Politics Trump bans most transgender Americans from serving in the military

[SlyPokerDog]

President Trump on Friday moved to ban most transgender people from serving in the military.

Trump issued a memo Friday on policies determined by Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, stating that transgender people are "disqualified from military service except under limited circumstances."

"Transgender persons with a history or diagnosis of gender dysphoria -- individuals who the policies state may require substantial medical treatment, including medications and surgery -- are disqualified from military service except under certain limited circumstances," the memo reads.

Trump first called for a ban on transgender troops in a series of tweets last summer, and followed up in August by issuing a memo banning transgender people from enlisting.

The ban has since been battled over in court, with Mattis saying earlier this year that he would give Trump a final recommendation. It was expected that he would recommend Trump allow transgender troops to remain in the military.

Fucking shit show.

Fucking shit show.

Well, we don't want to spend any money on them. We're being really frugal, witness the 1 plus trillion dollars for the next 5-6 months.

Every time a Trump sexual encounter makes the news Trump does something foolish to change the news cycle. Oh well if it ruins people’s careers or lives. Lawsuit filed, accept meeting with NK, interview clips, fire people and higher warmongers, another suit filed or interview and ban transgenders from the military.

Trump is really good at diverting the attention of people but at a huge fucking cost to this nation.

Trump banned himself from the military about 3 times when we had a draft.....

What does he know about serving this country? He's a consumate egotist.

 

[julius]

It always seems that the people who have the strongest opinions on who should or should not serve, never actually served themselves.

 

[calvin natt]

He’s a lunatic plain and simple. Literally a crazy person

Just imagine if Obama did half the stuff Chumpstain has done? Or hell, half of what Obama himself was accused of doing? Half the country would've seceded again.

Trump does all sorts of shit against people and nothing (and he claims its the other side that does it).

He is a quite a masterful con artist.

It’s like I’ve been saying. Nothing matters. Nothing. Who cares. Nobody can do anything anymore that even matters. Kids blown up at schools, our President in legal matters with porn stars, nothing matters. Rubio going in front of kids and promising something then a day later says yeah never mind, news outlets bashing kids for speaking up, a wall going up for gazillions of dollars we don’t have, I mean, literally nothing matters. Lie, change your mind, bang porn stars while your wife is pregnant, who cares?

I just imagined earlier today Trump asking Obama to come help him. I would beg him to if I were Trump but we know that wouldn't happen in a million years

I've always wondered why the winning candidate doesn't enlist the help of the losing candidate. Even if you don't agree, it would help win in the long run.

Could you imagine Hillary helping Trump for 4 years?

Or Sarah Palin helping Biden?

No. But I meant in a normal election. Both Trump and Palin were absolutely fucking nutjobs who conned their way into money/notoriety. But I could see John Mccain (when he was normal) helping.

This story ain't over yet.

People who hate people just because of their sexual orientation are sick.

With Trump's mistresses lining up to tell all, he needs to prove to his base he is a True Christian TM and how better to do so? Reportedly Pence asked anti-gay hate groups to write an executive order for Trump to sign. Now all his supporters can nod their heads and say yes, he was sent by god!

What a disgusting waste of human flesh he is.
