Conservative commentator Candace Owens has complained about fictional character Minnie Mouse wearing a suit.

Speaking about news that a performer in a Minnie Mouse costume in March at Disneyland Paris will wear a suit designed by Stella McCartney to mark the park’s 30th anniversary and in recognition of Women’s History Month, the pundit fumed that this would "destroy fabrics of our society", and claimed those responsible were "bored".

She said:

“They’re taking all of these things that nobody was offended by, and feel they have to get rid of them and destroy them,”

“Because they are bored, they are absolutely bored, they are trying to destroy fabrics of our society, pretending that there’s issues. This is so everybody looks over here, look at Minnie Mouse, don’t look at inflation.
