Trump criticizes Candace Owens on unsubstantiated claims about Brigitte Macron's gender

They sure made her look ugly on fake Time cover

Trump sharpens public criticism of Candace Owens over Brigitte Macron claims

President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Friday to deliver his most pointed public rebuke yet of commentator Candace Owens, calling her claims about French First Lady Brigitte Macron "despicable" and sharing a mocked-up Time magazine cover labeling Owens "Vile Person of the Year."

The post marks a sharp new chapter in a dispute that has been building for more than a year between the president and the 36-year-old right-wing commentator, one that now runs through a Delaware courtroom, a French presidential family, and a widening fracture on the American right.

Trump did not mince words. In his Truth Social post, as the Daily Mail reported, the president wrote that Owens' "stock, which was never very high, has fallen a long way." He added:

"Her attack on the First Lady of France is despicable. I believe, in this case, without verification, she is an extremely low IQ individual!"

He went further, referring to Owens as "Crazy" and siding explicitly with Brigitte Macron in the ongoing legal fight. Trump wrote that Owens "accuses the Highly Respected First Lady of France of being a man, when she is not, and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit."

Time Magazine to Name Trump 'Person of the Year': Politico

Donald Trump is expected to be named Time magazine's "Person of the Year" and to celebrate the unveiling of the cover, the president-elect will ring the opening bell of the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday morning, Politico reported Wednesday citing three people familiar.

In late November, betting sites had President-elect Donald Trump as the favorite to win Time magazine's Person of the Year.

Nonetheless, it wouldn't be the first time Trump grabbed the accolade. Time made Trump its Person of the Year in 2016 after he defeated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the presidential election. Trump has also appeared on the cover of Time more than 30 times, making him one of the publication's most frequently featured individuals.

If He Wins

Ron DeSantis and the Florida Blueprint

The DeSantis Project

His dominance is hard to overstate. From school-board meetings to the Walt Disney Corp., the shelves of elementary-school libraries to local mask ordinances, everything bears his stamp.

For a typical Republican governor, any of these policies might represent a signature achievement. For DeSantis, they’re the latest line items in an agenda he calls the Florida Blueprint. “We’ve had conservative leadership in Florida for the past 23 years, but we’ve passed more conservative bills in the past two years than the previous 20, and more this year than the past 22,” says GOP state senator Joe Gruters. “It’s a rocket ship, a steam engine.”

DeSantis has transformed the nation’s third most populous state. What was once the butt of jokes about gators and retirees is now the swaggering, Southern-tinged Free State of Florida—where men are men, woke is broke, and business is booming; 1,200 net new residents arrive every day.
