I'd have to imagine the Guard hates it too -- get yanked out of your day job, maybe have to work out childcare and they don't have anything for you to do so you have to twiddle your thumbs at the Lincoln Memorial, a train station or a Krispy Kreme.

The deal is that we pay them a modest salary to stay ready with a weekend each month and a few weeks and we call on them if there's a war or a natural disaster, not to be political pawns or because Trump wants to punish an entire city to avenge Big Balls.

That was the deal. Now it's the deal unless you live in a Southern state, where your governor is either going to call you up to go bake at the border because of a made-up story about a caravan during a Dem prez admin, or send you wherever the R prez tells him to.
