'What is wrong with you'? Dem Rep. Steve Cohen offers up douchey take on Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner

In case you’ve somehow missed the news, Bruce Jenner — a self-professed Republican — officially came out today as “Caitlyn” on Twitter:

I'm so happy after such a long struggle to be living my true self. Welcome to the world Caitlyn. Can't wait for you to get to know her/me.

— Caitlyn Jenner (@Caitlyn_Jenner) June 1, 2015

As well as the cover of Vanity Fair:
