The US air force is denying early retirement to all transgender service members with 15-18 years of military service, opting instead to force them out with no retirement benefits
This is not supporting the troops. But Republicans are apparently too stupid and blinded by hatred to see it.
Supporting the troops is absolving their wire crimes.

Fuck your troops
I think you meant war crimes. I’m not American and not advocating the knee-jerk American “support our troops” mentality. But if you’re going to be a Republican politician who goes on and on about supporting the troops, you’re a hypocrite if you also systematically mistreat and undermine them.
