Bush's Brain, a.k.a. Turdblossom Karl Rove was invited on this Friday's America Reports on Fox, and was asked about the recent reporting by The Detroit News that there is a recording of Trump "personally pressured two Republican members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers not to sign the certification of the 2020 presidential election," along with RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel telling them not to certify the election and that "We will get you attorneys."

Even Rove was forced to admit that none of this is good news for either of them, and that McDaniel might be "in trouble."

ROVE: I think the former president’s got a problem with this. They had voted to certify the election. He had attempted to force them to change their decision, which they tried to do. I think this is what we would call election interference. And just as he got into trouble in Georgia over a similar act, calling the secretary of state and saying, find me 11,000 some odd more votes.

This is a problem. The president, former president, should not have been doing this. These people are supposedly independent officials who are supposed to certify the election based upon their review of the process and the procedures in place. And he’s attempting to get them to change their opinion after the fact. This is not a good move, if accurate and if this tape is or is is true, The former president’s created another problem for himself.

ROBERTS: Real quick, is this a problem for Ronna McDaniel as well? She’s usually very cautious about things like this.

ROVE: Oh, I think it is. I think the chairwoman is in trouble here because she’s saying to them, if you agree to make it change your decision on certification in Wayne County, we’ll get your lawyers to stand by you. And again, I think that was highly inappropriate.

Don't expect Rove or any of the rest of them to advocate for anything to actually be done about that "problem," or for either of them to be held accountable for their actions.
