Amber Rose ignited social media after her speech at the Republican National Convention (RNC) in support of Donald Trump, stating he is "the best chance we have to give our babies a better life." Reactions were divided, with some praising her and others criticizing her endorsement. One user commented, "What a f***ing weird timeline we're in: Amber f***ing Rose is speaking at the RNC." Another user, Gunther Eagleman, tweeted, "Even Amber Rose knows. All the media does is lie about Donald Trump."
Rose, known for her past relationships with Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa, expressed that her perception of Trump changed after doing her own research. She stated, "I realized Donald Trump and his supporters don't care if you're black, white, gay or straight, it's all love." Rose emphasized that she initially believed the media's portrayal of Trump as a racist, but her father challenged her to investigate further. "So to prove my father wrong, I did my research and looked into all things Donald Trump," she said.
Her speech also touched on the backlash she faced from the left and her journey to accepting the "red hat." "I let go of my fear of judgment, of being misunderstood, of getting attacked by the left and I put the red hat on too," Rose said, receiving cheers from the audience.
Critics questioned why Rose, given her involvement in racier business endeavors like OnlyFans, was chosen to speak at the convention. One user remarked, "I'm a little shocked that the supposed 'Party of family values' has her speaking at the Republican National Convention." Another user pointed out Trump's controversial remarks following the Charlottesville demonstration, asking, "When Amber Rose did her research, did she see the Neo Nazis in Charlottesville that Trump said were 'very fine people'?"
Rose concluded her speech by reiterating her belief in Trump's ability to improve American families' lives, stating, "The left told me to hate Trump and even worse, to hate the other side — the people who support him. When you cut through the lies, you realize the truth: American families were better when Donald Trump was president. We were safer, wealthier, and stronger."
