- Rove said he was nervous because the convention’s theme could shape only 56 days, rather than four or five months.
- Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz rejected Rove’s assessment; other MAGA supporters called the strategist irrelevant, outdated, or a failure.
- The heavily promoted convention is scheduled to begin Wednesday at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.
- Midterm party conventions are unusual; Rove said Democrats abandoned such events after determining they had little effect.
"The White House is pushing a big bet," Rove said. "It’s like we’re at the table; they’re pushing all the chips in, saying if we make this about Donald Trump and if we make this about Donald Trump’s record and put him at the center of this, then we have a shot to pull this thing off."— Rove said on Fox News, commenting on the Trump-a-Palooza convention and the White House strategy.
