Conservative commentator Tomi Lahren and Turning Point USA communications director Candace Owens got into a Twitter dispute Wednesday over the recent “Blexit” T-shirt misunderstanding involving rapper Kanye West.
Lahren spoke out first, indirectly speaking to Owens. “Are you gonna turn on Kanye now? The ship was doomed to sink from the start but hunger for fame & money was placed over the movement. Funny how he was a “free thinker” before and now he’s a ‘traitor’,” Lahren wrote.
Are you gonna turn on Kanye now? The ship was doomed to sink from the start but hunger for fame & money was placed over the movement. Funny how he was a “free thinker” before and now he’s a “traitor.” Sounds a lot like a tactic of the Left. You made your bed, now lie in it.

Owens hit back, claiming both sides of the political aisle are sorry for her failed career.
Tomi,
I think I can speak on behalf of people on both sides of the political aisle and say we are sorry about your failed career.
The desperation to be relevant again by constantly subbing me and/or attacking @kathygriffin weekly—doesn’t bode well for any movement.
Grow up. https://t.co/iILhUQhYko

Owens went on the defensive Wednesday after West rejected claims that he designed or created “Blexit” T-shirts.
She posted a link to a blog post on Twitter, apologizing to West for using his name while introducing the new product line last weekend.
The T-shirts were made to encourage black people to move from the Democratic Party. The word “Blexit” is a play off of the U.K.’s “Brexit” move to leave the European Union.
