A former “South Park” scribe has launched a sophomoric website calling for President Trump’s youngest son, Barron, to be conscripted into the US military and serve overseas.
“America is strong because its leaders are strong. President Trump proves that every day. Naturally, his son Barron is more than ready to defend the country his father so boldly commands,” Toby Morton, 50, wrote on the gross website featuring several pictures of the 19-year-old Trump scion.
“Service is honor. Strength is inherited. Dog bless Barron,” the site’s header reads.
Morton, a self-described creator of “anti-fascist websites,” created the site in the wake of the president’s Operation Epic Fury military campaign against Iran, in which longtime dictator Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and dozens of top officials were killed.
“This site is dedicated to honoring the strongest and bravest voices in war. When power is projected abroad, it is only right that strength exists at home. If you’re looking for proven genes, inherited courage, and unquestionable resolve, look no further than the Trump family. Leadership starts somewhere,” the pages “About Us” section states.
The site’s content includes a series of bogus “testimonials” purportedly penned by Trump’s sons Eric and Don Jr., as well as the president himself.
The site includes several links seeking donations at the bottom, including to Morton’s PayPal and Venmo.
Morton has made dozens of sites lampooning political figures on both sides of the aisle, including Elon Musk, former NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, many of them written in first-person.
No overtures have been made about reinstituting a draft to support the US’s military efforts — the armed forces went all-volunteer in 1973.
However, all American men age 18-25 are still required to register for the Selective Service System, which maintains a database of military-aged men just in case conscription ever becomes necessary.
Even if a draft were reinstated, Barron, currently a sophomore at NYU’s Stern School of Business in Washington, DC, would likely be exempt due to his 6-foot-9 frame.
The US Army imposes a 6-foot-8 maximum height requirement due to the challenges of taller individuals from fitting comfortably in military vehicles such as airplanes or tanks.
