Among the many questions that have been put to Trump following his Venezuelan military actions implementing his reinvented foreign policy (The “Don”roe Doctrine!?) that mimics Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, here’s one that I would like to add:
If additional military forces are required to accomplish your lofty goals of Making America Greedy Again, are you going to unilaterally, without seeking congressional approval, reinstitute the Selective Service (draft) to staff it?
I would hope no one in your “base” would salute THAT idea.
No need to worry, Mr. Lerman. If you hadn’t noticed, military recruitment is above target. They’ll join American patriots in the armed forces to Make America Great Again, Again, under our (yes, our) great President Trump. Not only that, we’ve graduated to asymmetric warfare, with manned and unmanned vehicles carrying weapons, nuclear and not. I would hope everyone would salute THAT achievement. Have a Trump-tastic day!
