Former George W. Bush White House aide Karl Rove lambasted President Joe Biden during a Thursday evening appearance on Fox News for calling Republican allies of former President Donald Trump “semi-fascist.”
“Well, to think about the people that voted for Donald Trump, 72,216,000, they voted for him because he stood for tax cuts. He worked to make America energy independent. He believed in limited government and had put in place sensible limited regulations,” Rove told Fox News host Jesse Watters. “He had been for a strong national defense, rebuilding our military after 8 years of the Obama-Biden administration. He believed in secure borders and building the wall. He believed in law and order when our cities were in flames and he appointed conservative judges. That’s a semi-fascist philosophy?”
“Joe Biden had his own deplorable moment today when he came out and called the entire MAGA movement fascists,” Watters said prior to Rove’s reaction.
WATCH:
Biden claimed “MAGA Republicans” pushed “semi-fascism” during remarks at a Thursday Democratic National Committee fundraiser held at a Montgomery County, Maryland, public high school. Biden previously has privately expressed the view that he views Trump as a threat to democracy, according to an April 2 report by the New York Times, which noted Biden also expressed a desire for Garland to act more like a prosecutor.
The FBI raided Mar-a-Lago, the Florida estate owned by Trump, on Aug. 8 to execute a search warrant. Many Republicans denounced the raid as an “abuse of power” by the Biden administration.
“He went to Montgomery County, Maryland to a Democratic National Committee fundraiser and basically said everything against what he had said in his inauguration address,” Rove continued. “The pledge he made to unite the country he threw it in the trash bin. Why did he want to do that? He wants to win in this election and is he willing to say and do anything in order to achieve his purpose.”
Trump and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: How is it possible that the greatest and freest nation in world history has so rapidly come under the control of serially lying, deranged, power-mad sociopaths – leaders with nothing but contempt for America, for its history, its Constitution, its Judeo-Christian culture and its people? Orwell’s “1984” points directly to the answer: The elites are changing America’s language itself, so that people’s words – and therefore, their very thoughts – inevitably come under the control of the ruling class. It’s a way of bending reality in real time, so that what is illusion appears to be true, while what is real and true appears to be lies, misinformation, “hate speech,” “conspiracy theories” and “extremism.” This extraordinarily powerful but little-understood weapon of war employed 24/7 by the Marxist left is completely explained, exposed and exploded in the August issue of WND’s acclaimed monthly Whistleblower agazine, “NEWSPEAK 2022: How tyrants and lunatics are enslaving Americans by redefining everything.”
