AceShowbiz - Caitlyn Jenner has found a supporter in Tomi Lahren. The former Olympic medalist has been defended by the conservative political commentator after she was harassed at CPAC over the weekend.
Taking to her Twitter account, the Fox Nation host condemned the transphobic attack which she labelled as "despicable." She posted on Sunday, July 11, "The attacks on @Caitlyn_Jenner are despicable."
Coming prepared for possible harsh response from fellow conservatives, Tomi insisted that she will fight for Caitlyn even if it would alienate her from the Republican community. "I'll go to bat for her every single time and if you want to take my 'conservative' card for it, take it and shove it," she stressed. "Your mob is no better than the Left's and in fact, it's uglier."
She added in a separate tweet, "Hearing how some 'conservatives' treated @Caitlyn_Jenner at CPAC makes my blood boil. There's no room for your hate in the America First movement. We believe in freedom and we believe in limited government. The way she chooses to live her personal life harms you in no way!"

Caitlyn received the disrespectful treatment when making an appearance at CPAC in Dallas. On Saturday, a conservative activist posted a video of himself following the former reality TV star around at the event, referring to the athlete-turned-celebrity-turned-politician as "Bruce" and "a sick freak."
In the video, the heckler hurled questions such as, "What do you think about the stuff they're teaching schools about LGBT?" Other reports said that the transgender rights activist was called "t****y multiple times.
Caitlyn announced her run as a Republican for governor of California earlier this year. "The American Dream grew up here. Yet, career politicians and their policies have destroyed that dream. It's been locked away, closed, shuttered, left in the dark, burned down," she said in her announcement in April. "The government is now involved in every part of our lives. They've taken our money, our jobs, and our freedom. California needs a disruptor - a thoughtful disruptor."
