[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two new Gen Z voters in 2024. Will be 20 and 18 on election day. They are both interested in politics and very disappointed by the prospect of their choices (likely Biden vs. Trump) but will vote anyway. As a family, we are all discouraged that geriatrics with questionable mental faculties are the only option.  [/quote]

I think they are more likely to be drafted into the service of Biden wins. [/quote]

The 18 year old is headed to university to be in ROTC and willingly serve our country. It's what he wants and has for a long time now. He's also an Eagle Scout. We are very proud of him. We all vote D by the way. :) [/quote]

Similar.

The oldest went ROTC. Went through the West Point process. But got into his ED school and chose that. No regrets. Good experience. But he's a senior now and about to commission.

So things are very real.

The fact that the Commander in Chief is going to be some 80-something rapidly failing geriatric that displays senility and dementia is not ideal. And that applies to both Biden and Trump.

I tell myself that neither seem to be warmongers like George Bush and Hilary Clinton. Nor are they weak and indecisive like Obama when it comes to national security and when to deploy soldiers.

But ugh.

Two very old men that don't give a damn about 21 year old soldiers. Not great. Son is certainly ready to defend his country. But it's hard to have faith in the wisdom and acumen of a couple of extremely old narcissists whose mental acuity is declining with every passing day.

No politics. Just saying it's wrong to have feeble old men make these kinds of decisions. Our system is broken. [/quote]

I'm the mom of the 18 yo signing up to defend our country...for good or bad. He's made up his mind and I'm here to support him. Bad leaders have always sent young men to battle. This is nothing new. I take comfort in him becoming an officer that will likely not see the front lines. He's more of an intellectual type and has devoured war strategy since he was a young boy. I descend from generations of servicemen and could not be more proud that he is carrying the mantle of service. [/quote]
