10 Black Women Who Have Publicly Supported Donald Trump

Over the years, several Black women have publicly expressed their support for Donald Trump, whether through political endorsement, advocacy, or aligning with his policies. While support for Trump among the Black community has often been a topic of debate due to his stringent political views, discriminatory policies, and well-documented history of racism, these women have made their voices heard, loud and clear.

While baffling, some of these well-known stars believe the controversial Republican has the potential to lead the U.S. toward a future that ensures greater equality and justice for people of color. Others have changed their stance about the divisive political figure over time.

Here’s a look at 10 Black women who have shown support for Donald Trump over the years. 

1. Candace Owens

A prominent conservative commentator and political activist, Candace Owens has been an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump. Known for her criticism of the Black Lives Matter movement and progressive policies, Owens often defends Trump’s policies, particularly on issues related to free speech and economic empowerment.

During a September 2024 interview with The Breakfast Club, Owens expressed her belief that Trump would be a better president for Black Americans, citing his strong economic policies and his direct, no-nonsense approach to speaking honestly with the American public.

“In terms of the better candidate for Black Americans, I asked people the question, how were you living under Trump? The person that they told you was going to put us back into chains, we were all going to be slaves again,” the right-wing podcaster said. “How was the economy under Trump? And how are you doing today?… And everyone knows that they were living better under Trump because he was deregulating the environment.” 

Owens continued, “He is, in my opinion, a better president, because at least he’s telling you the truth and he’s telling you what he actually thinks. You know, one of the things that I hated the most about him, when he first came down…I was like, ‘Oh, he’s way too brash. You know, Obama sounds way more polite,’ but I asked the question, do you want to be politely lied to, or have somebody that’s at least telling you what they think about you in no uncertain terms? So, you know, I like Trump for a ton of reasons, and for me, it was always about the economic arguments and I know he was going to be a better candidate for Black Americans because of that.”
