Amber Rose has made it clear that she is backing Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential elections later this year.
On an episode of The Right View that was published on Thursday (July 11), the model spoke to host Lara Trump about her firm endorsement of the latter’s father-in-law ahead of Rose’s appearance at the Republican National Convention.

“I was honestly fed up,” she said while explaining why she went public with her support for the businessman-turned-politician. “I’ve been feeling like this for a long time and I was tired of being politically correct, as far as being in the entertainment business.
“For me, Donald Trump is the epitome of an alpha male. He’s there to protect, provide, make sure that the citizens of the U.S. are in a good economy, protecting us. Y’know, I feel protected by Donald Trump — that’s why I wanted to come out and publicly endorse him.”

She later added: “I went down a rabbit hole of right-wing media and I said there’s not a racist bone in his body. I was so wrong. I love the fact that he’s a person; I like that he has typos on Twitter — I appreciate that. Like, he’s a real person; he’s for the people.
“Honestly, I’ve never felt so free, Laura, I feel so free. I lost 260,000 followers when I posted [a picture with Trump], and it was one of the best days of my life. I got to be honest with you — I gained a whole new fanbase, I follow people that are likeminded […] I’m happy that I lost those followers. I basically cleaned house.”
Last month, Rose doubled down on her support for the 78-year-old after he was found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records as part of his hush-money criminal trial.
The firebrand media personality responded to some questions from TMZ in early June and reiterated her position regarding the controversial presidential candidate when asked if his recent conviction impacted her outlook.

“Still voting for Donald Trump,” she said. “I think it helps him more. I think people see the injustice in what happened and they want to vote for him more than ever. We just did our research and we’re not brainwashed anymore by the left — I can say that about myself. All these years, I’ve been brainwashed and I’m not any more.”
The former video vixen was then asked if Trump would approve of her SlutWalk for women’s equality, to which she responded: “I haven’t did the SlutWalk since 2018. I think I could do something better for women than a SlutWalk, although I was very passionate about the SlutWalk.
“I’ve donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to helping women get counseling for domestic violence, sexual assault and rape, and I’m still that person. I just don’t think I need to SlutWalk for that.”
Back in May, she claimed that Americans are being trained by the media to hate the controversial Republican for no logical reason.

In a now-deleted Instagram post, Rose posted a video of Trump claiming that he “doesn’t mind” gay marriage and wrote: “I’ll just leave this here watch till the end… For all the LGBTQ+ people that think after decades of allyship I would ever hate you! [scared face emoji] Stop believing the propaganda. They are brainwashing you. Start having bigger conversations instead of staying on one side of the fence.
“Ur blind over there. I literally grew up in the Philly/NYC ballroom scene. Most of my favorite people in the world are gay and trans. People that truly know me know that! Please do your research and stop just making decisions based off what other people think. Be a free thinker -Muva.”
