"President Trump on Thursday said he had asked Representative Elise Stefanik, Republican of New York, to stay in Congress rather than serve as ambassador to the United Nations, amid concern about the minuscule voting margin that Republicans hold in the House."
They're reading the room. Things must be changing there.
You don't have to be psychic to see the approval rating cliff Trump's falling off. He's actually insulated a bit by all of the Musk anger, but inflation is going to start growing quickly... and even those who have recently approved are gonna start jumping off. (Nate Silver numbers below)

The fact that Republicans won't even host town halls because they don't have answers for the stupidity is proof they know things aren't good.

There is no proposal to reinstate the draft in Project 2025.That rumor has been going around Facebook, TikTok, etc. since last autumn. There are proposed reforms meant to "improve military recruitment" including one that would require all students at federally funded schools (which can include some private schools) to complete the militaryâs entrance exam (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). It would not force them to enlist or involve a draft. Reinstating the draft would take an act of Congress, and as spineless as some of the members are, they still would not do that.
You really believe that 47 won't tempt a military conflict? After the DEI purges, our Military is swiss cheese, and not in the least due to lax communication security.
Act of Congress? Surely, Proclivz, you know that's never going to happen: King Henry IX is in charge now, not elections, or voters. There is no longer a rule of law or judiciary. These boys are going to plow forward until someone loses an eye.
"The exact sentence of Project 2025's "Mandate for Leadership 2025: The Conservative Promise" document, reads: "Improve military recruiters' access to secondary schools and require completion of the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) â the Military Entrance Examination â by All Students in Schools that receive Federal Funding." Project 2025 requires that all Public high school students take the ASVAB exam for entrance into the military, yet Private school students will be exempt.
Gee. I wonder why.
It's been widely circulated around The American Enterprise Institute, Americans for Prosperity, House Freedom Fund, and National Defense PAC that #47 and Hegseth (aka, WhiskeyLeaks) plan to implement it during a National Emergency. But surely Trump and his highly competent staff won't let that happen. Right?
who the f**k cares about the price of eggs still? That ship sailed, what is going on now is far more worthy of attention. Wait till the first of next month when Social Security checks start being missed.
Trump wildly claims egg prices have dropped 50% as Americans grapple with bird flu crisis
Despite Trump's claims on Wednesday, data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate that the average costs of a dozen eggs has actually increased since Trump took office amid the ongoing bird flu crisis.
According to the BLS, the cost of dozen eggs rose from $4.95 a dozen on average in January 2025, to $5.89 in February 2025.

Among his faithful, anything he says is gospel. They will ignore the evidence of their eyes and wallets.

Drumpf doesn't have to worry about re-election (unless he decides to push SCOTUS for a third term) but his ass-kissers do. And Trump would find it hard to sell steaks, bitcoin, hotel rooms, etc. if he fostered widespread and lasting hatred for re-imposing the draft.
Imagine three+ years from now, with (hopefully) no DJT at the helm. Yes, it would look like the beach scene in Planet of the Apes, but then what happens to the GOP, no longer bonded together temporarily by his mucoid demands? Answer: they fragment into sects, no longer bound (as much) by threats of vengeance. One group is the hyperâreligiousâ and another is the legit small govt people, and another are the tech bros - all very very disparate.
Order in da courtroom, cuz heah come da draft!!
Don't dismiss this as hyperbole.
The poor and middle class kids will be conscripted for no less than 2 years National or Military Service. Its in Project 2025. Public, (not Private) schools are being forced to take a Military aptitude tests. The information and scores are being sent to the Pentagon, with no further details supplied to Parents or schools.
Apparently the pressure for schools to apply these tests is enormous, despite pushback.

Unless some right-wing idiots are planning to allow an attack on US soil in order to create an excuse for fighting someone. Can't imagine it's against the Russiansâthe GOP is too in love with Putin.
no, it's going to be against Europe. The US is already siding with Russia. The autocrats hate our heavily legislated, massively bureaucratized system that somehow works very well.
I guess they see it like a massive lobster and want to break open its crust and feed on all that wealth. After Ukraine, Russia will move into the Baltics. Simultaneously, the US will take Greenland. Canada will be put into an awkward position of choosing either an unworkable neutrality or siding with Europe.
That is what the draft would be for. Taking Canada and Greenland. Check out Dugin's concept of geopolitical spheres. All the evidence suggests that Trump has bought into it, lock, stock and barrel.
Admittedly, this is totally nuts. But unfortunately that is precisely what makes it so credible.
Not for a guy that doesn't care about re-election, and his ass-kisser zombies.

Waitasec. Required military aptitude tests? in the US? That doesn't smell right...
Reinstatement of a military draft in the US would be political suicide. Unless some right-wing idiots are planning to allow an attack on US soil in order to create an excuse for fighting someone. Can't imagine it's against the Russians—the GOP is too in love with Putin.

Trump wasnât shy about which team he wanted to win the Super Bowl. Now, after the Chiefs lost, he said theyâll also get a visit â for a title they won five years ago.
So much for meritocracy. Half of the team is no longer on the Chiefs. The Eagles should say "no thanks"....again!
