Caitlyn Jenner at Peace With Herself, Disillusioned With Trump

Caitlin Jenner is controversial for many reasons. I do appreciate her realizing her shortcomings and how she is (was) in many ways unrealistic. When I read and see things about Caitlin Jenner, I can’t help but think that she just really isn’t aware or educated on trans issues, which is horrible considering how many people are following her. If she wants to make a difference, she’s going to have to try a lot harder, step up her game, open her eyes, and educate herself more properly. This is on her; it is no one’s responsibility to educate her. It’s really a shame because I do think someone as popular as her could have made a difference and brought light to some serious issues. I had so much hope for her.

This article proves that yet again she literally has no idea what she is doing. Does she not realize all the harm she is causing? When she supported Trump, she took only her feelings into consideration. Please don’t say you support the LGBT community and movement and then go vote for Trump. Your actions are not without consequence. Especially when you publicly endorse a candidate. You were really shocked that he revoked Obama-era guidance on the equal treatment of transgender students? You are plan on going after him? Please just stop and wake up already!

I’ve also been following Gays for Trump in an effort to better understand the “other side/argument.” I just have a really really hard time understanding arguments such as “I am fiscally conservative but socially liberal.” I just don’t believe the two can be separated. I can never and will never vote republican until a Republican recognizes and grants the LGBT community the rights they deserve.
