Donald Trump Plays Anti-LGBTQ+ Military Video, Full Of ‘Full Metal Jacket’ Clips

Donald Trump needs a ‘Full Steel’ navy … enjoying a video eventually evening’s rally calling out Kamala Harris for wanting a “woke navy” — and enjoying clips from Stanley Kubrick‘s “Full Steel Jacket.”

The previous POTUS was in Coachella, California Saturday evening when he began speaking navy … and, he performed a video which is less complicated to observe than clarify.

The video — which Trump has since posted and pinned to the highest of his X account — exhibits a model of America’s navy run by him vs the navy he says “Comrade” Kamala Harris will run.

Then video then jumps forwards and backwards from clips of the film “Full Steel Jacket” to movies of alleged servicemembers in drag in addition to Rachel Levine, a transgender lady who serves within the US Public Well being Service Commissioned Corps in Biden‘s administration.

While not the first time he’s played it at a rally, Trump is clearly doubling and tripling down on the clip. In his X post from last night, he wrote in the caption, “WE WILL NOT HAVE A WOKE MILITARY!”

Basically, DJT’s point seems to be he wants the military to regain some sort of old school, macho-man disposition … and, there doesn’t seem to be a place in his version of the military for gay servicemen and women, at least ones who come out publicly or dress in drag.

The scenes he shows from the movie show abusive Gunnery Sergeant Hartman — played by late actor R. Lee Ermey — berating his cadets and getting them ready for war … trying to toughen them up in the flick.

Worth noting — and, spoiler here — one of his cadets, played by Vincent D’Onofrio, ends up murdering Hartman … so, it’s not a perfect analogy.

“Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was repealed back in 2010 under the Obama administration … allowing people in the military to come out if they so wished. The military has also added numerous diversity initiatives, especially since Biden came into office.
