Despite former White House chief of staff Karl Rove’s prediction on Fox News on Thursday morning that the Democratic “blue wave” in November may not be as damaging to the Republican Party as has been predicted, the Republican commentator was the target of the president’s ire on Truth Social.

Toward the end of his Fox News segment, Rove off-handedly mentioned, “And remember, this is a contest between two unfavorables. The president’s unfavorability is at 40 percent. The Democratic Party’s unfavorability is below 37. So who’s more- who’s less popular and how’s that going to affect the outcome?”

That appears to have angered Trump, who, as is his custom, aired out his frustrations on Truth Social.

“FoxNews should get rid of sloppy RINO Karl Rove. He’s called ME and MAGA wrong for 11 years now, and he still doesn’t get it, and he never will, because he suffers from a completely inoperable, and totally dysfunctional, case of Trump Derangement Syndrome,” the president snapped.

“Put Karl Rove out to pasture, NOW. He is a LOSER, and he always will be! Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT,” he added.
