But I can\u2019t see how the conservative policies she is likely to embrace will help Californians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sasha Buchert, co-director of the Transgender Rights Project at the LGBTQ-rights group Lambda Legal, said Jenner should be judged based on the policies being proposed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt matters to us what policies candidates support \u2014 and what their track record might be \u2014 on a full range of issues, not just trans rights and inclusion,\u201d Buchert added. \u201cThat is the lens one should always use in evaluating any candidate, including Caitlyn Jenner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the announcement for governor, Jenner knocked the Democratic Party\u2019s stranglehold on the once Golden State of California.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCalifornia has been my home for nearly 50 years. I came here because I knew that anyone, regardless of their background or station in life, could turn their dreams into reality,\u201d Jenner said. \u201cBut for the past decade, we have seen the glimmer of the Golden State reduced by one-party rule that places politics over progress and special interests over people. Sacramento needs an honest leader with a clear vision.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jenner likewise ripped Gavin Newsom for high taxes and his crippling lockdown of the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTaking on entrenched Sacramento politicians and the special interests that fund them requires a fighter who isn\u2019t afraid to do what is right. I am a proven winner and the only outsider who can put an end to Gavin Newsom\u2019s disastrous time as governor,\u201d said Jenner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSmall businesses have been devastated because of the over-restrictive lockdown. An entire generation of children have lost a year of education and have been prevented from going back to school, participating in activities, or socializing with their friends,\u201d Jenner added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/im-in-caitlyn-jenner-announces-republican-run-for-ca-governor\">\u2018I\u2019m In!\u2019: Caitlyn Jenner Announces Republican Run For CA\u00a0Governor<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
