Trump’s latest edict surprised the national security establishment, short-circuiting a review of the current transgender policy recently ordered by Defense Secretary James Mattis and coming before the Pentagon’s personnel officials even had confirmation hearings, let alone started their jobs.

That's one less unnecessary task that they need not take part in so they can focus elsewhere. That increases combat effectiveness.

Guarantee that Mattis didn't want to put up with this BS training shite. He was directly questioned about itduring his confirmation hearings because he'd made statements in the past that he opposed all the new gender fads Obozo and his ilk came up with.

Trump just made the statement and owned it himself so Mattis and others wouldn't have to deal with the ensuing barrage of outcry from the left.
