Trump announces ban on transgender individuals serving in military
More winning!!! I hope this means that the military will stop paying for sex changes.

Quote:President Trump tweeted Wednesday that the U.S. government will not allow transgender people “to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military.”

In a series of tweets, he wrote:

"After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow...Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming..victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you."

The president’s tweets came only a few weeks after Defense Secretary James Mattis said he would give military chiefs another six months to conduct a review to determine if allowing transgender individuals to enlist in the armed services will affect the “readiness or lethality” of the force. The deadline for that review was Dec. 1, 2017.

So this is why my local news station ran a piece on "the first transgender to server in the Minnesota reserves" this past week. I did not know this was going on.

I don't know enough about the underlying details of gender dysphoria to have an education opinion here for someone completely through the process of transitioning. I will say that I can't see a world in which it would be a good idea while transitioning.

That seemed to be his point. The military doesn't need to be paying for sex changes. It needs to be defending the country.

The tweet doesn't define "transgender."

This is a smart move. We do not allow people with mental disorders to serve in the military, and we should not make an exception for trannies.

Can't wait for someone to let this dumb*** know he can't ban anyone through a tweet. He actually has to get his fat ass off the couch and sign something. I'm sure he'll get to it in a few weeks after his lazy ass is done playing golf.

Trannies arent gay. Theyre trannies.
