Also that guy is white
I never thought I'd see a POTUS consider denaturalising US citizens as well so you'd hope they won't draft you but I wouldn't discount it. Cannon fodder is always necessary especially if you're not white or MAGA.
This scene was always hilarious because we thought it could never happen… But given everything that this administration has done so far, it seems more like a prediction…
Thought it could never happen? That sort of shit happened several times in past wars.

At least my death after I'm drafted in the wars over oil will raise the share price of the Military-Industrial Complex shareholders, bless them 🙏🙏🙏
RTX and General Dynamics thank you for your service. 🙏
What if they need drone operators? Our fat 40 year old asses have been playing games since the late 80s, and those skills are finally in demand.
And they'll use a bunch of teens straight out of high-school that still have youthful reaction times instead.
Sorry bro, they just going to import a bunch of Korean esport pros and make us all look like slobs.

Americans are not unhealthy due to lack of affordable healthcare. They are unhealthy due to the availability of cheap, heavily processed, high calorie foods.

No one thinks there would be a draft. But 40 isn't a cut off, nor would weight excuse you. The U.S. military has enough members to fight in 10 Vietnams at once.
(Also war has changed, so maybe 100 Vietnams at once)
The U.S. military has enough members to fight in 10 Vietnams at once.
And loose 10 Vietnams at once.
Im not talking about weight but okay its w/e
You posted an image of an obese person talking about being draft worthy. Are you lying now or when you posted it?

Still gets drafted...
...After the administration takes away healthcare for service people.
Now I have to worry about my son being drafted.
If they're old enough for the draft they're old enough to go do postsecondary ed or Wwoofing somewhere in Europe for a few years.
just take his place ~(/s)~
You know what I'm thinking, I applaud that the Gen Z are into fitness and wellness. But they are influenced by the right through social media, and the right are probably conditioning kids so that they will be fit for a future war. It sounds conspiratorial, but the Heritage Foundation is already dictating social policies in America and beyond. Steve Bannon is their dark missionary by evangelising abroad and wanting the EU to fragment.
