A problem with Trump's statement here is it doesn't go nearly far enough and is a form of meeting the satanists half way. First, no one of any age should be permitted to injure themselves due to mental illness. There are sadly lots of people in institutions who have mental problems and want to hurt themselves, but they are restrained and attempts are made to resolve their issues, so no one of any age should be intentionally injured. Second, there need to be retro-active harsh punishment for anyone ("doctors", nurses, admins, etc) who participated in any of this. If we excuse this kind of evil, just stopping it (and saying "don't do that again") going forward won't send the necessary emotional message about what we refuse to tolerate as a civilized society. Third, we need a "warp-speed" effort to figure out what is causing these gender issues (e.g. endocrine disruptors) and eliminate it.
