A right-wing commentator's public split with Trump is framed as proof his second term is more corrupt and hawkish than his first.

• Candace Owens says Trump "got played" and no longer considers herself a Republican, breaking with him on a popular podcast.
• The core charge: Trump took over $300 million from the pro-Israel Adelson family and now serves their agenda, including a push to annex the West Bank.
• Sheldon Adelson's fortune came from Macau casinos and drew past US investigations into money laundering and organized-crime ties.
• The bigger claim is that legalized big-money donations let donors buy US foreign policy, with both Trump and Biden shown as beholden to pro-Israel money.
• The shift matters because right-wing figures like Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Megyn Kelly are now attacking Trump harder than Democrats do.

Outlook: Expect more high-profile conservatives to keep breaking with Trump, deepening the split inside his own base.
