  1. I'm not sure what the problem here is - I almost was rejected from enlisting in the USAF for flat feet. You can't enlist if your eye sight is too bad, you can't enlist if you're asthmatic, you can't enlist if you have a peanut allergy, you can't enlist if you're too short, you can't enlist if you're too heavy, you can't enlist if you're too skinny, and you can't enlist if you have a psychological disorder, which according to John Hopkins University's psychiatrist-in-chief is exactly what transgenderism is

    "conservatives who lobbied the White House say they were pushing only to prevent the Pentagon from paying for medical costs associated with gender confirmation -- not an outright ban.
    ...
    House Republican leaders knew the White House was already looking to change policy related to transgender people, but only as it relates to how or whether taxpayer money is being used for medical treatments, two Republican leadership sources told CNN.

    Trump's announcement on a total ban of transgender people serving in the US military was "far beyond leaders' expectations and caught many by surprise," one of those sources told CNN. "
