- Caitlyn Jenner has been criticized for her support of 'anti-LGBT' Donald Trump
- Bruce Jenner was a stalwart Republican before she transitioned into Caitlyn
- Jenner will reportedly be attending the inauguration although it is believed she was not invited by Trump
Donald Trump will be officially sworn in as President of the United States tomorrow
Donald Trump has been urged to dance with Caitlyn Jenner at his inauguration ball on Friday night to prove that he is in touch with America's LGBT community.
The President-elect is unpopular with sections of the LGBT community, and it is apparently believed that the move could provide a way to bolster his support.
His advisers also reportedly believe that a dance with Jenner could build bridges with the party itself.
'It's a brilliant idea,' a member of the incoming administration told Richard Johnson at Page Six.
'The image of Trump dancing with Caitlyn would send a strong message that he supports gay rights and trans rights,' the Republican said.
'A picture is worth a thousand tweets.'
Bruce Jenner was a stalwart Republican long before she transitioned into Caitlyn.
The former Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete has been called the most famous openly transgender woman in the world, but has received criticism within the LGBT community for her support of Trump.
The Republican party is often seen to be broadly unsupportive of LGBT rights.
Trump has expressed support for North Carolina’s HB2 law, which states that in government buildings, individuals may only use restrooms and changing facilities that correspond to the sex on their birth certificates.
The President-elect has also said that he would rescind the Obama Administration’s guidance that transgender students be allowed to use restrooms that match their gender identity, and he has made it clear he would not enforce federal civil rights laws to ensure transgender Americans are treated equally under the law.
Jenner's publicist said: 'Can't deal in hypotheticals. We'll just have to wait and see.'
Jenner will reportedly be attending the inauguration although it is believed she was not invited by Trump, but will attend as a guest of the American Unity Fund, a conservative nonprofit that works on behalf of LGBTQ Americans.

If that is indeed the case, then it's time the Republican party starts acting like they're broadly unsupportive of LGBT rights.

No. He was a man. It intentionally made itself a freak of nature.

For example they cannot change chimp into man.

Not yet. For now, he's simply a cross-dresser. Trump shouldn't dance with Mr. Jenner any more than dance with Corporal Klinger:

Urged by whom?
This is not a real news report if it doesn't even say who is making this suggestion.

"Unnamed sources close to the inauguration".

That is the question, isn't it?
But the article seems to indicate it was 'his advisers'.

The LBGT community is pathological and can go to hell! I'm sick of psychotics being glorified, legitimized, and glamorized in this country.

Yep, right up the with 'reliable sources'.
'member of the incoming administration' doesn't help much, either.

He should be wood chipped. What would happen if a UFO should land and discover that sick twisted Stinky Peter Puff family wanna be? They'd destroy our planet thinking we are libertarian libtarded freaks the use the word equality.

Same thing as he played with cross-dresser Rachel Guiliani.

Who ever suggested that, should immediately FIRED. If Trump is stupid enough to do it, Melania should then divorce his ass and take 50 to 90 % of his assets !
After all, he won, he no longer needs the queer vote.

Today is a great day... for today is the day you cringe. Today you'll need to seek a safe space. Today I'll rejoice over your anguish.

I would have loved to have been there when the suggestion was made.
Might have been a real kodac moment.

I am so sick of all this catering to the queers, and perv's ! I do not believe that most of Trump voters voted for that!

I believe the msm will stop at nothing in order to demonstrate to their base that trump is a bigoted, racist, homophobic, womanizing empty suit who has no legitimate right to occupy the oval office.
