Ana Navarro says Caitlyn Jenner has 'special place in hell' over Trump support amid passport issue
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ‘The View’ co-host Ana Navarro has slammed Caitlyn Jenner after she talked about facing an issue to change her gender on her passport. The commentator also asserted that there is a “special place in hell” for selfish people like her.
Navarro reportedly said, “Caitlyn Jenner? Girl, cry me a river. Let me play my little violin for you. Changing the marker on the passports is an executive order that he signed on day one, so if you think he didn't know what he was doing, if you think he wasn't fulfilling a campaign promise because, as you say, he absolutely exploited this issue to get people to the polls.”
Ana Navarro says Caitlyn Jenner 'only cares about' herself
“I think there's a special place in hell for people who only care about themselves and don't care about the effect on others,” she added.
Navarro’s comment came after the retired Olympian revealed on an episode of Tomi Lahren's podcast that after her passport expired, she got the new one mailed to her by the State Department, but it mentioned her sex as “male”.
The marker was changed as per an executive order signed by President Donald Trump that allows the federal government to recognize only two sexes — male and female.
Caitlyn Jenner claimed she's not blaming Trump for her passport gender marker issue
Despite the controversial mandate and the problem arising from it, Jenner expressed her support for Trump. She even shared that she personally contacted the Republican leader about the issue, but “hasn't heard from him”.
Jenner said, “I was in Mar-a-Lago two months ago, (and) wrote a letter explaining all of this to him, how it’s affecting me and a lot of other people.”
She, however, claimed, “He’s kind of busy right now. My gender marker is not big on the issue, OK? So, I get that, and I’m not blaming him whatsoever. I love the guy, and I love what he’s doing.”
Ana Navarro accuses Caitlyn Jenner of not helping transgender community
But Navarro did not mince her words, thrashing her as she said, “I'm going to quote trans advocate Janetta Johnson, who said this in 2015: 'Jenner is a rich, White b----. She can pay for everything she needs.”
“But I think she now needs to put some of that money back into the transgender community, as she has taken a lot. All these years, we've been abused and battered, yet she's used none of her power to help the community and bring about change,” the 54-year-old added.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin also seemed to agree with Navarro as she called the Trump executive order "stupid policy". She even stated that it “is not an issue that in any way betters the lives of the American people.”
