Bruce "Caitlyn" Jenner Tells CNN's Audience: I'm Only "Kind of On the Republican Side"

It was stunning for Jenner to tell Fox viewers what they wanted to hear, but it was brave for him to tell CNN viewers what they wanted to hear.

Can we be done with this side-show now?

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 emphasized some standard conservative positions on the economy and blocking illegal entry into the U.S., but eschewed more hardline positions. She initially pushed back when reporter Dana Bash called her a Republican, saying she was "kind of on the Republican side." Jenner is a registered Republican voter in Los Angeles County.

"I don't like labels, you know," Jenner said. "I'm me. OK? This is how I do it. Just because I have conservative economic philosophy, that's the only thing that the Republicans are kind of on that I'm on. But I don't know, maybe you call me a Libertarian, maybe you call me the middle. I really don't know because when it comes to social issues, I'm much more progressive, much more liberal."

BTW, on Hannity's show last week, Jenner also walked back his statement that girls sports should be for girls only. He walked it back into basically offering no opinion on the topic, other than it's complicated.

On CNN, he also revealed he didn't vote for Trump, and suggested that Trump has no political future.

Which is fine, but... why would any Republican vote for this basket case, who frankly seems borderline stupid to boot?

I've learned my lesson from Schwarzenegger. No more liberal stunt candidates. Period.

Meanwhile, Gavin Newsom faces a recall election, and suddenly decides to send out $600 "stimulus checks," aka bribes, to voters, from a "surprise" $75 billion surplus they suddenly discovered.

Allegedly.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said on Monday the state has an unexpected $75 billion budget surplus.

Newsom said he plans on giving the surplus back to residents in the form of stimulus aid and debt relief.

The "Golden State Stimulus" may send $600 checks to middle-income people and $500 checks to families with dependents.
