Last month, President Trump tweeted that he did not think transgenders should be allowed in the military. A month later, he formalized that idea and in response, the ACLU has sued Trump on behalf of several transgender military people, saying his ban violates the equal protection and due process clauses of the Constitution.

While the ACLU may win their case, especially utilizing the 14th Amendment, which is often the basis of many decisions regarding discrimination, that doesn’t mean reversing the ban is also a good idea.
