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.
I’m not entirely sure about that. They fill their army with anti trump folk and there’s gonna be a lot of fragging
This implies that the administration is capable of seeing much past their nose
The Russian army does this. They sent Ukrainians to fight against ukrainians.
Yeah and they’re losing against tiny little Ukraine. Russia used to be a superpower!
Ya, and unless Americans do something about it, thats what well say about america, too.
Wait would that just be training and arming a potential rebellion? That makes no sense.
" That makes no sense"
So you agree it’s the most likely outcome from this regime.
Fuck.
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.
Will they brake my hand against a door if I try to complaint?

Rounding up all the Americans that trash talk them will cause revolution. Its also logistical nightmare. Conscription is something they can do, and nobody will know their selection process. The Russians used this tactic, and im sure trump would use it, if he needed a meat grinder. The US army doesnt work like the Russian one, but Trump is a dictator and everything will be becoming more like russia going forward.
They’ll probably send all the “bad people” that ice has already picked up off the streets.
They are building databases. They will not just allow you to defy them. You are speaking freely to me right now because their power hasn’t grown enough. But it will get there, since nothing is preventing it. All that is left to prevent it is the people and they are doing nothing.
If they draft near-revolutionary people they get access to military equipment and incleases likelihood of actual revolution. If you concentrate them then they can coalesce as a group. If you spread them out then a lot of units will be dragged down.
Using ICE to round up dissenters avoids the risk of arming the would-be revolutionaries with credible military equipment.
You assume they will hand you working weapons, and not just hand you a stick.
You assume they will train you in how to use military tactics, and not just point the real gun at you then order you to run at the enemy in that general direction over there, so they can see where the bullets are coming from.
If you try to surrender to those at the other end, you’ll get shot in the back.
If you somehow make it over alive, they’ll know the general area and bomb it anyway.
We can’t assume they allow us any advantages, and need to plan for the worst.
We can see Russia doing this already in Ukraine, using conscripts with little to no training.
Americans already have access to firearms.
They will not train them.
Yes, you will be shot if you surrender, or if you retreat. These conscripts will be meant to die.
Maybe you intended to respond to someone else. Because I think we’re in agreement.
