It is crazy the influence POTUS has over the United States. He threw out one tweet this week on a trans ban on the military and now we have liberals supporting the military, it is practically unheard of. Look, at first I will admit I was skeptical and unsure why the President was doing this. I might be a little freaked out by transgenders, (because I don't really understand it at all), but I didn't know the logical reasoning as to why they would no longer be able to fight along side a man and a woman. Trump's line of reasoning is no where near discriminatory, it is logical rather than emotional, (how a liberal functions), like everything else he does for our country.
In the military, if you are not up to their standards you are unable to join the armed forces. Such problems for disqualification include colorblindness, being flat footed, and mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety. Mental illnesses are taken the most seriously in the military and for good reason because they can put others at risk. Transgenders have what is diagnosed as "gender dysphoria," another mental illness. Naturally that would make them unable to serve in the armed forces, logically. That is problem number one. Being in the military requires laser focus, and being transgender becomes a road block in that line of vision.
Now this becomes an even bigger problem when transgender people have all their surgeries paid for via our tax dollars. Sorry that I would rather have my portion of money going towards surgeries in the armed forces going to some soldier that has had an arm blown off, rather than a new set of bolt-ons. Call me crazy, but I don't think that is helping the military what-so-ever, it is a social issue. Although liberals will say that roughly less than a percent of our tax dollars actually go towards such procedures, this is a cherry picked stat that doesn't consider the fact that in a 10 year period of time the cost of gender surgeries would rack up a 3-4 billion dollar expense. Also, these surgeries don't get rid of gender dysphoria or the depression and lack of fitting in all trans people deal with. That is an issue all on its own.
Liberals also argue that the military spends more on Viagra than on trans surgeries. Well, I don't think the military should be spending our tax dollars on any of that nonsense. The armed forces are not the place for a social experiment nor is it a place to treat erectile dysfunction. That is all I have to say on that little fact.
Case in point, I stand behind the President once again because he did what is best for the country and the armed forces. However, as I am writing this there is another march being posted on Facebook against this ban, whatever, peacefully assemble liberals. Peacefully.
God bless.
