Trump’s Stance on Transgender Issues
During a recent event in Phoenix, Arizona, the president-elect reaffirmed his commitment to addressing transgender issues, stating that he will sign executive orders to prevent child sexual mutilation and remove transgender individuals from the military and elementary and secondary schools.
He also emphasized the importance of maintaining separate sports teams for men and women, stating that it will be official government policy to recognize only two genders, male and female.
Impact on American Politics
Trump’s stance on transgender issues has sparked intense debate in American politics, with Democratic and Republican states adopting opposing policies on medical treatment and access to relevant literature in public and school libraries.
The president-elect’s return to the White House is expected to usher in a new era, with significant changes to the country’s policies and direction.
Designating Mexican Cartels as Terrorist Organizations
Trump has announced plans to designate Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, a move that was previously considered during his first term but ultimately shelved.
The current Mexican president has expressed opposition to this designation, citing concerns about foreign incursion and threats to national sovereignty.
Deportation and Immigration Policies
Trump has reiterated his commitment to launching the largest deportation operation in US history, targeting migrants who are in the country illegally.
Dispute over the Panama Canal
The president-elect has expressed dissatisfaction with the current operation of the Panama Canal, stating that the Panamanians have not treated the US fairly.
He has threatened to demand the return of the canal to the US if Panama cannot ensure safe, efficient, and reliable operation.
The Panamanian president has responded by asserting the country’s ownership of the canal and its adjacent areas, citing the 1977 agreement signed by President Jimmy Carter.
