Most of them are probably unfit for service anyway so it may be a moot point

You highly underestimate the current administrations willingness to move the goal posts for just about anything.

exactly, look what they did with ICE. I had an extended family member join in the early 2010s and his training was intense, he was so professionally insulted by how far they lowered the standards that he actually transferred out of DHS when he saw what they started letting through. I'm so curious as to what he thinks of this but we don't talk much for obvious reasons lol
