Caitlyn Jenner escalated her war of words with Dylan Mulvaney, ripping the trans influencer as “fringe” and “not good” for the LGBT movement.
“I have never spoken to her, nor will I,” Jenner, 73, told The Post, dismissing any possibility of a sit-down between the two trans titans.
“I try to be, for the LGBT community, the adult in the room. She is not. She is bouncing around all over the place. I have nothing in common with her.
“The fringe is the worst thing that can happen to the trans community and the media only wants to report on that because of the sensationalization of it and honestly that’s got to stop,” Jenner said.
Mulvaney 26 — a biological male — has raised ire among conservatives after being signed as a rep for various brands advertising on Instagram. Endorsement deals for Bud Light and Nike drew particular condemnation — with Jenner herself joining the pile-on.
“As someone that grew up in awe of what [Nike co-founder] Phil Knight did, it is a shame to see such an iconic American company go so woke!” she tweeted.
The beef has been simmering for months and began long before Mulvaney’s string of brand-name endorsement deals. In October 2022, Jenner took issue with Mulvaney’s campaign to “normalize the bulge” — a reference to “women” who have male genitalia.
“Dylan …congrats you’re trans with a penis,” Jenner snapped in a tweet.
“I am glad the position I am at today that I can be a voice of reason about what is going on out there,” Jenner told The Post.
Though she has been one of the most visible transgender people since announcing her transition in a 2015 Vanity Fair profile, Jenner has alienated many in her own community with her outspoken embrace of conservative politics.
She ran for governor of California as a Republican in 2021 and has become a high-profile Fox News star. The channel is the only cable news network to employ a full-time trans contributor.
This month Jenner launched a Political Action Committee, Fairness First, dedicated to keeping transgender women from competing in sports with biological women.
She also remains a vociferous supporter of former President Trump, who she was with this week at Mar-a-Lago, where they talked about golf. “The conversation was not too political,” she said.
While she stopped just short of an endorsement, the Olympic gold medalist remained full of effusive praise for Trump.
“I think Trump is going to win this thing … He is a great man and he did tremendous things for this country,” Jenner said adding that she would be “honored” to campaign for him.
“We need an adult in the room and that adult right now is Donald Trump and that’s just kind of the way I feel right now,” she said.
But she’s also not afraid to take it to conservatives.
“I think the right sometimes doesn’t believe in gender dysphoria, that it is real. … I have lived it,” Jenner said — adding that she was against blanket bans on gender-affirming care for minors.
“Every journey is different. My journey was very different. I am not in a position where I can say to some parent struggling with a child what they should do. This is between the parents, the doctor, and the child. Keep government out of this issue,” Jenner said.
