This is why the naysayers will never get me on their side. Trump is the best President in history already and NOBODY can convince me otherwise. Sure Washington was needed during his time. Reagan did his thing in the 80’s, but never did his own thing and only care about the American people. Reagan allowed the Democrats to walk all over him where there is no way Trump would allow that.

>>>Oh, NO!

Trump just lost the queer vote. <<<

Does that include the so-called “Log Cabin” Republicans. Will they finally give up the charade and return to the democrat party where they belong?

there have always been, they just have been under the radar

Gays and Lesbians yes.....Transexuals? No way.....if they didn’t have physicals every year then ok, but you cannot be a Transexual and get away with it. It would be impossible.

Nice...yet a judge will overturn this. Then if it goes to SCOTUS you know Roberts will make it a law for them to be in military.

Oh, I have no doubt about that!

Run to the courts like a child running to mommy!

But the Constitution is explicit: The President of the United States is the COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF ALL THE ARMED FORCES.

Not the Congress and not the courts...................

Outstanding. The military allowing fags and lesbians must cease, too. The open rejection of both the morals and Christian faith this country was founded upon must cease and desist. I damn sure do not recall atheists when the damn bullets zinged by, incoming indirect rounds exploded, and; men lay on the ground with their intestines exposed. Trump has it right.

This has been a nightmare for the military. Thousands of pages of regulations are being rewritten because of the decision to admit transgenders. It has really complicated almost every aspect of the military and wasted a lot of resources. Everything from building codes for military barracks to fitness standards.
At what point does a male transitioning to a female have to meet female fitness standards?
At what point do they have to meet appearance standards?
What uniform do they wear and at what point in the transition to they wear it.
What happens when someone addresses their commanding officer using the wrong pronoun?
If someone is transitioning to a different gender, should they be forced to go to war when there are no medical facilities available for their “problem”?
How do you treat them when they’re in the field?
Do they have separate bunking and latrine facilities?

This is going to consume the news cycle to give Sessions cover as he gets to work on putting Hillary behind bars.

“there have always been, they just have been under the radar”

There is some confusion between homosexual, gay and transgender. Here is what I have gleaned from a lifetime of observation. A homosexual is somebody sexually attracted to the same sex. A gay is somebody who has made a “lifestyle choice” and could be either. Gays, by my observation are exclusively communist/socialists. Transgenders are people who get turned on by pretending to actually be the opposite sex.

The difference between a homosexual and a gay is; you can be a conservative homosexual, but you can not be a conservative gay. They are politically different. (Not to say you can’t have a homosexual communist.)

The problem of transgenders and the reason their suicide rate is so high is, they believe that if they “transition” (mutilate) themselves into being the opposite sex, that the men/women they are attracted to will be attracted to them. But real men and real women want only real women and real men to mate with. Something that kind-of looks like the real thing simply won’t do. It has to actually be the real thing. And, there are enough to go around that substitutions aren’t necessary. Real men and real women, I think, are appalled by transsexuals. I read a recent article by a transsexual saying, essentially, “hey, nobody wants to date us!” The author seemed lost as to why this was so.

DJT has the courage to do what must be done, despite the firestorm he just ignited. We do not need the mentally ill in our armed forces and their illness should not be condoned, nor should the US taxpayers have to pay for their surgeries.
