Owens: “I spoke out early on against the #MeToo movement because I thought the writing was on the wall”

From the September 18 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends:

BRIAN KILMEADE (CO-HOST): I'm reading The Wall Street journal, and their editorial essentially says this: Republicans will pay the price in the midterms if they don't go to bat for Brett Kavanaugh and if they cave to the accusation from 36 years ago. Do you agree? 

CANDACE OWENS (TURNING POINT USA SPOKESPERSON): I 100 percent agree. I have been very vocal in my support for Brett Kavanaugh. We have reached peak lunacy on the left and this is, by the way, the most disgusting thing that they have done yet, politicizing sexual assault and politicizing rape and this sort of thing. I spoke out early on against the #MeToo movement because I thought the writing was on the wall early on in exactly what they were going to do. Any movement that is rooted in victimization is going to be hijacked and weaponized by the left and that's exactly what we're seeing happen here.

STEVE DOOCY (CO-HOST): Well Candace, what's the matter with what the Democrats want? They are of the opinion that they should wait now that this is come in at the eleventh hour for the FBI to do a thorough investigation. Of course that's going to push the whole work much closer or past the midterms. 

OWENS: And that was their intent from the very beginning. This is just the next logical step in them trying to delay his confirmation and they will do this by any means necessary. I think any person that actually supports sexual assault victims should be speaking out against this because this is absolutely, as I said before, disgusting, despicable behavior and someone should be held accountable for this.
