Caitlyn Jenner initially pushed back when a reporter called her a Republican, saying she was 'kind of on the Republican side'
OAKLAND — Reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner portrayed herself as a fiscal conservative and social liberal in a Monday CNN conversation that marked her second national TV interview since she launched her California gubernatorial recall campaign last month.
Jenner supported former President Donald Trump's election in 2016 before criticizing him in 2018 on transgender issues. Despite reports that Trump is considering a 2024 run, Jenner said in the interview that "we're in a post-Trump era." But it took multiple questions for her to say, "No, I believe in the system" when she was asked if she thought President Joe Biden did not win the 2020 election.
As she competes for attention with other Republican candidates — including former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer, businessman John Cox and former Rep. Doug Ose — Jenner has been pressed to provide more details on her policy positions after she declared in late April she will run in the recall against Gov. Gavin Newsom.
Saying she is “for legal immigration," Jenner added she was inspired to run for governor by some of the current upheaval on the border, which she said included “kids in cages.”
