The Cove Trumpettes must be offended:
"On a Fox News panel, GOP strategist and former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove said Trump “ought to disavow” QAnon, which he called “a group of nuts and kooks.”
“They may like him, but they like him because they think he is fighting an incredible war against forces of ‘pedographic’ evil, and it’s just ridiculous,” Rove said, referring to the group's pedophilia conspiracy theory. “Disavow them, get done with it.”
On Thursday, Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the No. 3 Republican in the House and the highest ranking GOP woman in Washington, added her name to the growing chorus of critics.
“QAnon is dangerous lunacy that should have no place in American politics,” Cheney said in a statement.
Trump's embrace comes as the Republican Party has become further entangled with the group.
Before running for office, Georgia Republican congressional candidate Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote dozens of articles published on a now-defunct website that were favorable to the QAnon conspiracy theory, NBC News has found. In the posts, Greene also suggested Hillary Clinton murdered her political enemies and ruminated on whether mass shootings were orchestrated to dismantle the Second Amendment
