Karl Rove blasts Trump for pledging to pardon Jan. 6 ‘sons of b**ches’: ‘This is beyond me’

Fox News analyst and former George W. Bush chief strategist Karl Rove ranted recently about former President Donald Trump’s pledge to pardon the January 6 political prisoners if reelected in November.
On Wednesday, MSNBC’s host of “The Beat,” Ari Melber, aired a portion of an interview he conducted with Rove at the Rancho Mirage Writers Festival last month.
The remarks followed a post from Trump on Truth Social in which he stated, “My first acts as your next President will be to Close the Border, DRILL, BABY, DRILL, and Free the January 6 Hostages being wrongfully imprisoned!”
If President Joe Biden and the Democrats want to beat the GOP, Trump included, in November, Rove said, they need to “go hard” on their January 6, 2021, narrative.
“If they were smart, they’d take the January 6th and go hard at it,” Rove told Melber. “And they would say, ‘He wants to pardon these people who attacked our Capitol.””
“I worked in that building as a young man,” he continued. “To me, the Congress of the United States is one of the great examples of the strength of our democracy and a jewel of the Constitution.”
