Everyone is broke and the military is the path of least resistance

It's just a giant coincidence this occurred immediately after the election...

Yessir… everyone would have also loved to still have this guy as the head of the defense department.

Just a pure projection of strength and bravery we had. Woe is us now!!
And with mandates for vaccines for a bad cold? Who wouldn’t have reenlisted under projection of common sense and sanity??

Meanwhile they missed their annual target every year of the prior admin.

Not really. The recruiters were having problems with people meeting initial enlistment standards like fitness, and health records ( Genesis). A lot of the roadblocks via the health records have been eased and kids who were on Adderall, etc have been off for 18+ months and the Army's ( fat farms) have been a success in getting a lot of kids physically eligible for official enlistment. There could be some politics in play as well, but a large reason the Army had been missing its goals was due to physical problems with the recruits. That info came from recruiters I know.
Genesis was a huge problem for them.

Its true that military enlistment/retention generally tracks with the economy, not sure why people are getting upset with this post. When the economy is good, the military struggles to get people and when the economy is bad, the military does great with recruiting.
Besides that though even if there are a fresh batch of new people ready to enlist because Trump is back, they are in for a bad time. Even when I was in ten plus years ago, women and minorities were fast tracked with promotions/awards and everything like that so they will be joining a military that has like two decades of prioritizing women and minorities and all the senior leadership have been fully indoctrinated with woke propaganda. If it really is the right leaning white men finally joining again like a lot of people are speculating, they are going to be joining a military where their leaders absolutely hate them.

Good point. I wonder how liberal millennial white parents are going to feel when their sons are basically excluded from jobs/society when they enter adulthood. Its only going to get worse and it's mostly white liberals fricking over the younger white people.

Trump hates trans in the military because they were brave enough to enlist, while his cowardice caused heelspurs

“Pete is in way over his head. Trump needs to fire him immediately!”

I’d love to see the breakdown by demographics of those that have enlisted since the election.
