Candace Owens has been under fire as of late and for good reason. When it comes to her talking points, it is very clear that she is a grifter for the Republican party and Conservative viewpoints as a whole. Ever since the murder of George Floyd, Owens has been everywhere in the news and large platforms like GoFundMe are actively trying to get rid of her. At this point, very few support Owens, except for her best MMA friend Colby Covington.
Covington, who had the living daylights knocked out of him by Kamaru Usman at UFC 245, took to Twitter yesterday where he declared Owens the "Ultimate Fact Champion." Of course, if you break down that phrase you get the UFC acronym which is truly a whole new level of corny.
"@realcandaceowens is the Ultimate Fact Champion!!! Facts don’t care about your feelings. I will always stand for the flag and I will always stand by fellow patriots! God Bless Candace Owens and God Bless America," Covington wrote.
Covington is known as the UFC's biggest Trump supporter and when he fought Usman a few months ago, he had Owens right by his side. Clearly, she was anything but a good luck charm.
Regardless, it seems like this MAGA friendship is thriving.
Joey Bada$$ Declares MAGA To Be A "Cult"
Joey Bada$$ is taking a stand against the "Make America Great Again" movement, likening their supporters to maggots.
Joey Bada$$, the mind behind 2017's All Amerikkkan Bada$$, is no stranger to voicing political opinions. And with the United States of America currently in the midst of a societal revolution, with thousands upon thousands of protestors lining the streets to protest systemic racism, police brutality, and more, Joey's politically-themed album rings all the more poignant. Today, the Badmon took to Twitter to make a declaration against the enemy as he sees it, the MAGA supporters and their leader President Donald Trump.

"MAGA is a cult," he declares. "Fully equipped with the God Complexed incompetent leader." He continues, offering a suggestion as to what might be done to stave off the members of said cult. "From now on we are referring to the aforementioned as, MAGATS (pronounced MAGGOTS)," he writes, a post bound to draw the ire of his Trump-supporting followers.
While rappers, with the sole exception of Kanye West, have never had much love for Donald Trump, it appears as if the floodgates have been kicked open and the animosity is free to spread unimpeded. Expect rappers to engage in open confrontation with Trump supporters on their respective Twitter pages, especially as the upcoming election draws closer.
Dennis Rodman Goes After Donald Trump Over MAGA Mantra
Dennis Rodman hasn't been feeling Donald Trump's comments as of late.
Dennis Rodman and Donald Trump are both very controversial figures in their own domains. Of course, Rodman is one of the most colorful characters to ever play in the NBA while Trump is perhaps the most divisive president we have ever seen. Their ideological paths might be completely different but they are both masters when it comes to demanding attention from people.
In light of the recent protests in regards to the police killing of George Floyd, Trump took to Twitter with his "make American great again" slogan. Rodman saw this tweet and immediately clapped back on Twitter saying "MAKE AMERICA SAFE FOR MINORITIES." Rodman's statement certainly rings true especially when you consider what is going on in the country right now.
Fans were quick to note that Rodman has a friendship with North Korean Dictator Kim Jong-Un. Despite this friendship, Rodman's tweet is still extremely valid. Police brutality has become all too common in the United States and it's clear that people of color are scared of the police's large presence in their communities.
With Rodman being seen as an ambassador of sorts, perhaps Trump will actually listen to him and try to invoke some change. At this point, anything is better than nothing at all.
Donald Trump “Despises” His Voters, Says Longtime Friend Howard Stern
Howard Stern says his friend Donald Trump doesn’t even like MAGA voters.
It’s easy to forget President Donald Trump was once a celebrity before his time in office, but his longtime friend and fellow celeb Howard Stern reminded us in his unfiltered remarks about how the President truly feels about MAGA voters on his SiriusXM radio show this week.
Stern and Trump have a relatively close relationship, as Trump attended the radio show host’s wedding back in 2008. Stern had some interesting words to share about Trump and his relationship with his voting base on Tuesday’s episode of The Stern Show.
Stern said on the show, “The oddity in all of this is the people Trump despises most, love him the most,” He continued, “The people who are voting for Trump, for the most part … He wouldn’t even let them in a f*cking hotel. He’d be disgusted by them. Go to Mar-a-Lago, see if there’s any people who look like you. I’m talking to you in the audience.”

