Donald Trump Pledges to “End Transgender Lunacy” on Day One as President

President-elect Donald Trump vowed on Sunday to swiftly address transgender policies and other issues upon taking office, as Republicans prepare to control Congress and the White House.

Speaking at a conservative event in Phoenix, Arizona, Trump promised to “stop the transgender lunacy” on his first day in office. He outlined plans to sign executive orders banning transgender individuals from the military and restricting their involvement in schools, sports, and other public domains.

“It will be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female,” Trump declared, emphasizing his commitment to what he described as “protecting women’s sports.”

Trump also addressed immigration and international policy, vowing immediate action to curb migrant crime and designate drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. Additionally, he reiterated his intention to reassert U.S. control over the Panama Canal, criticizing Panamanian authorities for what he deemed unfair treatment.

On the global stage, the president-elect pledged to end the war in Ukraine, stabilize the Middle East, and prevent World War III. While Trump offered sweeping promises, he did not elaborate on specific strategies to achieve these goals.

During the speech, Trump painted a stark picture of the previous four years under President Joe Biden, promising a new era of “peace, prosperity, and national greatness” following his January 20 inauguration.

“The golden age of America is upon us,” Trump declared, signaling an aggressive agenda for his second term.

The remarks come as transgender issues remain a flashpoint in U.S. politics, with states enacting conflicting policies on gender-affirming care and education. Meanwhile, Congress recently passed a defense budget restricting funding for certain transgender-related medical treatments.

Trump’s speech also revived his first-term rhetoric on Mexican drug cartels, promising the largest deportation operation in U.S. history and a crackdown on criminal networks. However, his previous attempts to label cartels as terrorist organizations were met with resistance from Mexican leadership.
