Caitlyn Jenner Claims Donald Trump Has Set Transgender Community “Back 20 Years” (tr)

Caitlyn Jenner has claimed that Donald Trump has set the transgender community in the U.S. “back 20 years” in an address to the British Parliament.

The I Am Cait star, a registered Republican, urged the UK “not to go down the same road” in her address in the House of Commons. The address was the featured speech at Channel 4’s annual diversity lecture.

Jenner reportedly voted for Trump but subsequently revealed a case of buyer’s remorse after branding his decision to end federal protections allowing transgender students to use bathrooms that correspond with their gender identity a “disaster.”

Introduced by Channel 4 CEO Alex Mahon, Jenner also called London possibly the “most culturally diverse city in the world.”

Jenner, who transitioned in 2015, discussed the first few years of her experience. “When I came out the first year was very good, everything was going along great and then all of a sudden I became this person of privilege. I didn’t ‘get it’ when it came to the trans community, we have a very marginalized community and I didn’t get it and I got so much of this for so long. I will never apologize for everything I’ve been able to do because I’ve worked very hard and I’m not going to apologize for working hard and being successful. But what that does is gives me a sense of privilege but it also gives me a platform.”

“I always suggest to every trans person out there, everybody has a platform that they can utilize to make it just a little bit better for the next generation coming up,” she added.

Jenner’s comments come after the move to feature her in the lecture was criticized by a number of people. RuPaul’s Drag Race star Carmen Carrera said that Jenner’s “number one mission was to be the Mother Theresa of this community”, while transgender comedian Shon Faye said Jenner’s life story is “far removed from what British politicians need to be hearing and considering on this issue”.

I believe that’s part of Marxism 101. The idea is to assault everyone’s idea of normality in order to keep society unbalanced and confused.

Bruce Jenner admitted he voted fro Trump. The gaystapo won’t ever let him forget it, either. He has to say these things to get back in their good graces.

Caitlyn should file a complaint with the Transgender Union.

If Trump had set the transgender community in the U.S. “back 20 years”, we wouldn’t be seeing this post.

President Trump and Secretary Pompeo free our hostages.
President Trump announces a date certain for a historic meeting with Kim.
Our troops capture five top ISIS leaders.

But this loon thinks the President is supposed to be doing something for the trans community instead?

Jenner, like those in self-deception, are in acting roles which requires going against their basic human biology. I believe Caitlyn-Bruce will someday have a deep case of buyer’s remorse for going the transgender route. I will happen when all the drugs and physical changes greet himherit as older age takes its toll. “I was so busy making music that before I knew it the summer was gone.” This is a case of the grasshopper facing the winter of his discontent.

#13: "Speaking of Bruce, where IS he these days?"

Not sure exactly. Part of him is in that can of Alpo on the shelf.

Unfortunate that it’s only 20, but it’s a start.
