Caitlyn Jenner is speaking out against President Donald Trump’s decision to revoke federal guidelines protecting transgender students in public schools. The trans E! reality star, 67, who backed Trump in the election, published a series of videos and posts on social media on Thursday, February 23, slamming the former Apprentice host for backtracking on the promises he made.
“Well @realDonaldTrump, from one Republican to another, this is a disaster. You made a promise to protect the LGBTQ community. Call me,” Jenner tweeted.
In an Instagram video, the former Olympic athlete, who famously announced she was transitioning from Bruce to Caitlyn during an April 2015 interview with Diane Sawyer, expressed her disappointment in an Instagram video and urged transgender children and teens to not lose hope.
I have a message for the trans kids of America. You are winning. I know it doesn’t feel that way today or every day, but you _ are _ winning. You are going to keep on winning so much you’re going to get sick of winning. Very soon, we'll win full freedom nationwide, and it’s going to happen with bipartisan support. For all our friends out there, If you want to be part of this winning side, you can help by checking out the National Center for Trans Equality and letting Washington hear how you feel loud and clear. (Link in bio!) Now…I also have a message for the bullies. You suck. You’re losers and you’re going to keep on losing. Because you’re weak, you pick on kids or you pick on women or anyone you think is vulnerable. Apparently even becoming the Attorney General isn’t enough to cure some of you of your insecurity. As proof that you can’t stop our progress, the Supreme Court will soon hear an important Title Nine case thanks to the courage of a brave young man named Gavin Grimm. See you in court!

His case against the school board in Gloucester County, Va., is scheduled for oral arguments in Washington on March 28. Laverne Cox also gave the teen a shoutout at the Grammys while introducing Metallica and Lady Gaga’s performance.)
Ariana Grande, Ellen DeGeneres, Brie Larson, Lance Bass, Christina Applegate and many more celebs have also since expressed their disappointment in Trump for revoking the law, which allows transgender students to use the bathroom of their choice.

As previously reported, during his campaign, Trump stated that trans people should be able to use whichever bathroom they felt appropriate, but he changed his opinion after facing backlash from the Republican party. On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer told reporters that Trump believes the transgender protections are a “states’ rights issue and not one for the federal government.”
Former president Barack Obama issued the protection in May 2016, requiring public schools allow transgender students to use bathrooms and locker rooms matching their chosen gender identity. The move came under the federal law, known as Title IX, which bans sex discrimination in education.
You made a promise to protect the LGBTQ community. Call me,” Jenner tweeted.
...
I don’t see how federally mandated bathroom privileges have anything to do with protecting these sick people. Do I need to take a crazy pill in order to understand?
You will notice these stories always leave out this includes School locker rooms and showers.
What a picture!
In my younger days we used to rate girls on the beer bottle theory - how many beers would you have to drink before you’d hit on her.
Pretty safe to say that enough beer hasn’t been brewed in the world to get me near that!
The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one. Far too many others are damaged by the acts of these deranged transgender persons. It is foolhardy to acquiesce to the demands of a tiny few while ignoring the needs of a multitude who would be harmed. Political correctness is ruining society, whereas President Trump is promoting common sense.
1. Suicide Rates Among Transgenders Do Not Decrease thanks to Sex-Change Surgery. The suicide rates among transgenders do not drop after surgery. 41 percent of transgender people attempt suicide sometime in their life; just 4.6 percent of the rest of the population does. The suicide rate among transgender people who say they are never identified as transgender is still 46 percent. 45 percent of transgender people who undergo hormone therapy attempt suicide – higher than the general transgender suicide rate.
“slamming the former Apprentice host”????
This is so disrespectful !!! From now on BHO will be known as “the former community organizer “
This is not about Jenner nor even about trans people (of whom there are a tiny number). This is about the people who will take advantage of the situation to enter women’s restrooms who are NOT TRANSGENDER.
If there are no standards, no accepted norms or protocols, then there is nothing but confusion. And out of confusion people up to no good will move in to take advantage ... of those probably none of them will be transgendered people.
They keep trying to make this about trans people but it is not.
He’s still walking around with a fill package.
So he’s just another mentally sick male cross dresser who likes to wear girls panties.
Even if he gets all that done, he will still be a man; genetics determine sex, not the plumbing. Every cell in your body has the male or female code, nothing can change that—thoughts, hormonal surgery or new plumbing. This is a mental disease.
That’s what I said.
Sorry, Bruce.
Time to put your big boy pants back on Bruce.
LOL! Good one!
I’d love to hear trump say “STH up BRUCE- you are mentally sick- get some help!”
Woman with Weiner alert!!!!
Who?
luckily these preverted freaks have an unusually high rate of suicide.
