In an interview with gay glossy The Advocate, Caitlyn Jenner reveals she met Texas Senator Ted Cruz last year and backs his presidential ambitions.
“I like Ted Cruz,” Jenner answered when asked who she supports for the Republican presidential nomination.
“I think he's very conservative and a great constitutionalist and a very articulate man. I haven't endorsed him or anything like that. But I also think he's an evangelical Christian, and probably one of the worst ones when it comes to trans issues.”
After admitting that Democrats are better on transgender issues, Jenner said that she supports Republicans because “if we don't have a country, [then] we don't have trans issues.”
She went on to say that if Cruz won the White House, she could advise him on transgender issues.
“Yes, trans ambassador to the president of the United States,” Jenner said. “So we can say, 'Ted, love what you're doing, but here's what's going on.'”
