Hollywood stars took to social media Wednesday to express outrage over President Donald Trump’s announcement that transgender people will not be allowed to serve in the U.S. military, reversing former President Obama’s decision last year allowing them to do so.
“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,” President Trump tweeted Wednesday morning. “Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical cost and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you.”

Star Trek actor and gay activist George Takei sent what appeared to be a threat to Trump, warning that he “just pissed off the wrong community” and said the president “will regret” this action.
The news spurred some stars to viciously attack the president, with some calling Trump a cruel bigot.

The President is absolutely RIGHT!!!
What better way to distract the left? Toss them some red meat to chew on….the queer community will be the first dog off its leash….with the media yelling, Seck’em….
I agree with President Trump. The cost these Transgender people need for changing their ID is an ongoing payment. This is not what the military medical establishment was set up to pay for. If these people want to help or serve our country then they need to look at a different way of doing it and not costing we the tax payers more money.
First there were the immigrants seeking citizenship for service. Then there were the women seeking equality and for that, they got service. Now we have the whatever’s seeking Expensive Elective Surgical Procedures for their service.
If that flies, why can’t a straight man get a Penal Implant or a straight woman get a Boob Job? And, if not….WHY?
