Whew! Candace Owens Says Donald Trump “Has Been a Chronic Disappointment” in Fiery New Interview
Candace Owens isn’t holding back no more. In a raw and honest moment, the conservative commentator came clean about how she really feels about the man she once campaigned for — Donald Trump.
In a must-see sit-down on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Owens admitted: “He’s been a chronic disappointment. And I feel embarrassed that I told people to go vote for him because this wasn’t going to happen, and it is happening.”
This is a major switch-up for Owens, who went hard for Trump in 2016 and stayed loyal even after he left the White House. But now? She’s waving a big red flag — and it’s not for the MAGA crowd.
From Trump Ride-Or-Die to Calling Out the Real Puppet Master: Israel
Owens made it real clear she ain’t vibing with Trump’s latest moves — especially when it comes to foreign policy. The tipping point for her? Trump’s alignment with Israel in the recent Iran conflict.
Over the weekend, U.S. B-2 bombers dropped heat on three of Iran’s nuclear sites — part of an American strike meant to help Israel slow down Iran’s alleged weapons development. But Owens ain’t buying the narrative.
“This was not Trump’s decision; it was Bibi Netanyahu’s decision,” she told Morgan. “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.”
She didn’t stop there. Owens said the Trump-backed military strikes were unnecessary and reckless. “There was no imminent threat,” she claimed, echoing the same doubts raised by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who insisted Iran wasn’t close to nuclear power status.
Trump Fires Back From Air Force One: “I Think They Were Very Close”
Trump, never one to let criticism slide, responded directly to the claims — especially Gabbard’s take that Iran didn’t pose an immediate nuclear threat.
“I don’t care what she [Gabbard] said. I think they were very close to having one,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One.
So basically, Trump’s still sticking by his decision. But Owens ain’t with it — and her message is crystal clear: She’s done riding for someone who she says let the people down.
The Bigger Picture: Owens’ Disappointment Reflects a Growing Divide
What Owens shared wasn’t just personal — it tapped into a wider frustration among some Black conservatives and right-leaning voices who once gave Trump a shot.
Her disillusionment comes as Trump continues to face heat not just for his policies, but for who he chooses to align himself with — politically and internationally. Owens, who once held massive influence in pulling Black voters into the MAGA orbit, is now distancing herself.
Her words feel like a warning — not just about Trump, but about the danger of placing blind loyalty over real accountability.
