Donald Trump has won the endorsement of Naomi Wolf, the famous feminist icon, in the latest sign of Trump's unique and growing coalition.
During an interview with War Room host Steve Bannon, Wolf explained her evolution into a Trump supporter, as she praised Trump for building an "inclusive" movement.
In the 1990s, Wolf became famous for writing The Beauty Myth, an influential text in third wave feminism. She worked as a campaign adviser for Bill Clinton and Al Gore.
Wolf credited Trump with building the GOP into the "unity party" by welcoming disillusioned liberals like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard, who have become critics of the Democratic party and its embrace of censorship, lawfare, and war.
“President Trump did something very smart,” Wolf said. “He’s being more inclusive," she added.
While leftists often paint Trump as a racist, Wolf noted that Trump's appeal crosses racial lines. Indeed, polls show Trump's support expanding with blacks and Hispanics.
“He’s speaking out to the concerns of black people, white people, Puerto Rican people, Hispanic people of all kinds, women, men, it doesn’t matter,” Wolf added. “You guys have become the unity party, and he’s leading the unity party, and I would be an idiot if I didn’t recognize that.”
The Democratic party has been playing clean-up this week - the last full week before Election Day - after Joe Biden called millions of Trump supporters "garbage."
Biden's comment undermined Kamala Harris' closing argument that Trump is a dangerous, hateful demagogue.
Wolf explained to Bannon - who spent four months in prison after a conviction by Biden's DOJ for defying the January 6th committee - that she was fooled by the legacy media into believing Trump is a "fascist."
Wolf said she began to change her mind about Trump when she saw him speak "eloquently" about ending war in the Middle East.
“All of my information about him was filtered through legacy media. ‘He’s a fascist. He’s a misogynist. He’s a racist,'” Wolf continued.
“I saw someone who was eloquent, articulate, thoughtful, very funny," she added. "Not every joke he makes I would’ve endorsed. He was talking about — he was serious. He was a serious person talking seriously about peace in the Middle East, about saving lives, innocent lives — Palestinian and Israeli. And, how can that not be good?”
