      When I started reading the quote, I assumed it was a joke, just from the format, not the content. When I got to the part where it said, “It used to be called the Department of War and it had a stronger sound,” I felt the typical disgust and contempt I usually feel when listening to Trump, and so I knew it was almost certainly a genuine quote.
