Trump bans transgenders from military service

[IceAgeComing]

An incredibly disgusting proposal that's only going to harm the US army by diluting it's talent pool - while pushing out already trained personel (sure they won't be discharged; but would you stick around with the person who is intimately your boss pushing things like this?).  A large number of NATO members including the UK have had trans people serving in their forces for a lot longer than the US and it has had no impact on "battle worthiness".  This is just a group of people pushing their agenda on a country, and screw any practical impacts that it may have.

Well I was right on the way the religious right would spin it

"But it cuts money from regular programs, support our troops! yada yada" Same stuff, different day

Yet they spent $84m on viagra and sexual dysfunction drugs. Funny that.

Which is four times what they spend annually on gender reassignment procedures.  I mean both are mere drops in the ocean for funding but that never stops people from spinning these things.

Honestly, Donald Trump is a piece of sh-t and anyone who voted for him is a stupid f-ck. I don't even care. Anyone with half a brain could have seen the bullsh-t of the last six months coming, and if you actually like what he's done with and to the presidency, there's categorically something wrong with you.

...didn't you vote for Stephen Harper?
