I say send the illegals first. If they serve minimum 2 years with honor and live through it they get citizenship
The way wars are now, I say serve 5 years. I would take two and be happy though.

A lot of our military personnel are now in Poland. That's concerning.

Some ex NATO honcho was on CNN this morning saying that Ukraine will be brought into NATO before too long.
This ^^^^ is how Ukraine is going to get the 300-500k troops they need to fight the Russians.

No, you almost certainly aren't, and no you almost certainly wouldn't.
You'd claim that whatever the situation was, it was corrupt so that you had an excuse for not fighting. I see this populist drivel on here almost every day. But I know what simple cowardice looks like.
But it doesn't matter—y'all are getting worked up over nothing.
Technically LBJ is the last Democratic POTUS to start a new war, but really Vietnam started under Truman, so you really have to go back to 1955—before the vast majority of the people on this board were alive—to find a Democrat who started a new war.
And the Democrats have only become less likely to do so over time.
Anybody who thinks that Biden is going to put boots on the ground in Ukraine is kind of a moron. I don't care what somebody's silly conspiracy theory Monkeypox website says.
Now, if Ukraine falls and Russia doesn't stop there, yeah, then we'll have no choice. There will be boots on the ground then no matter who is POTUS. Biden, Trump, or anybody else.
That's why the adults have been continuing to send aid to Ukraine while all of you populist coward moron children have been howling about it because you've been taught to by Huckster Carlson.
It has nothing to do with "fighting for Ukraine." It has to do with not having to send Americans to fight. It IS America First. But you have to be a step or two up from a rank simpleton to be able to understand that, I suppose.

How would a draft even work in 2024 America?
These days, the services cant make their recruitment numbers anymore. Gen z isn't interested in a military career.
So say they start the draft to force them to sign up. It used to rely on patriotism and social peer pressure to get kids into it. No one is patriotic about this administration. Neither the left or the right or the middle would support a draft.
Unlike in previous decades, the Archie Bunker types wont rat out the draft dodgers. Instead, they would help them dodge the draft these days.
In fact, I could see the Feds being forced to go door to door to round up kids to fight. And we all know what would happen in that situation. Anarchy and societal collapse.
The only way a draft would work is if they made a deal with the illegals. Citizenship in exchange for military service.
I think I just answered my own question.

Just to add to your exact correct post, I would say that’s when the new American citizens remove the rights of the old American citizens. By force.

This would be a disaster for our nation. It would cause us to lose a war then be packed full of "new citizens" that invaded our country and have no regard for it at all. It's tantamount to treason.
The language barrier alone would constitute a disaster.

You don’t care? Let me ask you, why do you think that every statesman who led the foreign policy of the leading seafaring nation has cared? From the days of William Pitt, every foreign policy leader has worked to prevent anyone from getting European hegemony; has worked carefully to keep the balance of powers.
Three times the balance of power was allowed to escape and each time led to massive pan-European war. The lesson the maritime trading nations have learned is that when we see a Napoleon, a Bismarck, a Hiltler, or a Stalin we must stop them in their infancy or pay a much larger price later.
We have a dangerous problem with China right now. We MUST keep Russia from turning into another.

And by supporting a losing cause in Ukraine that we fomented in the first place, that Russia will eventually win, we ARE helping embolden Russia.
Good job ;)
