Trump urged Candace Owens to drop Macron wife gender claims

Conservative commentator Candace Owens says U.S. President Donald Trump personally called her in February to ask that she stop promoting the claim that French First Lady Brigitte Macron is transgender.

Trump reportedly told Owens that he had met Brigitte in person and she appeared to be a woman, and that the rumours were hurtful, especially given her age.

Despite Trump’s appeal, Owens refused to back down, insisting she was “telling the truth”.

Owens also said she had received information from a source close to the White House who said Macron was “holding up” negotiations to end the Ukraine conflict unless she stopped talking about his wife.

  1. If you watch the first 22 minutes of Candace’s podcast no. 208 you will get the full context of just how far politicians will go to protect their vanity.

  2. Quite a few years ago I came across an article where they developed a kind of an AI scanning program to differentiate between men and women and that one was run on all the top Victoria secret models and other top models of the world and it flagged most of them as male.

    The program was immediately scrapped

    • Another ” french” word for model is ” mannequin”
      Its ethymology is dutch and its translation would be ” a little man”:
      “mannetje” or “manneke”
