In a new interview, Caitlyn Jenner is
asked whether she would vote for Hillary Clinton.
The question, posed by DigitalSpy.com,
comes after Jenner criticized Clinton on her reality show, I Am
Cait, now in its second season on E!
While on a bus tour in Iowa with her
friends, Jenner declares that Clinton doesn't care about women and
only cares about herself.
In a more recent episode, Jenner and
her friends meet Clinton at a presidential debate and pose for a
photo.
“I have to admit, I think she's very
good on transgender civil rights,” Jenner says.
When asked whether she would vote for
Clinton, Jenner, a Republican who has previously said that she's
leaning toward Texas Senator Ted Cruz for president, refused to
answer.
“We certainly opened up the political
conversation with this show in the first couple of episodes. We move
off that issue eventually and it is resolved throughout the show –
but the media certainly picked up on that,” Jenner
responded.
“We have the greatest group of girls
in this show and we had so much fun – but I think it's important
that people understand that there are different points of view in
this community, and how can we express those points of view and still
love each other? As the show continues, you see that connection. And
it was quite a ride at first.”
“I was the only Republican on the bus
against all these women that kept firing questions at me and yes, I
certainly did get a little defensive after a while. I was totally
outnumbered and I got too defensive, but that's something you learn.
When you watch the series, you'll see I learn to deal with these
things and I learned a lot,” she added.
Elsewhere in the interview, Jenner
declared that she is “not a spokesman for this community.”
“Everybody in the media puts me in
that position because I'm in the media a lot – but I am only a
spokesman for me and my story. I have so much to learn in this
community. I have so much to learn about trans issues. I have so
much to learn about womanhood. There's a lot for me to learn,”
Jenner said.
