“She Only Cares About Herself.” Caitlyn Jenner Slams Hillary Clinton
We already know that former Olympian and current transgender reality star Caitlyn Jenner is a supporter of anti-LGBT GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz. Now, thanks to the second-season premiere of I Am Cait, it’s also confirmed that Jenner is no fan of Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.
“If we’re unfortunate enough to get Hillary as our next president, we need her on our side,” Jenner told her friends during an on-air political discussion. “Although she won’t be … she couldn’t care less about women. She only cares about herself.”
Unlike her Republican opponents, Clinton has loudly championed trans rights.
On I Am Cait, Jennifer Finney Boylan, who’s on a road trip with Jenner and other activists to promote trans rights, quizzed Jenner on which Republican would help the cause.
“All of ’em. … None of the Republicans [say], ‘Oh, I hate trans people’ or ‘I hate gays.’ Nothing like that,” Jenner said. “They do more, ‘I want a thriving economy so every trans person has a job.'”
Jenner’s friends, including actress Candis Cayne, appeared visibly flummoxed and annoyed.
Later, Boylan discussed the failure of Houston’s equal rights ordinance, which was billed as the “bathroom bill,” with Republican leaders stoking fears of “men in women’s restrooms.” Jenner again defended Republicans and took umbrage at Boylan’s assertion that the GOP uses anti-LGBT fearmongering to get votes. “I don’t feel like they’re out to get us,” Jenner said. “Every conservative guy out there believes in everybody’s rights.”

March 10, 07:37Ok this is so foolish of Caitlyn… Defending people who say bad things about you in public is the height of silliness.

March 10, 08:07Hmmm…Bruce always kinda struck me as someone who can’t stand the idea of a woman being his President; I wonder if Caitlyn is d same way.

March 10, 11:38Once again, Dumb Cait shows up! Give her a couple of weeks and she’ll recant, waving her gradual learning flag in our faces again.
Aunty abeg, if you know nothing and have nothing important to say, do us a favour and shut up! Its much better to be thought a fool than to always confirm it with your ignorant blatherings. Nonsense and ingredients!

March 10, 18:02This is mighty ironic coming from someone who is herself selfish. I’ve never been a fan of this man/ woman bionic hybrid… I still maintain that she looks botched, and there’s absolutely nothing feminine about her. Her opinion, especially on women’s issues, should never count .
