Rove on Trump economy boasts: ‘Making the same mistake Joe Biden made’

Karl Rove warns lower-income households face higher inflation costs and blue-collar job losses despite President Trump's claims of an economic miracle.

  • On Sunday, Karl Rove scolded President Donald Trump on Fox News Sunday after host Shannon Bream turned to him, following Trump’s Friday op‑ed in the Wall Street Journal.
  • Facing job losses and rising costs, last year the U.S. lost 70,000 manufacturing jobs and 145,000 blue‑collar jobs while Americans struggled with inflation and tariffs.
  • Rove pointed to record-low blue‑collar consumer confidence since 1976 and the top 20 percent of Americans accounting for 75 percent of GDP, illustrating economic inequality.
  • Rove warned that Trump is 'making the same mistake Joe Biden made' and criticized the line `the economy is great.`, saying that sentiment clashes with voters' experience.
  • Trump credited tariffs with wide‑ranging effects, saying they stopped potential wars and made the U.S. the 'HOTTEST' country, while a deck from Washington consultant Bruce Millman added analysis.
