Trump is, but you can see its an uphill battle.

Don’t have an aneurism over everything you see in the press. Do you think Trump would have said they had to go if he didn’t mean that? He is probably going to let them clock out as their present commitments run out. And no paying for “cosmetic” medical procedures in the meantime. I don’t know what else he might do, but the end of this experiment is here, so long as Trumps around.

If a teen boy ids as girl must he still register . Is he still a male person?

What if a woman decides to id as a man, must they now register for the draft ?

Are you starting t understand why I keep saying I don’t want to be president, I want to be king.

The lad that helps me around the yard is more loyal to me, than the President cabinet is to him.

So now we have an deliberately impotent Sessions, Tillerson basically saying that Trump’s values are not American values, Cohn suggesting Trump is a racist, and now Mattis flaunting insubordination.

Worse yet they’re undermining Trump’s agenda with absolute impunity.

I put all the blame for this on Trump for selecting such a disloyal team - and I like Trump.

“He is probably going to let them clock out as their present commitments run out.”

How many guys were RIFFed out several times in our military? They weren’t given the option of finishing out their contracts. The perverts are.

Why?

You are a sane voice in a sea of panic mongers.

Agreed. This will surely end up in court... worth the time to do it right.

I have the solution for the transgender scam.

Put all the boys who want to be gals and all the gals who want to guys in one room, together.

Put the boys wanting to be girls on one side and the gals wanting to be guys on the other.

Now give all the guys wanting to be girls plastic one time use knives and all the gals wanting to be guys one of those little super glue tubes.

Now as soon as the guys wanting to be gals cut it off with the one time use plastic knives the gals wanting to be guys, scoop them off the floor and glue them between their legs.

End of problem.

You hand these faggots DD-214 and tell them to hit the road. Takes about 10 minutes.

I think Mattis is a closet gay/cross dresser.

Funny, implementing it happened with an executive order stroke of the pen.

Well, not really. The "participation" of gender challenged individuals in the service has been around for a lot longer that either of us would care to admit. Sometimes kept in the closet, and at other times quite open.

I can recall a Vietnam vet army warrant officer and pilot in the 80's who went through his "transformation" (on his own dime on believe) and continued to fly UH-1s at Ft Rucker until he/she retired. It was weird, but it happened. And his/her unit officers and men didn't seem to have an issue with it.

I'm not condoning it, and I really don't agree with it, but in that case, apparently it worked. Legally I have no idea how they made it work what with the UCMJ and all, but it did.

Whats really annoying is that the same folks who were ecstatic to have Mattis appointed because of his career accomplishments and reputation are getting their panties in a wad because they want to get this right.

I don't agree with the alternate lifestyles of LGBT, but as the adults in charge, we can at least be professional and thoughtful in how all people are handled.

It will not end up in court. You give up your Constitutional right when you join the military. They can let anyone go at anytime for any reason.

And maybe that’s what they will do. How about giving them a chance to figure it out.

It is just politics. They can let these people go tomorrow. We lived in f up world. This is just more proof.

I was in the Navy in the 80's. One of the sailors was outed when he made a pass at the wrong sailor. He was gone, off the ship, by helo in 2 hours. Processed completely out in two weeks.

Riffing, like company lay offs, is non-discriminatory in nature. This is very targeted and they need to minimize the exposure to legal challenges, even if the President has every right to do this.
