Calling the military "defense" has always been doublespeak. Its literally the opposite of what they do. Department of war is the correct term.

Obviously this administration are all monsters, and they're changing the name because they think they think it sounds intimidating. But the name change is the one good thing this administration has done, clearly in error.

Trump is an old dying man, and he wants to be able to say on his death bed that he made permanent changes to the world , by his will alone.

Changing names of organizations (DOD/DOW)

Changing names of places (Gulf of America)

Creation of organizations (Space Force)

Dissolution of organizations (USAID)

Permanent land acquisitions (Greenland, Panama Canal, Sometimes entire Nation of Canada)

This is the exact same mentality of Putin, Putin wont be around forever, Putin wants to be immortalized in Russian folklore.

This is just Trump's dumb ideas of immortality. fingers of it at least

Other than the war on US cities and people that are different than him, what war?

You know when guys buy big trucks to overcompensate their other shortcomings? Well...

That man yells out his own name during sex

Is it because all the wars they lost? Weird flex.

Where does he work ?

You can point this out to the average person, they'll still say you're overreacting.

Like between this rename, and the "trump was fbi informant" bs, I'm wondering if I'm in a simulation, cuz this is absolutely insane, literally is amateur tv script, unbelievable, if this aired on TV, it would have worse rating than GoT season 8.

Every single black, brown, and Asian country, and probably Canada too:

Isn't it interesting? For people who hate "woke" and rally against gender identity transitioning, they sure love transitioning the identity of an entire government department and complaining when people dead name it. Snowflakes, the lot of them.

Edit: For bonus points, remember that these are the kind of conservative that bitch about LGBTQ people "making it everyone else's business," while they themselves are extremely in-your-face about these changes.

did they officially change it from defense? that might be the first honest thing they've done in their miserable lives in pursuit of fascistic grandstanding.

So the orange Cheeto, who is trying to get the Noble Peace Prize… just wrote an EO rename things to the Department of War

God I wish you could turn cognitive dissonance into harnessable energy.

Secretary of w-here are the fucking epstein files?

I dunno, it's a pretty huge deal of a change. It's literally historic and a major sign of the times. As others have pointed out, I actually enjoy this less duplicitous name. But the context of the change does not bode well.

Used to have a roommate like this in first year of college. They just stick to this one stupid thing that they think are hyper-masculine (in his case, it was going shooting and owning big guns) and they won't shut up about it. These fuckers are so annoying. Like we get it bro, you're a big manly man, now stfu about it. These are usually the most childish people irl.

Liver damage needs to hurry TF up breh, he's so embarrassing.
