Now, this is a battle that we would all love to see. Candace Owens and Tomi Lahren are mostly aligned to the same cause. Their conservative views usually fall into the same category, and their enemies, and their supporters, are usually one in the same. Except for one man... Kanye West.
Lahren, who is despised by almost the entire hip-hop community for her ignorance towards the culture, took to Twitter to take a shot at Kanye West. "I think he’s a brilliant businessman. I think it’s a ploy to sell albums. That’s Kanye," Lahren wrote in a tweet that links to a Facebook video with the caption, "This Kanye obsession WILL BACKFIRE. I’m not drinking the Kanye-Aid. Hard. Pass."
"I would call out @tomilahren for hating on Kanye, but she blocked me," responded Owens on Twitter, stirring up some controversy. "Let’s agree to disagree. I respect your opinion and agree with most of what you say. We differ on this. That’s fine," replied Lahren, but Owens wasn't having it.
"Let’s not. You and I both know what this is actually about. I’ve remained silent on it to spare you the embarrassment but you’re testing my patience," snapped Owens, referencing the fact that Lahren may not like West based on his skin color or profession, or both (why Lahren use Kool-Aid to refer to West?)
"I will not jump on the Kanye-obsessed bandwagon. If that makes me unpopular this week, so be it. America First isn’t about the whims of celebs, it’s about the average American & message. Some unhinged nonsense about liposuction & opioids doesn’t sound like MAGA, it sounds crazy," ranted Lahren, but Owens once again defended Kanye.
"1) Kanye put me in touch with other rappers and culture influencers to begin having discussions about bridging the gap. 2) Trump support from black males doubled over this past week. Anyone fighting this is not about America first," replied Owens.
It looks like Kanye is making the media's top conservatives draw lines in the sand against each other.
