Candace Owens Defends 50 Cent For Supporting Trump

Candace Owens Backs 50 Cent’s Trump Support: “He’s Smart & You’re Not”

50 cent has been facing heavy criticism on social media, especially amongst Black folks following his declaration of voting for Trump after seeing Joe Biden’s tax plan. Trump team has since been using Fif’s support to fuel their campaign.

Biden’s plan means that those earning over $400,000 will have to fork out more in taxes. The average family who makes less than this amount will not see a change in their taxes.

Amid the backlash, Candace Owens has come out to show support for 50, calling him smart. “I want to just say something to defend 50 Cent because I am just seeing so much ignorance in his comments from the majority of Black people saying they’re done with him and it’s because he’s rich and he’s betrayed them,” she began.

“No, it’s because he’s smart and you’re not, OK?” Owens also added about Fif saying he’ll leave the United States if Biden wins: “Okay, so 50 Cent is saying, ‘I’m not paying these taxes.’ Rich people all over different states that are hiking taxes right now are saying, ‘I’m not paying taxes.’ Now when they say that they’re not bluffing, they’re literally moving, picking up, and leaving the states.”

“So, if you think that you’re going to just tax rich people 90 percent and they’re going to stay in the state, you’re an idiot. Rich people are the ones who can afford to leave the state.” Candace Owens wasn’t quite done. Candace also defended herself and her use of name-calling in her comment section.

“I treat people how they treat me. Enough with the hand-holding,” she continued. “People want to call us Uncle Toms, race-traitors, and sellouts for understanding basic economics. So we call them dumb. Ask questions respectfully, get respectful answers. Call me names, get called names.”
