'Will end badly for him': Republican Karl Rove says Americans are already tired of Trump

Famed Republican strategist Karl Rove claims that Americans are “already exhausted” of President Donald Trump, less than 100 days into his second term.

Rove argued in an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal that “voters made crystal clear” what they wanted from the new administration — lower prices and a better economy.

Trump promised to reduce inflation, but instead, he started a trade war, Rove stated, noting that many expect prices to rise. He also criticized the administration for supporting new issues not mentioned during the campaign.

“His policies will almost certainly continue to be a mixture of deliberately planned, well-executed ideas and those concocted on the fly,” the former deputy White House chief of staff under President George W. Bush stated. “The former include his undoing of the Biden administration’s excessive regulatory rules and red tape. The latter: the Department of Government Efficiency and removing fluoride from drinking water.”

Not entirely.

He is contractually obligated to complain about regulations, which he did. Failing to complain about the restraints without which American vulture capitalism would devour everything will get you chased out of the Republican Party with torches and pitchforks.

And yes, I NEVER thought I’d want the Rove types to fix something or at least rein it in.
