My immediate thought is that Klinger will be happy.
Trump's legacy will be long term damage to national security, rampant racism and discrimination, and widespread corruption.

I was once near to (but did not interact with) Jamie Farr maybe 10 years ago. It's really hard to see him and not picture him in a dress.

It would be a good move for Biden to offer them honorable discharges now... it'll be better than what they'll get if they wait.

They can form their own Blackwater and charge gazilion dollars to operate in the same places as they were before
You joke but that's why they want to fuck up the military. PMCs lobby too and they're willing to do everything in a war from flying the planes to being grunts on the line.

That's a lot of hard to replace talent. I don't think anyone I'm the military will let him go through with this. How anyone can support this mong is beyond me.
Not something anyone can stop if he chooses to go through with it. He is the commander of the armed forces. He can make sweeping policies like this that fuck up everything.

The ideological score here must be worth more to Trump than the strength of America's military, already hurting for new recruits, which says a lot and frankly scares the fuck out of me
Weakening the USA's defenses seems to be a consistent theme with Trump.
I think this signals the beginning of a very tough era for trans people more than it does anything about national security. But we shall see

Just going to completely wreck US cybersecurity defense.
Next they'll go after the furries and take all the navy's data centers offline
It has long been said that if all the furries and catgirls disappeared it would cause the internet to collapse overnight.
What's a catgirl? Is there a signup for that?
No only a test and you just passed. Congrats
Cat ears and tail will be emailed to you. Congratulations recruit. Don't ask how we know where you live :-P.
Coding socks are the new contraband.
I love/hate that I get all these references lol
It's part of the plan. fucking traitor.

I mean I support reducing the army. Can we kick out all cis men next?
Only if the base assumption is that they're all gay, and they only get kicked out if they tell us they're straight, otherwise we aren't asking.
Then place them in internment camps. We know where this is going you damn Nazi.
He's already completed the first step, by making them seem inhuman and criminal
Which is ironic, because he's the one who boasted about perving on kids

You think with the recruiting problems we have you'd do your best to retain the people we have.
If you can get through basic and fulfill your tasks you should be able to be in the military. If the government doesn't want to pay for "gender affirming care" that's fine. But these people should still be allowed in the military.
Also, what kind of discharge are these people getting? Honorable, General, Dishonorable?

Yikes. Not a good decision.
Would love to see him personally try to kick even one of them out of anything. Pathetic piece of shit.
Here we go folks, welcome to the hellscape that is the new America
Honestly, it was a hellscape before, we just shifted down a level deeper.
An easy to get general discharge from the military? I think lots of people with years left to serve are going to enjoy leaving early with all of their benefits.
Elon and Ramaswamy have already identified the VA as a target for cost cutting.
The VA, often criticized for consistently being over funded and helping disabled veterans live like kings. :/

I have a feeling most of the benefits will be going out the door behind them shortly thereafter.

How to create government jobs, while also remaining a christofascist overlord. Just like old times, eh?
