She continued, “He has ignored our humanity. He has insulted our dignity. He has made trans people into political pawns as he whips up animus against us in an attempt to energize the most right-wing segment of his party.”

Caitlyn humbly said that she has learned from her mistakes and wants to move forward, supporting transgender people across America.

According to the Los Angeles Times, a big part of the Los Angeles Women's March this year was to get Trump out of the White House and to focus on the women running for office. It's a powerful time for women, and Caitlyn's message was extremely optimistic.
