Candace Owens Withdraws Support From Donald Trump Following Midterm Elections: He Needs To Read The Room Accurately

Republican enthusiast Candace Owens is over her former fav Donald Trump.

During a recent segment of her talk series, the political commentator called out the 45th president for being “paranoid” and revealed he’s not her current choice for the 2024 presidential election. Candace Owens, 33, reflected on the matter and shared her most recent not-so-pleasant interaction with the ex-political leader.

Explaining how a “clickbait” headline resulted in the two falling out, she stated:

“The Daily Beast ran a headline…the headline said ‘Candace Owens says Trump is pro vax because he’s too old to understand the internet’,”

She continued:

“I never once called Trump too old, I never once said that Trump could not understand the internet, and yet somehow he got that information and believed it to be true.”

Following the Covid epidemic, Trump rallied support for the vaccines, which Owens and many other republicans disapproved of. Owens later interviewed Trump and they publicly butted heads, with the then-president adamant about the vaccine’s success. Subsequently, Owens claimed Trump was “out of touch” with his audience, adding “conservatives should go easy on [him] because he is too old to do independent research.”

After the interview, Owens revealed mutual friends informed her that Trump was being goaded into being angry with her, which seemingly worked. The Connecticut native said Trump was “quite rude” to her when she finally saw him in person again.

It seems the incident ultimately made Owens question her loyalty to someone who could be so easily manipulated. According to Owens, the trauma of the 2020 election has left Trump paranoid and “‘almost likely to believe that everybody’s trying to turn their back on him and stab him in the back.”

Owens stated that while she’s not convinced Trump won’t win the 2024 election, she thinks he needs to do some hard self-reflection.

“I am not under any impression that Trump can’t win in 2024. What I am saying is that Trump needs to take a good look in the mirror and a good look in the room and he needs to read the room accurately…..He needs to exercise a tiny bit more humility when he gets something wrong. Trump is not perfect, I am not perfect.”

After the segment aired, Owens revealed she’s currently backing Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake and Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie. The republican commentator has also been quite cozy with 2020 presidential candidate Kanye West. West has recently insinuated he may be gearing up for a 2024 bid. However, the musician’s ongoing recent controversies will likely make for a highly difficult path to the presidency.
