Interesting premise.
Why then should they have lifted the age to 42 instead of 34 I wonder.
Must be because the economy is so piping hot.
Either that or all the ICE roles were taken already.

What difference does it make when Trump checks off all the same boxes and the outcome is the same
Democrats are the party of pedophiles CHECK
Democrats are lying, corrupt grifters CHECK
Democrats will destroy the economy CHECK
Democrats will take us to war CHECK
The only difference is the implosion under Trump is slower and more subtle than it prob would have been under Harris
That's because Trump fooled a lot of people...a wolf in sheep's clothing
I fell for it

42 is the new 34. What's wrong with that? It's still voluntary and if they raised draft age 42 so what that isn't that bad this isn’t 1940 people live a lot longer and are very capable in their 40's you act like that is retirement age get a life.

Or things will stabilize and we'll all float on alright. You don't know what's going to happen your just projecting the worse thing you can think of and screaming the sky is falling, get a grip things aren't that bad.

You lack foresight because you put all your hope, faith and trust in Trump
If I asked you a year ago, is this current scenario what you invisioned for America, if you were honest (which I doubt you'll be), I'm sure you'd say "no"
Let's see where we are 3 months from now
6 months from now
Another year...
This is just the beginning

Looks like your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear.
No, this isn’t what I expected but I'm not upset about it either. I still think we are in a better position then we were a year ago I just wish it was better. I agree let's see where we are in a few months I'm not trying to make any predictions either.
Shits going to happen.

Okay I’ll play.
This age group 34-42 is actually the first to not be better off than their folks in both health and economic forecasts over their lifespans.
So there is that. Also I don’t know that 42 is fighting age when you see Western Europe flooded with guys from Africa ranging in their twenties.
But okay. Screech some more about facts if ya want to.

Iran is hanging on against the assault and punching back. Getting hotter in Lebanon. A reasonable chance Iran will come out with a nuclear weapons test soon. Can see a few heads on this board exploding when that happens.
As for what else could end this war? The Iran military is too deep underground to be hit from the skies. Trump would of done it by now if he could. How US/Israel started this war, Russia/China has more support for Iran. Going to take years and millions for a ground invasion. Does Trump pull out the war card to cancel the election and keep the status quo?
Or does Israel fall after sustained pressure by more boots on the ground? The whole Middle East region looks divided with spot fires all over the place. Iran will stop when they want to, going to have to be some big changes somewhere before they do.
