Candace Owens says she’s ’embarrassed’ she supported Trump

Conservative commentator Candace Owens said Tuesday she’s “embarrassed” after campaigning for President Trump during the 2024 presidential election cycle.
“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,” Owens said during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored.
Owens was a staunch supporter of Trump during his first White House bid and spoke highly of the leader after his exit from the Oval.
However, she’s criticized his recent decision to engage in the Israel-Iran conflict. Over the weekend, B2 bombers from the United States struck three of Iran’s nuclear facilities, furthering Israel’s effort to weaken the country’s weapon development.
“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 told Morgan.
Owens said there was “no imminent threat” to the U.S. slamming Trump’s Sunday strikes, while the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, and others have alleged that Iran was nowhere near obtaining nuclear weapon capability, which the president adamantly denied.
“I don’t care what she said. I think they were very close to having one,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One on Tuesday.
