Everyone’s talking about Caitlyn Jenner’s disastrous appearance on “The View” this morning during which she made all sorts of idiotic and, at times, downright offensive remarks.
During the segment, Jenner trashed Gov. Gavin Newsom’s handling of coronavirus, ranted about immigration, and dodged questions about trans athletes, which she discounted as “a very small issue.”
But the most ridiculous part was probably when she refused to say whether Trump lost the 2020 election. (Spoiler: He did!)
When co-host Joy Behar asked whether she was one of “those Republicans” who still believe #TheBigLie, Jenner refused to answer the question.
“I am not going to get into that,” she said. “That election is over with. I think that Donald Trump did do some good things. What I liked about Donald Trump was that he was a disrupter.”
“But did he win?” Behar interrupted. “Did he win the election?”
To which Jenner continued, “I want to go in and be a thoughtful disrupter in Sacramento. We need to change the system, and I want to change the system for the positive.”
The entire four minute segment was just a mess.
Jenner launched her campaign for California governor in April with the help of Brad Parscale, Trump’s former campaign manager who suffered a nervous breakdown last fall and had to be involuntarily committed to a hospital for a psyche evaluation.
Twitter’s had a lot to say about her appearance on The View…

Since she's on @TheView today, I'll say it again:
Caitlyn Jenner is the Phyllis Schlafly of the trans community, except Schlafly was actually effective. #TheView

Caitlyn Jenner saying LGBTQIA+ rights are a small issue? Trans youth rights are a small issue?

This Caitlyn Jenner interview on #TheView is brutal. Rambling on so much they keep having to cut her off. No talk about her policies, just generic "I want to change things for the positive" talk. Should have ended this after the first commercial break. @TheView

Sara Haines: You’ve gotten some pushback about your stance on trans girls playing sports. What’s your response to that?
Caitlyn Jenner: Immigration is the problem. I’m going to close our southern border and I’ll be the best at it.
Girl….what? #TheView pic.twitter.com/UuDblQ0Dif

#TheView after that Caitlyn Jenner interview, I hope Californians make the right decision. She didnt say "Biden won fair and square". She avoided the question! Don't get complacent cause the state is blue. Remember what trump did? Go out and vote! California deserves better!

