I just recieved draft papers.  :o
Apparently they want me back in green,  as a National Guard reserve.
First meet is in November.

Most people would find this a bit of a drag, but I'm looking forward to it!

Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

He is in Germany right now, I could ask some friends of mine to make him disappear  ;D.
On the other hand then you are stuck with Mike Pence  :(.

Even worse, he could become a martyr and then we have to deal with that nightmare. And it's not like Pence, Ryan, and Turtle keep will stop doing bad things just because their useful idiot disappeared.

In my optimistic, idealistic vision, he gets shown to have colluded with Russia, then gets impeached, while at the same time, Republicans are voted out of control of the house and senate.

Not exactly a happy ending, but maybe hopefully a bit better than the present.

Not really. A lot of people who were drafted in their youth are expected to participate in infrequent excersises in order to maintain some skills, so as to be able to support the regular military during war or other crisis. Usually local units of the Home Guard are intended to guard important installations and carry out other activities in their local area. The idea being to mobilize a lot of men with training and kit in a short amount of time, and that in-depth local knowledge will serve as a force amplifier.
