Candace Owens Torches Trump: ‘I Feel Embarrassed That I Told People to Go Vote For Him’

Candace Owens hammered President Donald Trump in an interview with Piers Morgan on Tuesday, decrying his handling of the conflict between Israel and Iran and his decision to bomb the latter’s nuclear facilities.

“This is not the candidate that I voted for,” Owens told Morgan in a wide-ranging interview on his YouTube show Piers Morgan Uncensored.

Owens, who has long been a supporter of the president, was one of many of his prominent media supporters that urged Trump to stay out of the conflict. This faction of the MAGA movement noted that Trump campaigned on extracting the United States from foreign conflicts, and clashed with pro-war supporters of the president like Laura Loomer, who recently dubbed Owens, “Tehran Candy.”

“It’s all of the same rhetoric dating back to 9/11. All of the same tactic trying to smear people who are against this war as ‘jihadists,'” Owens told Morgan, arguing that conflict between Israel and Iran was “simply not our business.”

“There was no imminent threat to the United States when Trump made this decision to do what Bibi wanted,” Owens said, referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “This was not Trump’s decision it was Bibi Netanyahu’s decision. And that is the reason that he did it. We’re very aware that Israel is dictating our foreign policy, and we’d now like that to stop.”

Owens, who first voiced opposition to US potential bombing last week, said she now sees her support of Trump in a different light.

“He’s been a chronic disappointment,” said Owens. “And I feel embarrassed that I told people to go vote for him because this wasn’t going to happen and it is happening.”
