Caitlyn Jenner spars with Democratic Congressman over ‘condescending tone’

After Jenner referred to "[Gavin Newsom's] District Attorneys" in a tweet, Lieu pointed out that DAs are elected, not appointed by the Governor. He also asked if Jenner knows the meaning of basic terms used in politics, and linked to a video from Schoolhouse Rock explaining how a bill becomes a law.

Jenner responded by criticizing Lieu for his "condescending tone."

"Of course I know DAs are elected, but as the CEO of the state, the buck stops with Newsom," Jenner wrote. "If you want to defend the status quo then fine, but if you want to talk solutions to the crime in our streets, call anytime."

The announcement of Jenner's gubernatorial run was met with mixed reactions from Republicans. While the famed athlete has reportedly received the backing of some high-profile Trump associates, other Republicans have questioned whether Jenner is qualified to run the nation's largest state, or whether she could actually defeat the incumbent Newsom in an election. The response from Democrats has been more universally negative

The Kardashian family, which Jenner is a member of, has also reportedly indicate that they will not support Jenner's run for Governor.
