Imperialists/colonizers being real for once. It’s not like genocide joe “defended” anybody either…
Departement of distraction from other serious business.
Department of distracting the public from wanting the Epstein files.
Anyone wanna place bets on him introducing a Department of Truth and a Department of Love next?
Terrible 1984 reference. Maybe if this dude was asking for a department of peace.
If you think the state supports truth and love like it supports offensive wars, I have bad news for you.
Better bet is if he lives for another full month. The idiot is circling death bed.
Department of pedophiles
Remember: 77,284,118 people in this country thought this fucking spray-tanned baboon was fit to lead.
Ok, now do the numbers for the other fascist.
And they STILL think this. And before Canadians get all smug, look at how popular Smith and Ford are and how Poilievre got elected by a landslide in AB. The more Doug grifts, the better he does in polls.
Before libs get all smug… They still think kamalacaust and genocide joe were real alternatives.
King Charles called and said stfu AB. true story. First Nations were there too and I think they were filling in the eviction notices
Also AB conservatives won that same riding in the main election too. they are still short the riding pp lost in the first place.
By the by he’s not regained the lead of the party…yet.
I think we are all well aware that we are surrounded by idiots. We live here.
Some of us more than others.
God I fucking hate Louisiana.
Setting aside my Trump hate for a moment: this is a good thing. “Department of Defense” was always a euphemism. “Defense spending” my ass. Let’s call it what it is and then see if Americans feel as good about spending so much on a “Department of War” versus “Defense.”
This isn’t a good thing because it’s not an effort to be more honest, it’s a signal of future intent.
How does this future intent differ from current reality?
The future intent is a bad thing. Signaling it clearly instead of euphemistically is arguably a good thing.
There’s a reason why after WWII the Department of War was renamed Department of Defense.
We weren’t at war. We’re not currently at war, either. Chester’s gotta ask Congress to rubber-stamp a war first.
We weren’t at war. We’re not currently at war
lol ok.
That’s some very antiquated and naive logic. NONE of these conflicts involved a formal declaration of war:
Korean War
Vietnam War
Persian Gulf
Afghanistan
Iraq War
So you’re going to tell me we weren’t at war for any of those? Bullshit. There’s been plenty of work for a Department of War in the US since WW2.
Thinking like that its a good thing right up until the voters are actually stoked about a department of war.
Guarantee it wont be long until youre seeing red hats going off about how cool it is they finally have a department of war as if its a whole new thing.
“Remember how much ass we kicked with only a defense department? Look out world! MIGHTY TRUMP finally made a department of war too!”
I’m sure you’re right about a certain segment of people. I don’t think the euphemistic name is holding those people back from loving the military though.
I do think it’s hard for Congress to sell the general public on “cuts to our defense” though, and cuts to the “Department of war” will be an easier sell.
Do not underestimate this country’s propensity to proudly engage in jingoism. Just look at our history to see how that went.

WOOOAH
It’s the same reason Captain America beats people up with a shield.
It’s hard to think of yourselves as as a saviour otherwise.
Is it bad that my thought was “well at least that’s more accurate”?
My mind went to how “the department of defense” was Orwellian AF. I mean his reasoning is fucked don’t get me wrong.
It was the “War Department” from 1789 to 1947.
And also the Department of the Navy was its own thing for a while, as was the Department of the Army, then Air Force, before getting folded into the War Department. Harry Truman dissolved the War Department in 1947 because 1) WWII was over and so the US was not in a declared war anymore, and 2) there was a larger consolidation of war powers under the SecDef post-war.
If anything, name it the Department of Violence and Death and see how people react.
I absolutely agree with you and surprisingly, Trump on this.
Broken clock and all.
You can tell he’s never read 1984, he’d definitely want more ironically named government departments if he had
I mean, “Truth Social” has all the irony of the Ministry of Truth, though I assume if it was named for that reason it wasn’t thought up by him.
Yeah, in this rare instance, I agree with Uncle Donny. The US hasnt fought a war for peace or defense in over 75 years. Might as well change the name to more accurately depict its purpose. He is still a moron though…
If he’s the moron, what do you call the 77 million who voted for him. Twice.
Cultists.
Even WW2 wasn’t a war of defence for the USA. The only thing they “defended” was a military outpost in the middle of the pacific.
Well, technicallly it’s defense of private interests…
You mean revert back to it’s original name.
So mad that twat missed him and only grazed his ear
You’re talking as it that was not staged at all.
I’ve lost the ability to detect whether this is a real quote or not.
It’s real, sadly, I watched it, my parents in law was watching the stupid statement and I joined them. It was yuck
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.
Anyone care to enlighten us? Because I honestly can’t tell, either.
You can always trust the fact Trump is a monumental moron.
The files ARE the distraction
are you going to post this every time now?
Come on Lucifer!! Take your fucking trash back, already!!
Judaic heaven might actually be hell for him. Sparsely populated grassy knolls, have to walk everywhere, nothing to do but watch sheep and talk to people, and a bigger tyrant that would get pissed off if he starts trying to regain a following.
“we want offense too”
The obese imbecile being alive is offensive. The fact that it breathes is offensive.
And the fact that it’s not strapped to a guillotine that’s got a blunt rusty blade is fucking offensive!That’s very graphic
And necessary.
How does one still support a man child like this?
I guess if you look UP to something like this, it says a LOT about you. Trump supporters are a special kind of special.
Mostly fear, all the way down.
The answer is so simple, they’re all fucking morons.
Be a wo/manchild
