Caitlyn Jenner has said and done no shortage of odious things in defence of the Republican party, but now is an excellent time to remind everyone that her transition is not one of them. In this latest spat, Jenner asserts that Trump would be “good for women and the LGBT community:”
“I’m on the conservative Republican side. I’m not excited with what Obama has done to the economy, to our Constitution, all that kind of stuff. But as far as the transgender community, they’ve actually been very good,” Caitlyn told Stat. “Everybody looks at the Democrats as being better with these issues. But Trump seems to be very much for women. He seems very much behind the LGBT community because of what happened in North Carolina with the bathroom issue. He backed the LGBT community. But in Trump’s case, there’s a lot more unknowns. With Hillary, you pretty much know what you’re gonna get with the LGBT community.”
I’ll make my point short and simple:
I’m not excited with what Obama has done to the economy, to our Constitution, all that kind of stuff.
You’re not excited that Title IX was extended to trans folk? Okay then…
But as far as the transgender community, they’ve actually been very good,
I don’t know what the fuck she’s trying to say, but I’ll assume she needs a citation here. We’re just as battered and homeless as we were before. Maybe she forgot all those interviews with trans folk where we told her she was a privileged, sheltered white girl?
But Trump seems to be very much for women.
Uhh
He seems very much behind the LGBT community because of what happened in North Carolina with the bathroom issue. He backed the LGBT community.
Trump’s case, there’s a lot more unknowns.
And this is an argument IN FAVOUR of Trump?! I don’t know about you but I do not want the world’s largest military-industrial complex to be in the hands of a fucking wildcard!!
With Hillary, you pretty much know what you’re gonna get with the LGBT community.
Unless I’m mistaken, it’s been the Senate and Congress, mostly Republican, antagonizing Queer rights. That’s not on Hillary.
Caitlyn Jenner is still a Republican.

“Willfully ignorant” doesn’t even begin to describe Jenner’s claims. I would also add “blinded by privilege”, and I could probably come up with a few more pretty easily.
