Candace Owens’ comments on Erika Kirk spark online debate
The controversy started when Owens gave her own interpretation of what she thought she was seeing in Erika Kirk’s signature and behavior changes.
During the segment, Owens said:
"People do not change their signatures. You learn cursive, you practice signing your name, and you just do it without thinking for the rest of your life. You don't change your signature no more than you change your fingerprints, okay? Every descriptive trait of somebody who has dissociative personality disorder matches the experience I am having watching Erika. Seems to be suffering from like an amnesia."
