Caitlyn Jenner said in an editorial published Thursday in the Washington Post that she was wrong about believing in Donald Trump would protect Lgbtq community when he became President, calling her hope in him “misplaced” after reports surfaced last week that his administration is discussing a plan to redefine the definition of gender at the federal level.
“The leader of our nation has shown no regard for an already marginalized and struggling community,” wrote Jenner, who voted for Trump in 2016. “He has ignored our humanity. He has insulted our dignity. He has made trans people into political pawns as he whips up animus against us in an attempt to energize the most right-wing segment of his party, claiming his anti-transgender policies are meant to “protect the country.” This is politics at its worst. It is unacceptable, it is upsetting, and it has deeply, personally hurt me.”
