24 hours after it was reported that Caitlyn Jenner’s campaign was going over $ 150,000 in the red after spending over $ 910,000 on things like sushi dinners and limo rides, the gubernatorial candidate castigates his Democratic opponent, Gov. Gavin Newsom, for going out to dinner with a group of people nine months ago.
Yesterday Jenner, who is currently filming a reality show Down Under, tweeted, “Is this the next step for the whole state ?! @GavinNewsom is ready to shut us down again while he drinks and dines with his lobbyist friends at the French Laundry.
The French Laundry incident she is referring to happened last November, when Newsom was pictured having dinner outside at the iconic California restaurant with a group of a dozen people. He later apologized for his poor judgment and everyone moved on.
Everyone, that is, except Jenner. She’s been attacking him for it ever since. But based on people’s feedback, along with some important Newsom polls and huge fundraising numbers, it didn’t work.
Here is the answer…
Girl, hush.

How much mileage can you get from ONE dinner at the French Laundry? Please – find a new harp string. It’s so last year. If YOU were at the helm, EVERYBODY would dine at the French Laundry – happily spreading the virus wherever they went.

Are you running on something constructive or positive? Because we haven’t seen Jenner yet!

Trolling doesn’t show your ability to lead or solve complex, long-term public health issues, Ms. Jenner. Go home.

Oh Caitlyn… can’t you find some new material to use?

I don’t think you have a real plan to fight this virus in California. Higher vaccination rates and masks will prevent another shutdown.

In other Jenner news yesterday, she tweeted an article published by The Hill about a new Emerson College – Nexstar poll that found 46% of California voters were in favor of the recall vote against Newsom , while 48% said they were opposed. The remaining six percent said they were undecided.
“Californians are done with Gavin Newsom! She pointed out.
Ironically, Jenner told reporters last month she didn’t believe polls after a poll by the University of California, the Berkeley Institute of Government Studies and the Los Angeles Times found that she only voted 3%, compared to a few 6%. months earlier.
“I’m not concerned about the polls,” Jenner said, adding that she “would guarantee” she was ahead because of her “huge advantage, obviously because of her name recognition.”
On Tuesday, Jenner missed a debate between GOP candidates vying for the Newsom job because she’s still in Australia filming Big Brother. It is not yet clear when she will return to the United States, but postal voting for the election begins in just a few weeks.
