Caitlyn Jenner said since President Donald Trump has got into the White House he’s been “extremely disappointing” on LGBTQ issues, but adds that “it’s not over yet.”
“I met with [House Speaker] Paul Ryan. I’ve met with just about everybody [in Washington, D.C.],” the 68-year-old reality star shared with Variety in an article published Tuesday. (RELATED: Caitlyn Jenner Just Answered Whether She’s Considering A ‘Senatorial Run’)

“Publicly, they aren’t supportive of transgender rights,” she added. “I’ve never had anybody not be nice to my face.”
Jenner previously voiced her support for the president and admitted to voting for Trump. But says she hasn’t spoken to him since he was sworn into office.
The “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” star said if she met with him she would tell him to “get over it” when it comes to LGBTQ rights matters.
“Get over it,” Jenner explained. “I honestly don’t know what happened when he got in there. It was extraordinarily disappointing.”
The comments follow Trump’s move to roll back Obama-era transgender bathroom guidelines — which allowed transgender students to use whichever locker rooms and bathrooms matched their gender identities — and the president’s announcement that the “United States Government will not accept or allow transgender individuals” to serve in the military.
“He’s [Trump’s] not been doing a very good job, but it’s not over yet,” the Olympic gold medalist added. A source also shared with the outlet that Jenner hopes to meet up with Trump after the midterms, but away from the cameras.
“Today, I’m very politically involved,” she continued. “Nobody really knows it. I do it very quietly because I have been so criticized by the liberal side of the media. I can get more things done if I don’t stick my nose into everything publicly.”
At one point, she also explained that being a conservative has made her an outcast in Hollywood, where she’s been called out for “not doing enough” to help the transgender community.
“No matter what you say or do, they think you don’t get it because you’re this kind of white, privileged person,” Jenner said. “I haven’t turned my back on anybody.”
