I served in Iraq in 2006. For the first five months I was on a 12 man firebase out in the middle of nowhere in the desert.

Everyday was Groundhog Day. Wake up and do the same patrols, the same shifts, every single day. It was so damn hot. 150

Right on, Bro....right on.
Libs live in a fantasy world of insane idealism.
They try to bring credibility to the mentally deranged and the insane.
IF allowed, they will push the rest of us into it only to see us all killed.
Screw that BS. IF they want to be transgender in civilian life, have at it.
But having one next to me in combat will get THEM killed....not me.

A ‘transgender’ person is not someone you would want to be in a foxhole with.

Very few, if any at all, who are bitchin g about Trump’s tweet served on the military. I don’t count McCain because he’s a nut case.

The Left (as proven by their stance on abortion) have such a cavalier attitude about life. This handwringing is further proof: To hell with the grunts and soldiers on the ground, this is about the FEELS of .00001% of the population.

It’s all a game to them.

Yes, very powerful. Everyone should read the list of twitter posts.

Very well said young man. Now wait until women show up in fire bases. Time for that policy to be chunked next. Do it all now Mr President, let the lunatic left melt down over it all at once and move on. Thank you for this common sense decision.

Great testimony but let’s never forget, the people forcing these kinds of decisions down our throats do not care. They are self-absorbed, protected, and have no concern for those who serve. Your arguments are completely lost of them.

Someone needs to tell them to try it for a year and see how that works for you

He explained it so well.

The military (rightly) won’t take my son because he is visually impaired in one eye following an accident. Otherwise he is a smart kid who would have probably served country well.

But they would take a mentally unstable transgender person in the middle of hormone-induced emotional problems. If gender re-assignment is the right thing to do, why is their suicide rate so high?

Boggles the mind.

Some of the criticisms to the Twitter thread within the thread are just revolting.

At the end of the day, why should what is a clear majority of honorable and capable men be inconvenienced and irritated by what amounts to a very very small group of freaks who seek approval for what they know is aberrant and abhorrent behavior?

In the past the ones that slipped through were fragged. Same thing should happen now.

The only way freakish change like this can happen is by mandate that just does not care about any negative consequence. The people who make these mandates do it because they can. They only understand one language and one response: Force and NO.

Legal Force and NO is what Trump did today. He needs to do more of the same.
