Als het aan Donald Trump ligt, mogen er geen transgenders meer dienen in het Amerikaanse leger. Dat maakte hij duidelijk in een reeks tweets, die indruisen tegen een wet die voormalig president Barack Obama doorvoerde om een versoepelingproces in gang te zetten. Natuurlijk kon het niet anders of Hollywood reageerde op deze beslissing. Een greep uit de tweets.

History shall record that you are not only the stupidest, most incompetent president ever, but also the cruelest and pettiest. #Shame pic.twitter.com/8R4jVOIYmd

Waiting for @MerriamWebster to give us the definition of "asshole" today.

Yo @IvankaTrump, you're disgusting. You should meet some of the brave trans servicemembers you're hurting. Do a USO tour. Talk to families. https://t.co/ZhSlgKzDff

We should be grateful to the people who wish to serve, not turn our backs on them. Banning transgender people is hurtful, baseless and wrong

I grew up in a military w/ LGBT people serving in the shadows. We can't let DT turn back the clock on our brave, trans soldiers. #RISEUP
