Trump claimed he’s ordered hospitals to do ‘reverse surgery’ on trans kids, and there’s just not enough chinny reckon in the world
One of the accusations levelled by the Maga cult at people who haven’t drunk the orange Kool-Aid is that they’re suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome. If they want to see a true derangement syndrome, they should take a deep dive into the president’s comments on the trans community.
Under his leadership, trans individuals have been banned from enlisting in the armed forces, while ongoing legal battles have prevented some current trans service members from being removed, their gender-affirming healthcare is no longer provided.
Trump fans are now completely obsessed with the almost non-existent appearance of trans women in sports, while being incapable of naming any women who are involved in those sports.

In the Trump fantasy realm, he and his minions have repeatedly insisted that children have been secretly ‘transed’ at school.

However, the latest twist is that he has solved all this secret transitioning in schools by ordering the hospitals to reverse the surgery. That’ll be the surgery that has categorically never happened, of course, so it shouldn’t take them long.

The reactions were what you’d probably see in the dictionary under ‘chinny reckon’.
Let’s dive in.

Our OR is completely booked with trans reversal surgeries. We can't do anything else. People are dying of preventable diseases waiting in hallway beds while these trans reversal surgeries are happening. I just did 10 last night and I don't even do surgery. https://t.co/pVnhIvugJK

The President of the United States said that de-transitioning surgeries are being done on his personal orders and no one has paused for a moment to wonder if any rational person would say something so completely and feverishly crazy – because it's just part of the new normal.

This is THE most ridiculous, despicable lie ANY President has ever told Americans.
"hospitals now are doing reverse surgery" on trans kids, on his order.

Alex Cole summed up the thinking, if that’s what it is.
Trump doesn't need policy accomplishments when he can simply invent a crisis, defeat the crisis, and tell the audience he saved them from the crisis.
MAGAs are dumb af. https://t.co/swhncIP16X
