Like many baby boomers, I grew up in a time when there was little support or acceptance of diversity in gender but that was almost 70 years ago and yet some still have the same approach.
It has been reported in the media that the Trump transition team is looking at removing all transgender people from serving in the US military. This will be about 15,000 people no longer protecting their country and its constitution.
Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has also stated on X, “This will improve recruitment and save money.” Sacking people will save money but how will it get more people to join up?
Those that serve should be supported, respected and honoured, they are never ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’ as it is alleged Donald Trump said. Support all those that serve as you may one day need their support.