Stern, who did not believe Trump was actually going to run for President, says Trump prefers to be around the rich and famous, people like himself.
The show’s host additionally said that Trump should just step down now, declaring it would be “extremely patriotic.”
Stern prefers to maintain a political distance from his friend, even endorsing opposing candidate Hillary Clinton back in 2016.
Kanye West Says MAGA Hat Backlash Reminds Him Of Pre-Fame Days
Kanye West speaks in a new interview on the backlash he’s received for wearing his infamous MAGA hat.
While it’s probably the last thing you’re concerned about right now, Kanye West is getting a few things off chest when it comes to his MAGA hat. The rapper sat down for an interview with WSJ Magazine, where he spoke about the sentiment behind the MAGA hat: “I’m a black guy with a red [MAGA] hat, can you imagine?”
In the interview, Kanye West explains how the backlash surrounding his penchant to wear a MAGA hat recalls his pre-fame, regular “black guy” days. As he told the magazine, “It reminded me of how I felt as a black guy before I was famous, when I would walk in a restaurant and people would look at you like you were going to steal something.” He continued, “‘This is your place, Ye, don’t talk about apparel. This is your place, Ye, you’re black, so you’re a Democrat.'”

He added, “Everything is about putting people in their place. Classism, protectionism—not just racism. Classism is like living on a bookshelf. The more money you have, the higher you go. And you get to the top and look over and what do you see? Fear.”
The 42-year old still is adamant that he does not follow politics, despite his endorsement of Donald Trump. What’s more, their mutual relationship has proved beneficial for us, as it was reportedly West who called on Donald Trump to help out A$AP Rocky when the rapper got locked in Sweden. Apparently, he called Trump’s advisor Jared Kushner and was able to speak directly to the President about the situation within an hour.
We’ll have to wait and see if anything changes Kanye’s stance on Trump once he’s done battling the Coronavirus pandemic.
Donald Trump Shares Larry David Clip Wearing MAGA Hat, Twitter Reacts
Donny thought he really was doing something.
After being acquitted of his impeachment charges last week, Donald Trump has been riding on cloud nine. However, never in the history of the United States of America have we witnessed a Head of State with multiple sexual assault cases and accusations against him and someone who's so easily agitated and reactive to the negative things said about him. On Monday (Feb. 10), Donald Trump posted a clip of Curb Your Enthusiasm where Larry David is spotted wearing the infamous "Make America Great Again" hat, to which he proudly captioned, "TOUGH GUYS FOR TRUMP!" Unfortunately, 45 might have taken the clip out of context which led to the President getting flamed on his favorite social media platform.
During the scene, an inattentive Larry David lazily switches lanes in his BMW i3 accidentally cutting off a biker who hurls a myriad of curses and insults in David's direction. Out of nervousness, the Seinfeld creator scrambled to put on his MAGA hat which neutralizes the conflict causing the biker to calmly state, "Just be more careful next time." Later in the episode, Larry David continues to use the hat as a 'people repellent,' providing the context that Trump supporters are not worth approaching.
With Donald J. Trump being unaware that Larry David and Curb Your Enthusiasm wasn't paying him a compliment with the scene he posted. The masses roasted the leader of the free world with a barrage of Tweets attempting to help him understand he was only dissing himself. Check out some of the Tweets below:
One Tweet, in particular, that has gone viral since Trump's Curb flub. An interview clip of Larry David being asked if he felt like he was alienating Trump supporters on the latest season of his HBO blockbuster show, to which nonchalantly replied:
"Alienate yourselves! Go and alienate! You have my blessing. No, I could give a f*ck."
Obviously, the screenwriting genius isn't a fan of the Trump administration and by now, Donald Trump should be well aware of that. Check out the interview snippet of Larry David taking shots at Trump supporters in the video provided below. And catch new episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm on Sundays at 7:30 P.M. EST on HBO.
