As an American, I'll support another foreign engagement when I see the sons and daughters of presidents and congressmen shipping off the the Ukraine. Until then, I can't support sending American boys and girls to die in yet another foreign war.
Any talk of U.S. involvement should cease until the American public sees AOC, Hunter Biden, and Donald Trump Jr. (or maybe Baron) in uniform and on the ground in the Ukraine.
- golemotron 5y agoHunter has been on the ground in Ukraine.
- tremon 5y agoWas he armed with a rifle or a briefcase?
- jessaustin 5y agoNot so much "armed" as "sleeping off a binge". He's also been "on the ground" in NYC, DC, Delaware, Nashville, etc.
- yonaguska 5y agoYep. I'm just waiting for our own border to be recognized before I'll support any foreign conflict. But we'll continue exploiting our neighboring southern countries for cheap wage cutting labor. We're promising a generation of people citizenship, but they'll be held in limbo and exploited.
- nonameiguess 5y agoHunter Biden and Donald Trump Jr. are above the maximum enlistment age for every service (though exceptions might be made for direct commission physicians if they happened to be licensed physicians). Barron is still a minor. I guess that leaves AOC, but it might be worth remembering a fair number of Congressional reps and Senators actually have served or even continue to serve in the Guard and Reserve. A much higher rate than the population at large. It's currently 19% for Congress and 7% for American adults in general.
- CapricornNoble 5y agoHunter Biden already has an Other-than-Honorable Discharge (IIRC) from the US Navy, because of his well-known drug problems. Age can be waiverable but I doubt that drug discharge can. Just some minor amplifying info to the thread.
- s1artibartfast 5y agoI'm sure an exception could be made
