Former United States President Donald Trump is currently facing several federal charges stemming from his alleged mishandling of classified documents, and Caitlyn Jenner has recently made it very clear that she expects fellow Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis to agree to pardon the former president of his crimes – and she’s furious that DeSantis has not done it yet.
Caitlyn Jenner, who rose to fame several decades ago by winning the men’s decathlon in the 1976 Montreal Olympic games before eventually transitioning later in her life, is a vocal conservative Republican who has made her support of Donald Trump widely known. And this week, she made it clear that she was not happy with Ron DeSantis for his apparent refusal to agree to pardon the former president.
In a tweet posted on Wednesday, Jenner absolutely blasted DeSantis for the move, claiming that Trump is being “unjustly persecuted.”
YOUR TOP POLITICAL OPPONENT IS BEING UNJUSTLY PERSECUTED.
Agree to pardon him! This is a sham and you know it. But you hope you benefit from it. SHAME ON TEAM DESANTIS! https://t.co/hpJRIt422I— Caitlyn Jenner (@Caitlyn_Jenner) August 1, 2023
“YOUR TOP POLITICAL OPPONENT IS BEING UNJUSTLY PERSECUTED. Agree to pardon him! This is a sham and you know it. But you hope you benefit from it. SHAME ON TEAM DESANTIS!” Jenner said in a tweet.
It’s a pretty clear and brutal message from Jenner, and it led to plenty of reactions on social media as a result.
Unjustly?

Trump indicted and MAGA influencers rail against…Ron DeSantis.
Every. Single. Time. https://t.co/WFWVvKcOGl

Yeah…blame DeSantis for what the Justice Department is doing instead of focusing on the government issuing politically-motivated indictments.
No need to look at the REAL issue, right? https://t.co/ZuhidK3KVO

If he’s innocent, why will he need a pardon? https://t.co/Llv9k681De

So wait, MAGA is admitting that they aren't the front runners and are in fact, losing and thus need a commitment from another candidate who is trailing by 455940 points?
Which is it? He is not a threat or he has a legit shot of winning and you are terrified? https://t.co/keTwbXABuY

It’s no secret who Jenner will be voting for in the primary election.
