In a stunning admission, Leavitt told Bartiromo that mandatory conscription – not seen since the Vietnam War – had not been ruled out by her boss.

    If there is conscription, they’re going to use their social media data from meta and twitter, and any way they can, to select those who are most vocal about being against Trump, so that they die first, maga are happy because they dont go to war, and see trump sticking it to the libs. Meanwhile there are fewer libs to vote against him and fight back.

    In fact, they’ll probably start by sending off those in swing districts, and may even let them vote abroad woth mail-in votes they intentionally dont deliver and cant be sued for doing so.

        " That makes no sense"

        So you agree it’s the most likely outcome from this regime.

        The russians do this. They wont be training you. They will wait with guns, give you a gun, and send you to kill or be killed, and if you dont, they shoot you. If you retreat, they shoot you. If you turn around and shoot back, they shoot you.

        They aren’t going to send you there to be effective. You will be meant to die. But this firing squad will reveal information about the enemy when it kills you.

      Wait they’re going to give us all weapons? And training! And they’re starting some sort of big ass war?

      Y’all have fun, I’m old and my back is broken with lots of bone spurs. I’ll like a pea shooter though. I’m going to setup some chickens in the backyard and I gotta fend off some foxen.

      If my back was good, I’d be out there, but this is my daily pain I gotta deal with.

        Not training. They aren’t going to send you there to kill. They know you might have terrible aim on purpose and so on. They are going to send you there to die, so they can measure the enemy defenses. You will be forced to kill or be killed. If you are killed thats good for them. If you kill, thats good for them. You are disposable. Thats why you wont have rights, either.

        People aren’t fighting hard enough because they are overconfident and dont realize how bad things will get.

      I’m not entirely sure about that. They fill their army with anti trump folk and there’s gonna be a lot of fragging
