Nothing more American than a draft dodger sending others to die.
Calling it now:
Trump is going to sign an EO to bring back the draft, and congress is just gonna let it happen.
And it this is anything like Russia and Ukraine, and it is (the US being Russia), hell expand the age of the draft as the war gets worse and worse.
One problem. Russians were all thin due to being too poor to afford food.
Americans can't go to war because they're too busy using mobility scooters and starring in "my 600 lbs life" at age 22.
Send them to mandatory ozempic camps, done
