On Fox News, Owens stated that Baltimore leads in rape, which is not accurate. Owens was chastised on Twitter for propagating the idea of Black males as rapists.

This is just one of many heinous remarks Owens has made.

Candace Owens Attacks Colin Kaepernick’s Racial Identity

I love how @shaunking who is white and @Kaepernick7 who is half-white, have raked in millions by continually telling black people that they are less than white people.

Meanwhile, Owens has enriched herself by being a Black Trump supporter and has a history of making disgusting comments, such as blaming the mail bombs on Democrats and saying Hitler just wanted to “make Germany great again.”
