Caitlyn Jenner says she'd consider a run for public office to the collective sigh of the world
Caitlyn Jenner has almost no experience in politics -- so it should come as no surprise that she's considering a potential run.
Jenner revealed her intentions to Don Lemon on Tuesday while on the set of CNN Tonight. She also left open the possibility she might serve on a foundation instead, if it better served the gay and trans community.
"Yes, I would have to look, over the next year or two, look and see, can I do a better job on the outside or am I in a position now that I can do a better job for my community on the inside," Jenner said.
Jenner is currently promoting her memoir, The Secret Life.
The reality star has come under fire in the past few months for voting for President Trump. In March, Trump rescinded an executive order that protected transgender students in public schools. Though Jenner spoke out about the order, she has so far refused to retract her endorsement.
Jenner also recently told The Daily Beast that she stood by Kendall's Pepsi commercial, so if that's not a popular policy position, I don't know what is.
