Donald Trump today announced on Twitter that transgender people would no longer be allowed to serve in the U.S military.

Donald Trump - Transgender

Please find Human Rights Watch’s response, which can be attributed to Ryan Thoreson, LGBT researcher:

“Trump’s ban on transgender service members is repugnant and discriminatory. The president’s claim on Twitter that this is about saving money on medical costs is laughable. No qualified, capable person should be turned away from service solely because of who they are.”

MySocalledGayLife.co.uk has removed President reference, since we think Donald Trump do not deserve to be referred as President of any country. We are not able to take him seriously on his uneducated decisions.
