Immediately after taking the Oath of Office this Wednesday, President Joe Biden delivered an inaugural address to the American people in an attempt to begin healing the unprecedented division.

That division has often been laid at the feet of former President Donald Trump and his allies, whose frequently violent, nationalist rhetoric stoked tensions among Americans which culminated in a deadly assault on the United States Capitol earlier this month.


Biden said in his address:

"Our history has been a constant struggle between the American ideal that we are all created equal and the harsh, ugly reality that racism, nativism, fear, and demonization have long torn us apart."

The speech was hailed by many—like Fox News' Chris Wallace—as a speech that met the solemn moment facing the United States in the wake of a months-long smear campaign against the integrity of America's very democracy.

Longtime GOP strategist Karl Rove, in an interview with Fox News, did not share that opinion.

Watch below.

Rove said:

"The racism thing to me is—I was offended in the speech ... There are people in this country who are racists and nativists but the vast majority of Americans stand together on those issues. [Democrats] say if you are not for me, you are part of the group that's racist and nativist."

Not only does white supremacist terror present a growing threat to the United States, but support for former President Donald Trump showed a strong correlation with white supremacist ideals, and Trump himself appointed at least two known white nationalists—former advisors Stephen Miller and Steve Bannon—to White House positions.

Though Rove dismissed racism and nativism as a minimal threat, these ideals demonstrably became more mainstream under former President Trump, whom Rove supported.

Many of Trump's Twitter critics thought Rove was telling on himself by taking offense to condemnations of racism in the inaugural address.






People didn't hesitate to remind Rove of the role his party played in mobilizing white supremacist terrorism and ideals, even as recently as this month.



Biden has vowed to make strides toward racial equity a key objective of his time in office.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.
