Candace Owens calls TI ‘garbage’ and says he’s more conservative than he wants people to know

Candace Owens has no respect for TI 4 years after her polarizing support for immigration policy and Republican politicians pitted the 2 public figures against one another on the REVOLT summit in Los Angeles. The moment occurred during a heated panel featuring Killer Mike, Steven Pargett, Katrina Peterson and activist Tamika D. Mallory.

In a recent appearance on “The Breakfast Club,” the political commentator returned to his tense verbal volley. She began, “I feel TI is a garbage man, you know, I’ll say it a thousand times; because to begin with I talked to TI before this event. TI was the one person on that scene I actually knew. Owens mentioned that Kanye West introduced her to each Charlamagne Tha God and T.I.

She sat next to the “Whatever You Like” rapper in the course of the “Trap the Vote: Hip Hop & Politics” discussion. When she talked about various pieces of laws that make it harder for black families to thrive, statistics on the consequences of a black fatherless home, and more, she was met with nods.

But when she took the chance to defend her support for then-President Donald Trump within the face of backlash over his failed stance to condemn white supremacy, TI bulldozed her, cutting off any probability for a response. When she spoke, her comments condemning hatred of the MAGA movement as rooted in error further ignited the viral exchange. Owens told “The Breakfast Club” that the exchange got here out of left field.

“We talked and I know that TI thinks more conservatively. So he was literally putting on a show. So it just baffles me, especially considering all the things that have come to light in the trial of Diddy controlling TI,” she said.

The anti-feminist further explained: “Because it was wild. He literally made a show like he didn’t know me on stage, like he was surprised that I used to be saying such things. When we talked on the phone, he was much more level-headed and rational. And I just, I still look back on that moment and wonder, what was he doing? Up there it was like a circus show. And he did something that I assumed was counterproductive because I assumed we were having an incredible discussion.

Owens’ many conservative views made her anathema to many within the black community. Even her marriage to British businessman George Farmer was a degree of contention for her critics. During the identical interview with Charlamagne and DJ Envy, she addressed comments criticizing her interracial relationship.

“I personally never considered my husband as a race. It’s very interesting to me that people say, “She’s married to a white man.” I have a look at my kids and I do not say, “Oh, my kids are mixed.” “I married the person who made the most sense,” said the creator of “Blackout: How Black Americans Can Make Their Second Escape from the Democratic Party.” He claims that the alternative of a wedding partner was based on their mental compatibility.

“I only fell in love with my husband because I think he’s one of the most brilliant people in the world, you know,” she says added. Her comments about people marrying a partner with the same IQ were seen by some as an insinuation that black men were intellectually beneath her. Owens and Farmer have been married since 2019 and have three children.

After weeks of backlash for talking about anti-Semitic conspiracy theories on her show, the Daily Wire, it was confirmed that she had parted ways with the network. The March 22 announcement marked the top of the three-year partnership.
