Over By Nazis

Tuesday, September 29, 2026

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. "My party is being infiltrated by people like Bo French," Rove said. "Nick Fuentes goes to Dallas and meets with a bunch of Republican leaders. This guy is a Nazi. We've got all these people getting on their little podcasts and so forth, saying: We're just asking questions about the Jews.'" Rove added that welcoming people such as French and far-right podcaster Fuentes into the Republican Party will hurt conservatives in the long run.

"Woke" Karl Rove?

Who did that?!

"In the last 48 hours, Ted Cruz has reached out to me and says, We're losing,' Ken Paxton has sent me several emails saying, I'm losing, I need your help,'" Rove said.

"Even the Republicans are admitting that they're behind."

""If [U.S. Sen.] John Cornyn were the nominee, this race would be over. But when you've got a guy that has multiple girlfriends and $200,000 worth of improvements in his house from a corrupt business guy whom he does favors," Rove said.

"Can you make this shit up? I mean, really."

Rove's colorful commentary didn't stop there. He also pledged to vote for Democrat Jon Rosenthal in the race for Texas Railroad Commissioner instead of Bo French, whom he described as a "bigot."
