What’s good for the goose…
Almost all men who are aged between 18 and 25 who live in the U.S. are required to register for Selective Service, though service itself is voluntary.
what? 🤣 🤷
Whether you volunteer or not will be listed on your id documents of course.
required and voluntary in same sentence
Bone spurs about to become generational.
Yes I’m sure this will go well, call for a draft. Barron will absolutely be placed on the front lines, totally won’t be placed somewhere very safe at all times. You definitely will not be achieving public support for a draft.
It’s like you people don’t even see what you’re doing.
And not some logistics job. Something difficult, sucky, and dangerous. If the powerful will send our sons to die, they should send theirs as well
Mine sweeper?
Kropp believes the leaders of each country should fight each other in an arena to settle the war; the “wrong” people currently do the fighting.

“When war begins, politicians give weapons, the rich give bread, and the poor give their sons. When war ends, politicians shake hands, the rich raise the price of bread, and the poor search for the graves of their sons.”
this. 💯
Let’s send Trump as the pilot of this:
Does anyone think trump loves his kids? They are objects like the rest of us. They are only slightly more regarded because they are worth more to him as props. But it isn’t love or anything like it.
The world is exploding. All the nuclear reactors are melting down and the volcanoes are blanketing the world in liquid hot magma. The satellites are falling from the skies left and right. A 3 mile wide tornado has already destroyed and picked up the contents of a barbed wire factory, razor blade factory, and a cinnamon toothpick factory. Tsunamis are making landfall and striking the Midwest. An earthquake creates a fiery chasm so huge that it swallows Joliet and Romeoville. Every nuclear bomb detonated without even launching. A Fiat 500 sized piece of hail just smashed into the oval office.
Trump and Barron are making a run for the escape rocket to the bunker on the moon as the ceiling is falling apart above them and the walls around them. Barron smacks right into a closing shuttle door and falls on his ass. Getting back up he looks through the window and sees the two chairs in the rocket. His father is buckling himself in. Already buckled in next to him is an Al Franken size bag of Big Macs. Through the intercom Barron is reminded that he should be lucky to have spent his final hour with his father. His heart is as cold as that bag of Big Macs.
I may have exaggerated a thing or two but I’m just trying to use words to paint a picture.
Here is one in the trump loves his kids group. Oh my bad, its just a Al Franken sized bag. Not Al Franken. Some fates are worse than death.
I think we should go a step further. All politicians of significant office, should automatically have their children conscripted and participate on the front lines of the war. That would make them a bit more circumspect of what they are asking from the rank and file.
And the kids shouldn’t go in as officers in a cushy office job far from the front. Send their asses close to where the fighting is, even if it’s not a combat role.
I figure the pampered ones could do as clerks, janitorial staff, cargo movers, and so forth. Just being close to the reaper’s scythe should be good enough to make the elite feel uneasy about their spawn’s future.
That should just be a basic rule for any politician in any country.
You send people to war? Your kids first. Guy or girl, I don’t care, I support feminism everywhere so here too.
I sincerely doubt the ghouls love their children as much as they love power. This policy would deter support of Ukraine but not deter support of Israel.
At least it could start solving our political dynasty problem.
Even if he were to be drafted do you think that he’d see an hour on the front line?
Meet Captain Bone Spurs, officer in charge of NFT development in New York. He knows how to computer.
The Augustus to our modern day Caeser.
Don’t you mean Caesarion? He’s not been installed on the throne yet
Yeah but Melania is no Cleopatra
If they start drafting kids, that will be the end of whatever support he has left among boomers. Boomers fought in Vietnam, many of them were drafted, and voted for “no new wars”. Trump is notoriously a draft dodger, which they chose to ignore but, I think they won’t be ignoring that anymore.
Boomers fought in Vietnam, many of them were drafted, and voted for “no new wars”.
Did you sleep through the '00s?
That would take a level of moral consistency the boomers frankly don’t possess.
You’d be surprised. Boomers on average are more liberal than Gen Xers. Most forget a lot of them were hippies too and I guarantee the hippies lived longer than the more conservative ones.
were more liberal, maybe. are more liberal, nope.
Those age bands don’t line up well enough to generational cohorts to draw any specific conclusions IMO, other than perhaps it is unfair to paint any generation with a single brush (which, admittedly I did earlier.)
All this data does is prove what we already know: white, boomer aged, uneducated men support peDono in higher numbers.
He’s nineteen.
Boomers are okay with that,
Agreed much to old to fuck at that age In boomer eyes
I get that this is a farce, but I have no doubts that if it would make the Epstein stories go away for a while, Trump would absolutely send at least one of his sons to die in a completely unnecessary conflict.
Any child except Ivanka, and she’s getting a little old for him.
piece of jazz
He’s ineligible on the grounds of height.
The corpsman on my sub, who had been in for 15 years and done two tours in the sandbox during our first go-round in the 90s, was 6’7".
If he can get a waiver to patch bullet wounds in the desert and then cram his Jolly Green Giant ass into a submarine, then Orange Lite can certainly join up.
Limit is 6’8"
Baron is supposedly 6’9", which is really convenient.
About that; dad musta been a tall pool boy.
You only get to say that until you’ve seen how many times he’s clipped his head on a doorframe.
Ill make an exception for him
Chop his legs off.
I was thinking lowes has plenty of tools that would shorten him up real quick.
I’m sure that family could find a way to get him onto the front lines. They’ve broken so many rules before, what’s one more?
Trump’s grandfather left Germany to escape the draft. Fred Trump got WW2 deferments and Donnie’s ‘bone spurs’ are, of course, the stuff of legends.
Barron has a legitimate deferment, so unless Tiffany joins, the family will be five generations without service.
And good for them.
Why ‘good for them?’
They were all happy to let other folks go and get killed.
Everyone should avoid war.
So, people in Gaza shouldn’t fight back?
Because they should avoid war?
What about just another showmanship shitshow where he does draft his kid only for him to be some person in charge because that’s how nepotism works. Then he bankrupts the army or something more in line with father.
Exactly. He’d end up with a cushy position and Trump would never stop yapping about his sons great service to the country
