Mark Levin Twitter:
1. I have nothing against Karl Rove. I met him once or twice in passing. But he's a predictable mouthpiece for the GOP establishment and, respectfully, is often wrong in his prognostications.
2. His attack in the WSJ on Trump as the fall guy for Tuesday's disappointing outcome is more of the same. Many of the candidates for whom Rove raised funds and worked with McConnell to promote did quite poorly.
3. And the funds McConnell, et al, spent in Republican primaries smearing MAGA or non-establishment candidates was very destructive. Too many in the establishment put their own lust for power ahead of the best interests of the GOP and, ultimately, the country.
4. As for the quality of candidates, the Democrats nominated some truly horrific candidates who had records of trashing the country, support for releasing criminals, ties with radical leftists, etc. -- that is, their candidates were, in many cases, disasters.
5. Rove, McConnell, the GOP establishment, etc., have a bad habit of attacking the GOP's base. They did the same after the red tsunami in 2010, when the Tea Party delivered over 60 GOP seats to the House.
6. They blamed the Tea Party for choosing poor candidates in the GOP Senate primaries; otherwise, it was contended, the GOP would have picked more Senate seats. Truth be told, this crowd was also anti-Reagan decades ago, and supported Gerald Ford, another electoral disaster.
7. It's time for McConnell and this gang to go. They take credit for raising and spending hundreds of millions of dollars and then blame conservatives (the base) when their efforts fall short. We don't need any lectures from them.

Levin knows.
He’s advocated removing McConnell the entire time.
McConnell and the other bush lites hated the tea party movement when we did have a red wave in 2010, too.
