Re: Trump to ban trans people from military
An important measure and not a surprise, and one that has been implemented with smart efficiency- but the fast pace of policy reversals of Trumpery by the Federal Govt now accompanies an equally fast-pace attempt by the States to use Transgendered Americans as the proof that 'White Heterosexual Christians' are the victims of 'cancel culture' -these two trends, including the hundreds of Bills seeking to remove the vote from millions of Americans, are at odds with each other, and a resolution must be found as the two collide -presumably in the Supreme Court.
But what do most Americans support? Extending rights to Transgended Americans, or restricting them?

Re: Trump to ban trans people from military
I think the split is pretty much along party lines, but transphobia is probably still in the lead. People really think rapists will "pretend" to be trans so they can legally be in women's bathrooms, and that athletes will go through the trauma of transition strictly for a competitive advantage.

Re: Trump to ban trans people from military
This view from a Professor in Pittsburgh-
"I found evidence in the US that families and communities would accept children as a different gender than the one they were assigned at birth, let them go to school, use the correct bathroom, all of the things that are being fought over now. We can see that 70 or 80 years ago, we were actually in a more progressive place in some areas."
