Candace Owens to MAGA: Trump Thinks You’re ‘Stupid’
Right-wing firebrand Candace Owens flamed Donald Trump’s treatment of his MAGA base, accusing him of thinking they are “stupid” enough to move on from the Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy.
Owens pointed to Trump’s announcement that the U.S. would send weapons to NATO allies to support Ukraine in its war with Russia. The podcaster claimed Trump was “gaslighting the public” by pushing war over future Epstein revelations.
“It seems like you think your base is stupid,” Owens said. “That’s how I feel. I feel like Trump thinks his base is stupid, or, again, because I don’t think he’s pressing send on these messages, the people around him think that Trump is stupid.”
Owens said she believed Trump was surrounded by “Never Trump” people, or conservatives who’ve vowed to never support the president, who had convinced him to prioritize the support for Ukraine over stories dealing with Jeffrey Epstein.
“Operation: Just Give Them More War. Yeah, war as a distraction,” Owens claimed. “Never mind! We can’t talk about Epstein because guys, guess what? Look at this headline: Trump announces an aggressive, or Trump is to announce an aggressive Ukraine weapons plan. Yeah, he already indicated that in that same press conference that there’s just going to be more weapons sent to Ukraine, they’re going to attack Russia.” (Read more from “Candace Owens to MAGA: Trump Thinks You’re ‘Stupid’” HERE)
