President Trump Is A Disaster For Transgender People

Within the United States’ government en masse, there are many legal systems that contribute to the uneven distribution of life chances and thus require dismantling and radical reconstruction. These include the criminal justice system, the education system, the prison system (also called the prison industrial complex), the social welfare system, the immigration system, the housing system, the healthcare system, and the U.S. military. Each of these legal and political systems in some way targets a specific population within the United States, very often transgender and gender-variant people, and directly reduces that population’s life chances. This is the issue that Spade seeks to amend when he proposes the move toward a critical trans politics.

The Obama Administration as well as the media began to challenge these attacks, often when presented the facts lawmakers would retreat from the attack, however once in the political lexicon, the attack no matter how erroneous or false would continue to be repeated. This allowed Republicans to win a narrow victory in 2016 bringing Donald Trump to the Presidency. Trump a political outsider campaigned on many controversial items, from border control, to health care and all the while insisting that he could do the same thing with less complications. After winning the election Trump began pushing his agenda by offering a 33-page bill known American Health care Act was designed to repeal and replace the Patients Protection and Affordable Care Act.

With the upcoming election for president, we have a chance at having Obama Care repealed. The presumptive Republican party nominee, Donald Trump, has a plan in place that will be ready to take action if he is elected president. If he is elected president, Congress will be asked to immediately repeal Obama Care. Together Donald Trump and Congress will then work together to implement a series of reforms that follow free market principles. The reforms will restore economic freedom to everyone in this country.

As part of a comprehensive reform effort, the Trump Administration will work to restore faith in government and economic liberty.

Repeal the ACA and introduce several new policies – According to the Congressional budget office (CBO), Trump’s plan will increase the number of net uninsured individuals by 21 million.

One of President Trump's campaign main goal that could have been the determining factor in his election this last November, was to revoke Obamacare and fully substitute it with a Republican version. This version nicknamed “Trumpcare” would supposedly offer insurance for everyone at a much lower price, but as we saw in the first draft of President

Healthcare is the United States has had a long and turbulent history. Beginning with Medicare during the Johnson administration to Reagan’s reductions on most government agencies, health care has been a polarizing topic in the modern age of politics. A young senator from Illinois, Barak Obama, ran in the 2008 Democratic primaries with plans to revitalize the United States health care. Eight years later the Affordable Care Act (ACA) or Obamacare, is a trademark of the 44th presidents time in office. Receiving praise and criticism from both sides of the aisle, the topic became a debate topic throughout the election. Throughout President Trump’s campaign he had promised a full repeal and replacement of ACA by his 100th day in office, April

After reading chapter 3: "Prejudice and Discriminations" and as well the article "Transgender African-Americans' Open Wound: ‘We're considered a Joke’”, I have a better understanding of the challenges that certain group undergo due to prejudices and discrimination that exist within their own racial group and other groups of our society. Although the LBGT community has made its social conditions a little more better, there is still those within their group that are even more marginalize, this is the case of a African-American transgender.

Ever since announcing his candidacy for the presidency, the now President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, emerged as an anti-Obama regime leader. He vowed that he would scrap off most of the changes that Obama had made when in the presidency (Rovner & Terhune). Some of this included the same-sex marriage legislation and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) which is popularly known as Obamacare. The Obamacare is a policy that had benefited a lot of people in the United States, especially those in the middle and lower class factions of the society. They managed to obtain insurance and were able to access medical care despite the increased costs in service provision. However, President Trump did not completely do away with the ACA but

Denniston (2016) asserts that if transgender rights are to subsist or to develop, it will be done principally through elucidation of current civil rights laws and not due to a complete and exhausting analysis of egalitarianism guaranteed in the Constitution. It will be because proponents of transgender right able to argue that the obtainable regulations and laws prohibition bigotry are based on sex that that will be enough to protect the rights of the transgender

For eight years, former President Barack Obama strived to get a health care for those who could not afford it, and that is when Obamacare was created. Now, our new President Donald Trump is looking to reform health care. In an article written by Lee and Luhby on CNN, they stated, “Within hours of taking the oath of office, President Donald Trump on Friday night signed an executive order aimed at trying to fulfill one of his most impassioned campaign promises: Rolling back Obamacare” (1). President Trump wanted to prevent civilians to use Obamacare which is also known as the Affordable Care Act.

President-Elect Trump issued a seven-point health care reform plan that is a preliminary version of the concept of what he would like to do. Furthermore, this eludes to Trump’s vision to, “…repeal and replace Obamacare with Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), work with Congress to create a patient-centered health care system that promotes choice, quality, and affordability, work with states to establish high-risk pools to ensure access to coverage for individuals who have not maintained continuous coverage, allow people to purchase insurance across state lines in all 50 states thus creating a dynamic market, require price transparency from all health care providers, remove barriers to enter into

Donald Trump made repealing and replacing Obamacare, a.k.a. the Affordable Care Act, a cornerstone of his presidential campaign. Yet, unlike some of his GOP rivals, the candidate pledged to preserve Medicaid and Medicare. So far, President Trump has stumbled on both promises. His first attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare failed in March because it didn 't appeal to both hardline conservatives and moderate Republicans. Now, Trump is pushing Congress to come to an agreement on a plan that could do just that.

President Donald John Trump, the new president elect of the United States of America during his election campaigns had expressed that Obamacare has been nothing but a hindrance and he wished to repeal it.

People with preexisting conditions will especially still be covered (Donald Trump open to

After one of the most grueling presidential races in American history, the populous candidate Donald Trump has been elected by the American people as our next president. While campaigning, one of the first things that Trump vowed to accomplish in office was to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act (donaldjtrump.com). Trump should have no trouble doing this with the support of both the Republican senate and the Republican House. The consequences of what exactly will be done is a constantly argued topic and the phrase “repeal and replace Obamacare” has become a sort of buzzword in the media.

In light of the recent election putting a man with questionable morality in the powerful seat of President, many in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community are fearful of the repercussions this will cause. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, “867 cases of hateful harassment or intimidation [were reported] in the United States in the 10 days after the November 8 election”, and swastikas adorned people’s cars and homes in angry graffiti, accompanying words such as “white power” and “fag”, “he she” and “die” (Yan). While the American legal system has come a long way in granting the homosexual community their natural rights, the present climate gives many a fear that things will go back to the way they were before, with homosexuals being oppressed and persecuted for simply loving who they love.
