What the Democrats are not talking about is the cost to the military of making a woman a man or making a man a woman: (from https://www.livescience.com/39170-ho...fographic.html) "The cost for female-to-male reassignment can be more than $50,000. The cost for male-to-female reassignment can be $7,000 to $24,000. Between 100 to 500 gender-reassignment procedures are conducted in the United States each year." That is just the cost of the operation; not the cost of counseling and follow up medical treatment. Do we want our taxpayers to pay out for these procedures and do we want our military to be staffed with people that are not even sure if they are men or women (at the very least they do not want to have to work to pay for this procedure).

Then you have the last portion of that quote "Between 100 to 500 gender-reassignment procedures are conducted in the United States each year" which clearly demonstrates that this is not an issue that will turn votes to win an election (simply not enough are affected).

This is not an issue about discrimination. It is an issue of who owns the problem and who should flip the bills. It is also an issue of problems in the rank an file and do we need anything other than one unified, coordinated, fighting machine?

They are going to win so much they will be tired of winning
Really? Affecting Americans the most?

I think the one thing affecting Americans the most is the threat of Islamic terrorism. No. 2 might be the ongoing illegal alien problem; i.e., "sanctuary" cities, which are in violation of the Constitution.

North Korea is a huge threat, and something is going to have to be done about it.

The Democrats have become obsessed with Russia, and it's now at the point of absurdity. Moreover, the longer this so-called "investigation" goes on, the more we learn about Democrat corruption and "collusion" with foreign operatives. There is a double standard. They aren't being investigated for their corruption, but that may soon change. We have learned recently of the Democrat IT guy is under investigation and has been arrested.

Not looking good for Democrats lately.
