"After consultation with my generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military,” Mr. Trump wrote. “Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail.

So, I'm no Trump supporter by any means. In fact, I think he's pretty much a piece of shit. But in this case I think he has a point. I think maybe he just should have worded it differently.

The few trans friends I have pay a stupid amount of money for medical upkeep after their transitioning, plus the amount they pay for medication is crazy. Both of them have good jobs, and they say it's worth the cost, so if they can afford it, more power to them, ok?

But looking to the gov't to take care of those costs is asking too much. Hell, most normal people with medical issues are released from service because it's more of a financial and physical burden than the military should have to handle, ok?

So he's going after the other 1%?
