Donald Trump-supporting former Olympic athlete Caitlyn Jenner is on the receiving end of a barrage of anti-transgender outrage from the right, after she dared to agree with the former president that a certain culture war should end, reported The Daily Beast.
Bud Light, along with its parent company Anheuser-Busch, has been subject to rage from far-right consumers for months following their partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. But Trump, who happens to own millions in stock in the company, came out this week to say enough is enough. "Anheuser-Busch is not a Woke company ... Anheuser-Busch is a Great American Brand that perhaps deserves a Second Chance?" he wrote on Truth Social. "What do you think? Perhaps, instead, we should be going after those companies that are looking to DESTROY AMERICA!"
Anheuser-Busch is notably hosting an upcoming fundraiser for the former president's 2024 campaign.

Jenner, who is transgender herself, publicly concurred with Trump, saying, “I think it is time to move forward - I am saying we should focus on big picture…agreeing with 45!” — and got buried in hate.
"Despite the fact that Jenner has described herself as 'anti-woke,' backed the GOP’s push to ban trans athletes from female sports, and even recently claimed that trans women aren’t really women, the reality TV star was widely mocked by the right for backing Trump on Bud Light," reported Justin Baragona. "'Bud Light screwed up by working with a trans influencer, but they’re not woke. To prove it, here’s a message from OUR trans influencer,' Townhall writer John Hasson reacted on X, formerly known as Twitter." Meanwhile, some other commentators used slurs and attacked Jenner using her deadname.
Jenner, who has done some commentary for Fox News, ran for governor in the California recall election in 2021, but flamed out relatively early.
