Hillary Clinton may have trouble keeping up the Kardashians’ support come this November. Or at least the most famous of them, anyway.
In August 2015, Kim Kardashian West famously snapped a selfie with the New York Democrat, endorsing the former secretary of state by tweeting that she “really loved hearing her speak & hearing her goals for our country!”
As recently as June, Ms. Kardashian West said Mrs. Clinton had her vote.
But now, after talking with stepmother and registered Republican Caitlyn Jenner — who originally preferred Ted Cruz in the primaries — Ms. Kardashian West describes herself as “on the fence” when it comes to her vote, The Huffington Post reported Friday.
“At first I thought, ’Oh my God, I’m so Hillary [Clinton]’, but I had a long political call with Caitlyn last night about why she’s voting Trump. I’m on the fence,” she said in an interview for a forthcoming print edition of Wonderland magazine.
In a TV interview in August, Ms. Jenner was careful to say that while she is not really a Trump supporter, she remains a Republican.
“I believe in the simple things. I believe in our Constitution,” Ms. Jenner said during an Aug. 3 appearance on HBO’s “Any Given Wednesday.” “I think the Republican side, although I’ve been very disappointed with them over the last 10 to 20 years, has a better opportunity to bring this country back to really, as close as you can to what it was.
“I am here, since I’m on the Republican side, to help the entire Republican Party do a better job when it comes to LBGT issues,” she said. “I have kind of positioned myself with the Republican Party to try to help these people understand. [To help] the Republican Party understand what the issues are for the LBGT community.”
