Will a rebranded Department of War create fear amongst Americas enemies ?

Trump needs the name change approved by Congress

Don’t think it is going to fly

Is the naming of these institutions a congressionally delegated responsibility?

Yes

Department of Military Preparedness might be appropriate? "War Department" is inexpressibly stupid.

 

[MarcATL]

I think the concept is pretty much meaningless, but a name rebrand doesnt change their mission. So, no, I dont think it will change anything.

So its cool if another president calls it "The Department of Flowers?"

Sure

Remind me not to vote for that dembot

Trump is calling it what Washington and Lincoln did

You dembots might as well call it the department of flowers when you are in office

Im positive that it gives "Pete" a hard on but is their any real value in ths move ?
This isnt an act of similar stature to renamimg the Gulf of America. I dont think it even measures up to the glorious ban on paper straws. Those days seem a long long time ago.
It sounds a bit regal to me.
Maybe donny would find it a lot cheaper to hire a Field Marshall uniform instead. Certainly a lot more fun.
At least he could get Pete a combat jacket.

it's like watching a plant die

 

[Frankeneinstein]

No fake lib aggression

equals no white liberals

In Vietnam, all our allies told us it was a bad idea, but we did it anyway.

when did they tell us this?

 

[BlindBoo]

What it's called doesn't matter. Our enemies, home and abroad will still plot against us.

"Pete"

 

[Tommy Tainant]

Reverting the name of our war-making machine is merely part of a refocusing upon lethality and achieving victory.

In a day-and-age of (1) long-term "pussification" in the West and (2) war-noises from the East... it seems logical enough.

I don't think it strikes fear into potential adversaries but it DOES cut through the bull$hit by re-hanging the Old Shingle.


I'll bet those on your side of The Pond aching for the MoD job are going to be jealous.


Well... now that your own Empire is dead (and now that your Commonwealth is evaporating as well)... perhaps...


Or maybe he can just rent some of the Gold Braid from your MoD... it's not like they're all-that-busy nowadays...


Nahhhhh... Pete's already got thousands to choose from...

Thats a good thing.Our last waars were when we were dragged into Iraq and the Stan by that crazy Dubya fella. Having said that he was Einstein compared to trumpy boy.

Well... the UK benefits from a stable ME as well, so I can see why the UK succumbed to such a talking-point..

And... they DO like to play War from time-to-time... let's 'em delude themselves that they're still relevant...

...Having said that he was Einstein compared to trumpy boy.

As much as think Orange Man is cringe-worthy...

And as bumbling as he comes-off in protracted speeches and spontaneous monologues...

Behind-the-scenes, with the facade-pressure off... I'm not so sure about the Stupidity Factor...

After all... he's fixed the US border, got NATO to commit to FIVE percent GDP, and made several other things happen...

That can't all be luck or coincidence or competent handlers, eh?

We won every war with a Dept. of War then, it was changed to Dept. of Defense and we lost every engagement. Time to go back to success. DEI and Woke are going away and it can't happen faster.

The US was such a woke hellscape in the late 1940s.

Roosevelt and Truman, both woke Democrats.

 

[midcan5]

Nothing Trump does has much value. He is a showman not a doer. Being a draft dodger and coward renaming the defense dept is kinda silly. But the man and his followers are silly so it follows. War huh, what is it good for...

Check the meaning of silly in Google, oh, how it fits.....

PS anyone who uses the word woke as it it means something is a moron.

Just another pointless Trump divert attention away from something else.

The Department of War is not a DEI TRANNY SOCIAL PROGRAM.

I LIKE IT.

FAFO.
