Unfortunately this does miss the mark of the Critical Sex Theory aspect, which is just as bad if not worse than the race element. Trump is also trying to go down the "anti-racist" path which is not unexpected, but it does little to resist the overall narrative. It does help more people become aware of the issue though.

All types of Critical Theory and cultural marxism should be under fire, not just the racial elements. Very good on him for applying this to more than just the Government though. No idea how well it will stand in practice. I'm sure people will try to weasel their way around it.

He could sign another to update the previous ones to include critical sex theory in the government and contractor ban.

Here are the tweets he made so I do stand corrected. It's very much a push in the right direction. If he gets a full second term I hope he continues to weed out this invasive ideology.

I heard he is also directing the DOJ to investigate if those trainings are a violation of Title VII of the Civil Right Act, which if that gets rolled out could sink the entire practice in America.

Good. It’s the worst kind of snake oil.

It's a shame he's waited until 40 days before the election to do this. The people who know about this shit that he'd be appealing to were already voting for him. And by exec order, if he were to somehow lose, it'll be turned over first thing. And don't tell me the courts set a precedent earlier this year that a president can't just overturn an exec order. You should know by now that the legal system only applies to one side of the aisle

This isn't for votes. As you say, everyone knowledgeable and on board with this is already voting for him anyhow. He undoubtedly has bigger plans but is hedging with action now in case a lost or stolen election occurs, and he can't do more later.

But he had 4 years to take action. I completely understand why people get blackpilled over this stuff.

Still voting Pmurt tho

He didn't realize what he was up against for 4 years, and he is still grossly underestimating the scale of the problem from outside appearances.

still voting for orange Hitler

Didn't he run to "drain the swamp" and "fight the deep state"? What did Cheeto Mussolini think those were if he was so grossly uninformed?

Still think he's the best president we've had in my lifetime, but there's always room to be better. The Tangerine Terror is going to get my vote again. Concerned about who runs in 2024 though

Likely that random Hawaii judges would have the power to stop his orders, and that half the nation would be willfully insubordinate and he had no legal recourse to straight fire them.

Its one thing to fight the swamp, its another to have to fight near every single position of power in the nation.

He thought he could come in like a CEO and clean house. He didn't realize the swamp can actively fight back the way it does, or that it is bigger than DC and includes the universities and msm and tech and London and Berlin and Beijing and Addis Ababa and...

I agree, people don't really understand how your entire structure has to change when you can't fire someone who needs to be fired. Suddenly, you've got to either accept the loss in productivity, have massive weak-point sitting in your department looking for an opportunity to fuck you, you've got absolute poison in the work environment, transferring them to someone else is taken as an attack, promoting them out of the way could work but might be even worse and breeds a bad environment among your subordinates, etc.

That's just one bad person.

If you're doing this in the government, you're talking about whole bad departments, funded by massive bad organizations, and even attempts to constantly undermine you by allied (let alone enemy) powers.

And none of that is as bad as what Trump is probably dealing with on a daily basis. Early on in his presidency, it's clear dudes were playing cut-throat politics with his own staff and trying to control him through his cabinet. I'm not surprised he clamped down on the whole thing with some Marine General that he appointed to his cabinet to stop leaks.

It's probably a huge culture shock. Remember that the executive of Carls Jr. was on Trump's cabinet initially and he noped the fuck out because of how apparently crazy the whole situation was.
