Donald Trump Reloaded!

This is for topical issues effecting our fair world... you can quit snickering anytime. Note: It is the desire of the leadership of SFDebris Conglomerate that all posters maintain a civil and polite bearing in this forum, regardless of how you feel about any particular issue. Violators will be turned over to Captain Janeway for experimentation.

Wouldn't it be ironic if a whole bunch of closeted trans people suddenly came out, thus increasing trans presence in public life, in order to avoid getting drafted into the Iran meat grinder that's probably coming.
If that works there'd probably be a ton of cis guys pulling a Klinger too.

Great.

First they were been lying that all trans women are actually cis-male predators trying to get into women's restrooms.

NOW, they'll be saying that transgender soldiers are actually cisgender COWARDS trying to get/stay out of the military.

This bull is writing itself.

Basic fascist playbook, the enemy is both too strong and too weak.

I'm sure the Heritage Foundation guys he brought in to actually do the work of running the country for him are eager to ban everyone who isn't a straight cis man from the service, but no reason to credit Trump with it.
I think he mentioned it during his ramblings, but I doubt he made the decision to move forward with this. He may have just signed off on it once they told them what they wanted to do.
I got nothing to say here.
