Caitlyn Jenner’s reaction to Trump’s transgender policy marks a major shift from her earlier stance

In the past, Caitlyn Jenner has been very vocal against Donald Trump’s politics. This time, however, her reaction to the latest executive policy the president signed differs from her earlier stance on his approach to transgender rights.

Since Trump took office for his second terms, he signed a plethora of executive orders.

He signed an order concerning the country’s withdrawal of the Paris Agreement and the World Health Organization. Also, he imposed 25 percent import tariffs on Canada and Mexico, directed a review of military readiness and capabilities. He established male and female as the only ‘two genders’ recognized by the US government, and revoked The Equal Employment Opportunity Act, among the rest.

The most recent order he signed bans transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports.

This move also imposes threats of cutting federal funding for schools that allow trans women to compete in female sport categories.

As per the president, this transgender policy would be part of a “sweeping effort to reclaim our culture and our laws.” He added that any school that lets “men take over women’s sports teams or invade your locker rooms” will also be investigated.

“There will be no federal funding. So this will effectively end the attack on female athletes.” he said.

“We will defend the proud tradition of female athletes. From now on, women’s sports will be only for women. The war on women’s sports is over.”

The order was signed on Wednesday at the White House in the presence of female athletes.

Caitlyn Jenner, an Olympic medalist and a transgender woman, took to the social media to comment on Trump’s decision.

To the surprise of many, she supported the signing of the transgender policy.
“Another victory in the fight for protecting women’s sports! President Trump signs an Executive Order keeping biological men out of women’s sports!

“As an Olympian, I will continue to fight this issue, lobbying sport governing body’s all over the world to follow our lead!”

Back in 2018, Jenner penned a column in the Washington Post, writing that she was wrong for supporting Trump as she felt like he was using the trans community as “political pawns.”

A year prior, when Trump overturned guidance allowing transgender students to use school toilets matching their gender identity, Jenner told BBC, “It doesn’t make me regret my vote yet, but it is very disappointing and I have been very verbal about that.”
