Definitely! Send ICE over there, too.

Gravy Seals! Front and center!

Best idea I've heard in the last 50 years . . . Let's Go Barron T. and Company!

Ernie Johnston's avatar

Barron Trump First! And every child of fighting age from the rest of his Administration!

And if females are to be drafted...he has a granddaughter that will fit right in.

Only not Mary's daughter. We like her!

Heather's avatar

Pretty sure she meant Kai, Junior's snotnosed brat.

Sadly though, as vindictive as trump is, he would probably take mary's to the front lines himself. I agree i like Mary.

$1,000,000,000 per day in borrowed money to fund Trump's Epstein files distraction in Iran.

Israel and Saudi Arabia are high-fiving over their great bargain! A couple billion funneled to the crooked Trumps and Banana-Republican politicians, and America will fight their wars for them, borrow all of the money necessary to do so, and throw in as many dead and wounded American soldiers as necessary- free of charge!

This also provides a great distraction for Trump's lawless corruption, incompetence, chaotic mismanagement, and destruction of America's global alliances at the behest of his other best buddy (besides Jeffrey Epstein), Vladimir Putin. None of this could be possible without MAGA or the Republican Party, so be sure to thank them as you fill your tank, pay your taxes, or send your children (Trump's "losers and suckers") off to war!

This is absolutely disgusting. Support for this war proves one thing: you are **not** human. Sorry, it's just been a long life of atrocities in my name. Never again.

I couldn't agree with Dean more strongly:

**"Well, if there is a draft, it should be Draft MAGA first. They elected Trump. They support his war. Now go fight and die for him."**

You scum bags own this as well as the forever fallout it will surely bring.

Dean, I agree with everything you say except that if gas prices were $3.50 here in California, they'd be lower than they've been in decades. We're lucky if our prices are under $5.00. Three fifty seems amazing to me.

Anne Fletcher-Jones's avatar

OMG, really? I’d no idea it was that bad. I left in 2022 but still have in-laws living there and I worry about them.

Paula B.'s avatar

I just looked up the prices. Some sources actually have gas below $4 much later than I remember, i.e., around 2020, but I live in a suburb of LA, and they're very high here. (I think they went down during the COVID lockdown because no one was going anywhere.) Apparently the reason is that they use a special blend here and they add extra tax. However, I was out yesterday and the prices I saw were generally under $5, although one station that's always higher than the rest was charging prices over that. I was surprised that they weren't higher. But yes, our prices are always higher than the average.

Anne Fletcher-Jones's avatar

I lived down in the desert, but gave a sister-in-law in San Diego and my niece-in-law and her husband in the greater LA area. I don’t remember what gas prices were like during the pandemic because I was no longer driving—my late husband did all that—but after he died in late 2020, I had to relearn but still stayed off the roads as much as I could.

Anne, that took courage. Especially while grieving. Mine just passed and I am dealing with all that grief and reorganizing my life. It's rough. Holding you in the Light.

Sharon C Storm's avatar

I’m keeping you in my prayers, Clair. My son in law died about a year and a half ago, and I’ve been my daughter’s support system, along with her siblings. We are all helping each other. I hope you can manage, but grief hits everyone differently. I hope you find some peace soon.

Paula B.'s avatar

I'm very sorry to hear about your son-in-law, Sharon. Profound condolences.

Paula B.'s avatar

I'm very sorry to hear that, Claire. My profound condolences.

Sharon C Storm's avatar

Thank you, Paula. He was only 62, it was a shock.

Robot Bender's avatar

A month or so ago, E85 was at $1.99/gal at the budget stations. Now it's near $3/gal and jumping daily. (We're a major gas and petroleum pipeline hub. Gas tends to be cheaper than average here). That jump happened since the war began.

Paula B.'s avatar

That's terrible! I'm very sorry to hear that.

Trump family members have a long history of draft dodgers. Grandpa Trump fled Germany to avoid the military. Donald famously faked bone spurs to avoid the military draft for the Vietnam war. Now his children have "genetically acquired " bone spurs?! This family is not patriotic, they are cowards and grifters who mock war wounded and POWs, calling them suckers. They are not patriotic, they're traitors, cowards and criminals. My dad, uncles and I served in the military, as patriots. My family and I lost loved ones and friends. WAR IS HELL! The national defense authorization act passed in December by the president, made the voluntary selective service system, automatic. This will make a draft much easier. Bet there are only minorities and poor whites who will be on the front lines, like every other war.

Claire Read, PhD's avatar

They are users and have been since old man tRump fled Germany to avoid war service. Now they pal around with South African Neo-Nazis. The only exception I know of, living that is, is Mary Trump. She grew into who she is through all the suffering good old Donald subjected his brother and his brother's family to. My dad and uncles served in the wars as well and were never the same afterwards. You are right about who will serve. Gosh. what have we become and in such a short time?

Yes🎯💥💪‼️

That makes you as cavalier about troop deaths as Trump, Dean. Something like 10-15% of the country is rural, yet they account for nearly 45% of the troops. There's no serious employment opportunity out in the sticks, so military service looks like a good job. It's the ultimate in class warfare and I don't think anybody should be stuck fighting this idiotic war of choice.

Anne Fletcher-Jones's avatar

That is a very good point. There won’t be any winners from this.

Charlie's avatar

How does this make Dean cavalier about troop deaths? Anyone who suggests that there are not going to be casualties from a military operation of this sort is delusional. And in fact we've already had at least 8. Trump is callous about this because he is callous about everything! Yes, the Military is a way up and out for all kinds of people rural and urban. It has always been the case, when there is not a draft.

Claire Read, PhD's avatar

Put that way, I totally agree. There was no need for this war except to do Israel's bidding and to try to deflect attention away from the Epstein mess. And help Russia and China's interests. What else?

Rob and Diana's avatar

When I swore an oath to the U.S. Constitution, taking fire, being targeted and hand to hand was always a possibility and many times obligatory during my career.

MAGA men and women shouldn't wait until they are drafted. Being the patriotic All American lovers of all things Trump and MAGA. They should be lining up to enlist at the closest recruiting station, chanting, "Send me in Donald." You'll have to put away your combat computer games and actually stare down the barrels of living breathing human beings. Not to worry, if you hear the wiz then the boom and no pain, you're OK. Go get-um. No, you can't restart the game once started.

Elizabeth K. Baker's avatar

Barron and his brothers and ICE should be first to go and old bone spurs himself should go have a meal with the troops boots on the ground.

Anne Fletcher-Jones's avatar

Here’s how to get Kegsbreath to draft only MAGATs: tell him the libs are all weak little wusses who would just mess things up, while the brave and manly MAGATS are the real “war fighters”. Besides, since his lot are billing this as a religious war, in fact Armageddon or the rapture, they might even forbid any libs from joining up. Either way, we’d be rid of some them, at least for the duration of the war.😁😁😁😁😁

Pamela Fender's avatar

Dean, you are so good. I agree with you completely.

Who the hell wants to pay for this illegal war?

Claire Read, PhD's avatar

Best idea I've heard all year!

Diane Lee's avatar

Dean, you're right, but it will never happen. Those bastards will continue to sit back on their ignorant asses while other innocent people pay the severe price for the orange scourge's criminal enterprise. We're in a no-win situation with that vile bastard. 🤬
