I agree with you. Where I’m from (one of the most progressive countries on earth, which I largely admire) we have banned hormones for children. I have close friends and family members working with children both physically and mentally and what I hear from them has made me agree with this.

Ok, so Japan, Germany, Mexico, and England are out as allies because of past wars?
Trump is a buffoon, but I will take good relationships between countries over antagonistic ones.

I don’t know what you would want? Politicians and diplomats has to build relationships. Why create more enemies around the world?
