Tense moment Caitlyn Jenner clashes with Gayle King as CBS host says she has ‘no experience’ to beat Gov Newsom
CAITLYN Jenner and Gayle King clashed in a tense exchange on Wednesday after the CBS host questioned whether she is qualified to be California governor.
Jenner, 71, hit back that she could do a better job as an “outsider” and that she would still have an experienced political team around her.
"Why? Because I’m an outsider. Right now, I have no ties to Sacramento and I think that’s a good thing to be from the outside.
“I’m running as a California citizen who has lived there for 48 years, and I want to fix the system.
“You notice I did not say in that statement ‘trans women,’” Jenner continued.
“I said ‘biological boys.’ What I would do as governor is put together a commission. Trans women compete in the Olympics and NCAA but when it gets down to high school levels there are guide rules, there are no rules and regulations on how they can.
“Trans women who are truly trans, who at a very young age started proper medical treatment, they’ve grown up as girls, of course, they should be able to compete in girls’ sports. But some guy who hasn’t done any therapy hasn’t done anything, there has to be a review board,” Jenner continued.

“I would be the first governor to put together a review board to review each case.
“Such a small issue. It’s like a non-issue that’s out there. I would be surprised if there are 30 trans athletes in the entire state.”
