Because NOT doing something is so expensive.
NBC is another Obama mouthpiece.
But, we already knew that.
Yeah, I don't see the logic, either.
And, even if the wildest numbers are correct and there are 15,000 Transsexuals in the military (that's a full division of them? I call BS!!!) ..... the estimated cost to replace them - replacement, so it necessarily would be over and above base cost for the personnel - is nearly a Billion dollars?
The logic is not strong with this one. Unfortunately, the MSM will dutifully repeat the bogus stats, without a thought of review.
The left is famous for looking at things with a completely static analysis. It’s how they justify “minimum wage” laws and such.
Everything is dynamic with policy change. How did the military ever survive for over 200 years while banning not just cross-dressers, but sodomites as well?
Besides which, think how many MAGA types discouraged their kids from joining the military in the era of 0bama and his neutering of the military. Who would want to enlist, knowing he was the CIC, and you might be sleeping next to a gay or transgender person in your tent in the desert?
I think this change will bring an uptick in enlistments of patriotic young people.
