    Young white men seem to be one of the biggest demographics for trump supporters. It’s not just the old.

      A shit ton of those Caucasians are overweight. Sadly that’s just the state of our health nationally. I went back to power lifting and am getting to my three plate goal for benching. I haven’t lifted this much in decades. But I’m still big bellied. So I have work to do to get ready. But I do expect there to be a need to be in shape soon enough.

          Have you read the military reports on how limited the population pool is for healthy and passable individuals? There’s a concern there isn’t enough healthy fighting age males.

            I haven’t. Is it a function of willing able bodied men being lacking, or is it talking about a draft?

              It gave a warning that there is a shrinking pool of healthy individuals that could serve or pass boot camp.
