Caitlyn Jenner has slammed Donald Trump, after a series of tweets from the US President where he annonunced transgender people won't be allowed to serve in the military.

The move was a repeal of an order made by previous US President Barack Obama, which allowed transgenders into the army, navy or the air corps in the first place.

It's thought thousands of transgenders are in the military, and it's unclear what will happen to them.

Trump but it down to the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail.

The move have been criticised from many sections, including the rival Democrat Party, but it was Caitlyn's Jenner's response that got people talking.

She then made a blog post, where she went into detail on her stance, saying "The Pentagon has been working for years on a policy that will ensure that transgender people can serve openly in the military with the full support of their leadership.

"It has been thoroughly reviewed and vetted by the best military and medical experts in the country.

"There is absolutely no reason to undo all that work because President Trump decided to send a few tweets this morning."
