That's exactly what you implies. Solid crawfish though.

I don't know what Trump said about trannies nor do I care. Whatever he said, this is the right move and every sane individual should agree wholeheartedly with it.

Context.

What freedoms has he fought against? He's the only president in American history to come in supporting the right to marry someone of the same sex.

The costs of treating gender disphoria must be massive.

Salmon seems pretty bored if this is a hill he wants to fight on

I agree with it on the basis of medical expenses.
I don't know how convinced I am of the mental aptitude basis.

By many around here if Trump states he will fight for all of Americans and their freedoms this means he is a hypocrite if standards, rules and restrictions are in place any where at any time about any thing. Its a silly argument.

...the freedom for tranny's to serve?

I think it's dumb to stop post-op folks from coming in, but getting the surgery while you're in puts you on a profile and takes you out of the fight for some time before and after. We have a soldier in my platoon undergoing the process now and they are going to be useless for the mission for a while before/after surgery until they are cleared. Just from that standpoint, I think it's kind of silly to have a soldier on the rolls who can't contribute to the mission because of an (arguably) elective procedure. It's a divisive issue. Comes up often when we are all sitting around talking at my unit.

If there are 15 transgenders that are in our military I'd be shocked. I could see one or two of them signing up just to make a spectacle but not 15 of them.

the freedom for tranny's to serve?
Posted on 7/26/17 at 9:56 am to Salmon
Did he run on fighting for that freedom?

I'm not replacing anything. Y'all are the ones trying to replace "freedom" with "right".
I'm using Trump's exact words.
I never claimed it was a right.

He ran on fighting for their freedoms, yes
And I realize politicians lie during their campaigns, but I also feel its ok to call them out on it as well.

The narrative progs are pushing is that there are 15K trans serving. They are throwing this number all over social media.
Simple math says they are wrong
Around 1% of Americans serve in the military.
0.6% of Adults identify as transgender according to an NPR study: LINK
So we are talking about 0.6% of 1% if all transgenders join the military. I think you would find that less than 1% of that 0.6% even want to.

A RAND study suggests there is probably around 11,000 such mentally ill people serving currently

Maybe a few more than that since the rule was thought to be changing.

Lol, RAND also did the women in service review concerning women in SOF operator roles too. Despite overwhelming evidence that women do not belong, and 90% disapproval rate from current SOF operators, Rand gave the recommendation that women be integrated. They chose excerpts from the SOF operator's surveys that put the operators in the worst possible light and framed the general response from the community as bigoted and overly traditional.
frick RAND, and frick the commanders that let this happen.