If you’re getting your Political News from Twitter you’re in a lot of Trouble!!! Hi-LAR-ious!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cam
Translation: The story is about a Republican making a fool of themselves on Network TV so the right wing troll account tries to deflect and talk about Twitter.
Awwww, we get it precious, it’s a tough job to continually try to distract from Republican incompetence and idiocy.
botolani
Right. One can only get their news from Trump’s blog. Wait…
MissTerri
REEEEE!!
Hdtex
MissTerri = Human GARBAGE.
Fname Optional Lname
Honestly! Caitlyn has about as much appeal right now as a bag of toe nail clippings. Twitter, The View, CBS, BBC, AT&T etc. No matter where she is spotlighted she only exposes how far removed she actually is from 99% of American society.
barryaksarben
you “sigh” you “laugh” you rant but tRUMP IS STILL A LOSER AND kAITLYN IS RIDICULOUS. A disrupter with no actual PLAN to fix something is jut a destroyer. Trump built nothing and during the last election was asked not once but three times what his agenda would be and he had NO answer. He is and always be just a destroyer
mailliw110
I missed you the last few days. It must be hard to get computer time while in the psyche ward.
Nosso Crankee
There’s no mys-te-ry to you at all. You’re a cerebrally stymied, GED-challenged shrill schill…
ShiningSex
Caitlyn is a disgrace to humanity. Get rid of that ignorant fool.
Kangol2
She comes off as buffoonish, and spouts nothing but right-wing claptrap and buzzwords, on top of which she doesn’t seem to understand how either the state of California or the federal government works. She can’t even stand up for trans people, let alone anyone who isn’t a rich, privileged person like herself. She didn’t vote herself and yet lied about not voting in 2020, etc. And then she can’t even admit that Don the Con lost the 2020 election! What a confused mess!
Cam
Under Republicans California ran massive deficits and was broke. Since Democrats won a super-majority and the Governor’s mansion California has run multi-billion dollar surpluses.
This year California ran a nearly $40 billion dollar surplus. Meanwhile, States where Republicans enacted their polices like Kansas and Oklahoma went broke. That’s the dirty little secret Republicans don’t want their voters to know. States run by Democrats have much much much stronger economies.
Polaro
Confusing Americans with facts!
KerryB
As long as it is a republican, HIS name is BRUCE!
Harley
Exactly. Is he a guy with tits or is she a girl with a dick?
glennmcbride
Just because she is a piece of shit and transphobic, doesn’t give you permission to be transphobic and by the way “Harley” she does not have a dick, so don’t be one.
mikhailmaui
GlennMcbride: Normally I would 100% agree with comments such as yours. But, in this case, Caitlyn deserves to be called out, even if it is with transphobic comments. She is anti-trans, so maybe it is a fair question, even if sarcastically asked. I watched the interview and she avoided answering every question put forth. Sadly, she missed her opportunity to be a spokesperson for the LGBTQ community a long time ago because of her wealth and privilege. She has no idea how the common folk live. Her entire “oh lets move because of the homeless in LA” is utter bs. I want to know exactly what her plans are for getting the homeless off the streets. To date she has not given one single policy statement on how she would deal with it. I have trans friends and I would never, ever use the comment chick with dick or a guy with tits, but, in Caitlyn’s case the sarcasm is warranted because you really do wonder what the hell is wrong with her.
Polaro
No, we don’t support trans people if we think we can make fun of their transition because we don’t like them.
D_Bro
As much as I dislike Jenner, there is no reason to be anti-trans. There are good and bad in every community. You can’t support the rights of only the people you approve of.
Mister P
The issue of trans people in sports is a big deal because Republicans keep making it a big deal.
They want to bully anyone they can and right now they feel trans people are the easiest target.
cuteguy
We should all thank this mess called Caitlyn. This narcissist, who happens to be trans, is guaranteeing that Gavin keeps his job. Caitlyn can’t even be successful with a reality show, how is she going to be successful as governor. Bye gurl
Terrycloth
She will do what the republican house tells her. She will follow Trump’s lead. But with a dress…while back on Ellen she said marriage should be between.a man and a woman.dosent think trans men should do women’s sports…instead of re assignment surgery they should have given her a functional brain
BoomerMyles
Hey remember when Caitlin killed a woman with her car?
Small matter just like Catlin’s 6% polling.
Toofie
Right? That should be brought up.
Toofie
Look, she has NO chance of winning anything. Then she can go back to chatting with other rich people from their plane hangers.
humble charlie
He must have also had his brains removed.
What a sadsack! Still with his head up his a$$.
Prax07
Bruce is trash, he needs to be found one day offed in a ditch on the side of the road. It’s where all GOP members/supporters need to be found.
Jack
I can’t find one redeeming quality about her. If I was the reddest Republican QANON Nazi Trump lover on earthy I STILL couldn’t stomach two second of Caitlyn Jenner. Trailer park Kardashian. FLIT. AWAY.
gregr
He’s coming in as a “fresh face”? When she talks, her lower lip hangs down revealing all her lower teeth and gums. So not attractive. She also seems like she’s medicated. Apparently, for most of her life she was a confused person. Just because she has become a woman legally doesn’t make it seem like she’s figured anything out. She’s running for governor because the story of her sex change has run its course. She’s looking for something new so she can be relevant. She couldn’t even give a legitimate answer regarding trans women in sports. Anybody who was born a man has a man’s physique and strength. If he becomes a woman, he still has that physique and strength. It is not fair for these former men to be competing with natural women. Like when Caitlyn plays in the women’s golf tournaments. That’s so not fair to the women in the tournament. Caitlyn doesn’t even use women’s golf clubs. Newsom is facing a recall because the Republicans in California are still butt hurt that Trump lost the 2020 election. Forget it Caitlyn. Nobody wants a Kardashian for governor in California. You are a Republican through and through. The only time you are a “liberal” was when you wanted to become a woman. For everything else, you’re a right wing, stodgy, conservative Republican.
Hdtex
Dude looks like a lady…..with a dick
cynicalsteve
She’s just a dumb republuQunt.
kthcst
I am just a little PEON on the other side of the country…..BUT THIS ONE IS A COMPLETE DISASTER, every single time I see her, i wanna vomit, THEN she opens her mouth, and its even worse…….PLEASE GO AWAY
Paulie P
I hope she does something about that breathing issue…..
DawnTrans
What no one realizes is that she is an emotional masochist and is doing this now because she is no longer being humiliated by the Kardashians for that fulfillment.
Cam
Now THAT is a really interesting take!
Polaro
There is a lot wrong with Caitlyn. I had not thought about this angle, but it makes sense.
Polaro
After Trump I never assume someone is too ridiculous to win. I really need to not think about stuff anymore.
drumstick
“Disrupter” = incompetent. It seems like both intelligence and competence will disqualify you from being a Republican.
Polaro
Yeah, I think the disrupter approach means she will not try to learn about the job before hand and still won’t if she wins. Cringe…if she wins.
Terrycloth
Last night on Jimmy Kimmel he called her Caitlyn Car Crashean …lol
JRamonMc
Let me get this straight, in the last 20 years she hasn’t voted in 2/3’s of the elections she could have but is the best person for the job. Girl you can’t even be bothered to vote! ? Secondly her top priority is to complete the wall. We see how well that wall is working everyday. How about building that wall around yourself and doing the world a favor!
ARTmark
Total attention whore!! KJ just used this opportunity to make a desperate, public campaign speech (because NO ONE in California will take her seriously) and failed miserably. But all Republicans know how to do is deflect, keep talking and not answer questions. She’s got THAT down, but must’ve had the combo penis/soul extraction.
butchqueen
She is a horrible person.
hotflyer99
Bruce will always be Bruce period !!!!
whammykiss
I wonder if there is room for compassion for this person. Her behavior and the obvious dissonance between issues that one would think would be vital to gay/trans people, and her nonsensical, dissociative ramblings point to mental and emotional problems. It’s deranged, but I don’t draw any conclusions about her as a person, as her self identity is so pitifully misguided and seemingly at odds with however she sees herself as a ‘trans’ woman.
Ambonec
Kaitlyn’s a trans quisling
toddlicious
Never trust anyone who only talks w their bottom teeth showing and their eyes closed half the time. She’s a mess.
