Andrew Tate, the notorious "manosphere" influencer, is in big trouble. He's charged in Romania with human trafficking and sexual misconduct. But he may also have a powerful ally: President Donald Trump.

Andrew Tate has been platformed and lionized by Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump Jr. Last month, he made a joint appearance with Alina Habba, one of President Trump’s advisers, on Benny Johnson’s popular pro-Trump podcast. Habba lavished praise on Tate, and said he was in legal trouble only because, she told him, “you love what’s right.”
