I have been observing political maneuvering in California as relates to the recall of Governor Newsom and the candidates lining up to replace him. During appearances in conservative media, hosts have referred to the putative CA gubernatorial candidate as "Caitlyn Jenner" and used the pronoun "she."
As Jenner continues campaigning, Conservative, Inc. is going to find itself in a position of pitiful intellectual inconsistency. For years, conservatives have rejected the concept of "trans" as simply impossible. Conservatives seek to understand and amplify objective reality over political narratives. Accepting the concept that Jenner is female is a direct assault on this philosophical and factual perspective.
While Jenner is advancing conservative principles, are conservatives going to simply ignore the fact that Jenner is a person suffering from delusion? No!
There is absolutely no way that this issue is going to disappear. I believe that conservative stalwarts need to formulate and articulate a coherent perspective on this issue. This perspective must acknowledge the objective reality that Jenner was born male, continues to be male, and will never be anything except male. Humans are born male and female — a condition established at the moment of conception, entirely unchangeable. To accept Jenner's premise that he has transformed into a female is to fully reject objective reality. (This is not to say Jenner's comments in support of other conservative principles are incorrect.)
During many programs on both radio and television, and within the conservative blogosphere, pundits exhort their listeners to reject leftist language and leftist assumptions about humanity and political issues. Accepting Jenner as female can do nothing but nullify those exhortations and serves to fully discredit subsequent strategies offered to thwart leftism.
I believe in objective, observable reality. I reject leftist philosophy and leftist efforts to dismantle the social fabric of USA

“Then vote dem by not voting at all, if that is what you want.”
Then I will not vote.
Well, he can legally change his name to ‘caitlyn’, but that doesn’t make him a woman.
That said, Hannity had Kaitlyn Jenner on last night. Great interview.. sounds like a conservative.
He’s not the lessor of two evils. He’s the embodiment of the Marxist idea that the truth doesn’t exist.
He’s a living lie
If that’s the best the GOP can muster up, then there is no hope for California.
I notice you misgendered it.
Even you acknowledge he’s a living lie.
Fake woman. Fake conservative.
There is NO HOPE for CA. they have DESTROYED the demographics of the state it has gone WAY PAST the point of no return!! I live here my 92 year old mom is in my home as soon as she passes I am OUT OF HERE!! I feel like I am living in Mexico!!
If someone tells you they’re being their true self while pretending to be something they’re not, they’re insane.
No we just don’t care. If he wants to call himself a female and wear a dress, then ok.
What I don’t want is him having access to female bathrooms and showers. I don’t want him taking care of my children. I don’t want him held up as an example of what we all should be aspiring too
You will be voting Dem by not voting, that is the problem
I don’t think Bush ever believed what he said. He was a Democrat in Republican attire.
It’s not biblically described as illusion but as evil.
No thanks.
The repercussions on the family and kids are incalculably bad and I will never ever vote for this.
There are better candidates already in the ring. And there will be more. Jenner just gets all the press cause it’s in your face perversity.
What if he decides he is a mermaid.
I can’t believe this is even being discussed on FR. You’d think we have some basic sanity here.
If he ever got elected it would do incredible damage to the entire narrative of the family as building block of society. This truth will be obfuscated even further than it already is. Children hardest hit.
There will be many republicans to choose from.
If someday all the republicans nominate is a tranny I will absolutely vote third party. Same if they nominate a homosexual. Some lines I just won’t cross.
More of the political class attempting to get us to violate our principles in trade for a pig-in-a-poke.
If you vote for this fake woman as a conservative, then you will get a governor who will advance one or two conservative agenda items.
If you accept this aborted cell tested vaccine, then you’ll be safe from the virus and free to fly on planes and mingle at ball parks.
Wonder why they are so keen on our violating our conscience as part of a trade-off?
Bears repeating. It's why you don't hire whack jobs.
Why would any Republican want to be governor of California? You just get blamed for everything.
Very not worth the long term price.
Pragmatism is a failed strategy.
