"Barbarisms by Barbaras, With pointed heels"

Money for war, but can’t feed the poor.

I didn't know they stacked shit that high.

Is he actually 6’9” or is he 6’9” the way his father is 6’3”? I wouldn’t be surprised if they just tell everyone he’s 6’9” to get him out of it if it comes down to a draft.

The Marines don't have a max height I believe.

If you're down with crayons you're good.

I know you meant Heel Spurs, but now I'm imagining Trump taking off his shoes for a nap and a bunch of nasty mushrooms springing forth.

True re: Don the Con but...

Clerk, logistics, cook, etc.

There's a tonne of jobs he could do while being tall. While it may be a legitimate reason for not serving, it seems frivolous (especially considering the context).

Honestly with this I have doubts he's the full 6'9". Unless we have pics of him having to duck to enter rooms or something (a friend of mine is that tall, the standard American door frame is shorter than that). Anything above 6'6" is indistinguishable to most people and just registers as "holy fuck you're tall". And so yeah a "fucking hell you're tall" guy being given an extra inch or two on documents to avoid a draft is just extremely believable to me, especially when his dad is a draft dodge4 planning on starting a war.

Anyways I have no evidence but that's my little conspiracy theory

*spurs

205.74 cm

That is tall. He's even taller than King of Spain. US will have a magnificently tall monarch one day.

Some folks inherit star-spangled eyes

They send you down to war

And when you ask 'em, "How much should we give?"

They only answer, "More, more, more"

Trump wants unrest so he can instate martial law and begin his reign of terror in earnest.

Oh, yeah, they won't do anything stupid, like starting a wildly unpopular war that will spike gas prices during a midterm campaign that is already about high prices. /S

They already KNOW they'll get clobbered at the Midterms, so announcing a Draft will be the perfect punishment. Vote against MAGA? We'll just kill your children.

A draft will be a mass resistance event, and they love the chaos. That's exactly the reason they WILL do it.

@bearboiblake @MuskyMelon not boots on the ground but videogames in cubicles. a drone war. they'd even externalize costs by SELLING the game on Steam or PS. Incels and groypers would love it. Nazi paradise: all the violence, no personal risk.

If their isn't "mass unrest" already, nothing will cause it

Anti-semitic?

Not true. Plenty of young people enlist for many reasons.. Some enlist for patriotism, some for the benefits, some for lack of options/poor employment options. People who don't enlist usually have better options.. or a least more choices. Military enlistment is usually a pragmatic or desperate decision. People who choose not to are not anti-semitic which is a strange accusation. We are citizens of the US, not Israel... they have their own draft. I do not know why that would even be a consideration for a 17-19 year old in the US. They are not exactly readers or followers of current events-- I mean, if they were intellectuals, they would be attending a college. Most of the enlistees come from economically depressed regions that don't offer them a bright future.

Unfortunately, Don Jr. would fail one of the major physical tests... the drug test. He would be considered to be unqualified unless... perhaps.... he agrees to weekly witnessed piss tests.

Honestly the only perk of feudalism is that the princes would have to go to war. Unfortunately it was prone to make them worse leaders by way of trauma, but hey, sometimes they died.

Life is hard and it seems like people are constantly fighting and dying around you from the moment you’re born. It’s all you know. Everyone around you is sick, destitute, and miserable. There are no jobs. You have no education. You know nothing but struggle and see no future for yourself.

The army is the only hand reaching out and offering to help pull you up, so you grab it.

I grew up in a very rural area. This describes the situation there decades ago.

I don't have exact numbers, but I would say something like 10-15% of my class actually went on to higher education. Probably less, and definitely less than that finished.

Very, very many went into some branch of the military. When the first war on Iraq started I figured that might be our generation's Vietnam and that many of my graduating class would be fodder for it. Luckily for them, that ended up not being the case.

In any case, songs like Born in the USA and Fortune Son really land pretty hard...

He may be smarter, which would be scary.

He is, he's also in bed with nazis.

Perhps it is not fair to say, but he actually looks evil to me.

I actually expect all males under 40 have to sign up for the draft and show up at recruiting centers. If you are overweight the government will take over production of glp-1 and force those over weight on it. They will profile your social media using some kind of palentir program to assess your risk to the government cause and possibly send those most against the government to the front lines under equipped.

Let's see if elections are suspended due to...terror

I expect it before the holidays, actually right before the midterms if not during the summer. He'll say we can't run elections now because of the threat this poses, then MAGA will start doing terrorist level shit at polling stations (which the FBI will initially lie and say is by Iranian extremists or smth) to reinforce that.
