As one of my platoon sergeants used to say, this is from the mouth of the horse(ref Trump tweets at link).
Holy Common Sense, Batman.
Barely a week ago, the military put off a decision on allowing the enlistment/commissioning of people suffering from the mental illness called ‘gender dysphoria.’
As I pointed out, the premise was insane. The military will not allow a person with braces to serve on active duty and the ongoing medical attention needed to manage orthodontics is nothing compared to that needed by transgenders in the pre-op and post-op stages.
As far as I can tell, regulations haven’t been published and the DOD website still says transgenders will be allowed to serve(ref DOD Policy highlights at link):
So this decision, assuming Trump didn’t have bad pad thai last night and wake up ready to tweet, was closely held and made at the service chief level. Probably because the service chiefs all wanted the policy but all were afraid to go public in favor and they decided to let Trump do it because courting controversy is what he does. And, of course, there is a political dimension (Jon Swan tweet at link).
The practical implications are these:
Military hospitals will no longer perform gender reassignment surgery. (Okay, I’m of two minds on this because I can’t think of any way to better discourage transgenderism than to require that all surgeries be performed at military hospitals. One or two cases of a fake penis being attached to someone’s forehead or losing a gall bladder and three feet of colon in a surgical “misadventure” would be a helluva deterrent.)
Transgender persons in the enlistment process will not be processed.
Transgender persons now on active duty or serving in the reserves will be processed for an administrative discharge.
This is a great decision and it overturns a profoundly stupid and politically driven decision by Ash Carter’s SJWs.
Uh, “Breaking”?

Why would anyone want people in the military who can’t decide what they are?
“Did you just pull the pin on that grenade?”
“I’m not sure.”

"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.Most of the activity of the department [KGB] was to compile huge amount / volume of information, on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion. Publisher, editors, journalists, uh actors, educationalists, professors of political science. Members of parliament, representatives of business circles.Most of these people were divided roughly into two groups: those who would tow the Soviet foreign policy, they would be promoted to positions of power through media and public manipulation; [and] those who refuse the Soviet influence in their own country would be character assassinated OR executed physically, come Revolution. "--KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov--Soviet Subversion of the Free Press (Ideological subversion, Destabilization, CRISIS - and the KGB)

“Did you just pull the pin on that grenade?”
“I’m not sure.”
—
“What do you mean you’re not sure, and why are you holding an apple?”
“The apple is self-identifying as a grenade today.”
Technically these folks did decide to be a different gender than they were born.
Trump's tweet is not a policy document or an executive order so we will have to see that when he comes up with one.
“The apple is self-identifying as a grenade today.”
“Well, then, just drop the apple and throw yourself at the enemy. Will probably do more damage.”
This retired Army Officer could not be happier today over this move by the President. Now the person who wrote the new Army policy on letting males calling themselves female to use female showers and latrines needs to be fired immediately and the policy rescinded today. Next step Mr President: Get women out of combat jobs, Rangers, SEALS, SF, Infantry, Armor, FA etc. Keep the momentum going!!!
He just won re-election in one move.
Did Trump go over “Mad Dog’s” head? Trump said he consulted with the generals. Just curious.
Gotta stop normalizing deviant behavior somewhere.
The libs are going crazy over this. I thought they wanted guns out of the hands of the mentally ill.
RE:”Gotta stop normalizing deviant behavior somewhere.”
Anything can be normalized with the right medication.
Honestly a move like this would suggest he consulted with soldiers instead of Generals....wise move!
Obama’s , “Join The Military The Sex Change Is Free” campaign is over then ,LOL
When they say mentally ill they mean conservatives and Christians, not Transgens and Islamists.
Those last two groups are our future they say.
Oh, baby! This is wonderful!
Next, he needs to include HOMOSEXUALS to that ban ... for the very SAME reasons !
