Girl, bye.
Caitlyn Jenner spoke to Stat News about the upcoming presidential election and, once again, defended Donald Trump, saying his record on women’s issues and LGBT issues is superior to Hillary Clinton‘s:
“I’m on the conservative Republican side,” she said when asked about issues facing the transgender community. “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.”
“Everybody looks at the Democrats as being better with these issues,” she added. “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.”
As HuffPo points out, that’s bunch of hooey.
Trump has time and again insulted, belittled, sexualized and stereotyped women. And his record on queer rights, while less well documented, is also abysmal and includes a promise to consider appointing judges to overturn SCOTUS’ marriage equality ruling and a recent meeting with 400 of the country’s most anti-LGBT conservative Christians. And while he originally criticized North Carolina’s anti-queer HB2 law, he shifted his position a day later and said that states should have the right to do what they want.
How WILLFULLY OBTUSE can she be?
Having political differences is one thing, but to sell your community down the river time and time again is simply beyond the pale. It’s time to wash our hands.
