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

    Because sending people who hate war to go to war is going to work out absolutely swimmingly, I’m sure. You definitely won’t have people constantly going AWOL or refusing orders or, god forbid, organizing as a unit after they’ve been given weapons and training to kill their superior officers and take the base on home soil for their own.

    These people are fucking morons asking for the worst possible outcomes.

      Unfortunately that’s the only outcome I see after conscription. It’s been a stressful month and maybe it’s just my bad mood, but I don’t see any path forward from conscription that doesn’t lead through open, violent civil war. I mean look how well training Mujahideen went, let’s just train American Liberals (who profess to hate guns) this time.
