I doubt many would show up for a draft. People don’t bleed red white and blue anymore.

Exactly.

Politicians have made it this way.

Pick the ones with the Ukie flag on their Facebook first.

They would be the last people to get involved in a real conflict.

It's all virtue signaling to impress others.

No one is showing up because its not your war

Oh wait, maybe it is (in secret)

I genuinely feel sorry for the American folk who have Washington as their leaders

Do it, fagot. Have a draft. No one will obey and it'll be too costly to enforce, and you might even kick off a civil war. At the very least a national divorce.

An actual draft would require an act of congress. This is highly unlikely as no Representative or Senator will jeopardize their re-election chances over a draft.

if they convince the American people there is a threat then they will jump in line to sign up, they wont need to draft.

There will never be another draft. This generation simply wouldn’t go. But there is also never a need for a draft you can always pay more and get more soldiers basic economics.

Nope. Right wing, god fearing, flag waving volunteers are a thing of the past. The US government has successfully alienated its traditional supporters.

Maybe the laptop intelligentsia and Starbucks neckbeards are gonna turn out to be hardcore operators but it's not where I'm placing my chips.
