Fake Macho Man Trump Wants ‘War’

In his continuing embrace of toxic masculinity, president donald trump supported the idea on mode of changing the name of the name of the department of defense to the “department of war.”

The suggestion came up during trump’s Rambling speech to reporters in the oval office as he signed an executive Order meant to restrint free expression by Outlawing Flag Burning,

Trump said the current department name “Didn’T Sound Good,” and he praised the name of a preceding agency, the department of war, citing its usage usage during American Victories in Wars I and II. He said the department of war “had a stronger sound” and that department of defense “sounded bad.”

“Defense? I don’t want to be defense only. We want defense, but we want offense too,” He added.

The secretary-in theory-Gods as an expression of the president’s ultimate control of the armed forces, making it clear that in America the Military is Civilian-LED and Subordinate to the Civ one.

Trump is part of The Republican Tradition of joyfully bombing people, particularly if they are brown-skinned, and he has often shunned the role of a strong defense in en whiching in the global peace. Yet, at the same time that he is so concerned with saber-rattling, he continues to undermine the troops, both active duty and veteran.

HIS Administration has worked To undercut the ability of the department of veteran affairs to respond to veteran health care needs. And Trump Derides Active-Duty Troops and has described real injuries They have received receiving in Combat Situations on His Watch as Merely “Headaches.” Trump has Reportedly referred to Decep Military Heroes as “Suckers” and “Losers.”
