The military was opposed to conscription before Vietnam, and their opposition grew considerably as a result of it. Drafted soldiers in WWII at least were patriotic and - for the most part - felt a responsibility to be there. In Vietnam, they had no interest, and actually - in the opinion of the career soldiers - were more hindrance than help.
Furthermore, the draft only became seriously unpopular as the war dragged on over years, and even then only in the left. Today it would be fiercely opposed, across the board, from the very beginning.
No government, outside of an autocracy, will reasonably try to force conscription upon an unwilling populace. It wouldn't work militarily or politically. Today, a draft would be wildly unpopular from the get go, on both sides of the aisle. The military would be opposed. And the voters would, at their first opportunity, vote out anyone who helped implement it. As such, the draft being instituted is absolutely unfathomable in today's environment.
Ignorance combined with arrogance is not a good look, sweetie. Try educating yourself, then gaining some perspective on life.
