United States President Donald Trump announced this morning his resolution to prevent transsexuals in this country's armed forces. The media was announced through his favorite media outlet, Twitter.

The first of the three tweets he wrote to reveal it began by saying that after "consulting with my generals and military experts, please note that the United States government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the military. from United States".

As any explanation added, US forces "must focus on a decisive and overwhelming victory" and cannot afford to bear "the tremendous medical costs and the transgender disruption," said the president just a year ago, after the attack. Jihadist at Orlando's Pulse nightclub had assured the LGBT community that he was their "true friend."

One of the first media outlets to publicize this news was The New York Times, which noted that the president's announcement comes amid debate on Capitol Hill over the Obama-era practice of requiring the Pentagon to pay for the medical treatment related to gender transition”.

Only a month earlier, the Palm Center, a sex studies center, had said through a press release that “the ban on recruiting transgender people will have the effect of lying to them in their attempt to join the armed forces. The same thing happened before with homosexuals and the 'don't ask, don't count' policy. That entity also stated that such a measure would not make sense because "transsexuals have more than demonstrated their capacity to serve." A study by the Association of Physicians of the United States (JAMA, in its acronym in English) ensures that about 13,000 transsexuals they already belong to the army (1%) and that the military doctors are not prepared to attend to them, much less to ensure their correct transition.
