Caitlyn Jenner spent years championing Donald Trump and his movement, but now she can't leave the country. And the man she backed hasn't responded.
Jenner revealed this week that her passport was returned with a male gender marker after she sent it in for renewal, a direct result of Trump's executive order requiring all federal documents to reflect the biological sex assigned at birth, Entertainment Weekly reported. The change has left the longtime Trump supporter unable to travel internationally, even as her Global Entry, driver's license and pilot's license still reflect her correct gender marker.
The 1976 Olympic decathlon gold medalist told conservative commentator Tomi Lahren she did everything right — submitted proper forms, included a hard copy of her birth certificate — and still got the wrong marker back. She said she has Trump's personal cell number but chose not to use it, instead writing him a letter explaining her situation.
"I haven't heard from him. He's kind of busy right now. My gender marker isn't big on the issue," Jenner said. "I love the guy, and I love what he's doing. But, I'm trying to figure out now what is the next step to try to figure this out."
Not everyone was so diplomatic. Ana Navarro of "The View" torched Jenner on Instagram with a message that left little to the imagination.
"Boo-hoo. Cry me a [expletive] river," Navarro wrote.
