And on the other side of his mouth he's saying he thinks he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

History lesson for anyone who needs it, including occupants of the White House: The Department of Defense was created in 1947 by merging the Department of War, the Department of the Navy, and the recently formed Department of the Air Force. Prior to the merger, the War Department managed only the Army. The name Department of Defense was political: it didn’t reuse any of the names of the former departments, so it couldn’t be seen as one absorbing the others, i.e. the Army absorbing the Navy and the Air Force they had just spun off from the Army Air Corps.

I'd tell him to look at the flowers but he paved the rose garden.

he rather paint it gold, of which he is obsessed with doing, not even solid or pure gold.

How are we supposed to know what he's talking about when he tweets that "The Dow is rising up after another successful meeting with Putin"? Is he talking about Dept. of War or Dow Jones?

[–] j5906@feddit.org 7 points 1 day ago

They are the same picture

He doesn't understand the negative connotations behind it and why one of the main branches of the empire needs to be obfuscated in euphemism? I kinda believe the mental decline rumours now, lol, or maybe he's just testing the waters to see if Americans still have that bloodthirst like the good ol' Bush days, idk.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago (5 children)

I think he just likes to dangle something controversial and shiny in his left hand so you forget he’s hiding the Epstein files behind his back with the right hand. He def knows how to rustle the left’s jimmies, unfortunately.

[–] dontbelievethis@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think he is just that simple of a man.

Defense is not aggressive and therefore bad. War sounds aggressive so it's good.

That's it. That is the whole thought process of this simpleton.

Because going to war should not be an ambition you dumb fucking fascist!

[–] Stillwater@sh.itjust.works 37 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Department of "Defense" is just a whitewashing cover for the fact that its a war department, to help convince Americans we need to spend all of our tax money on it... So sure go ahead and rename it, genius

[–] Mrkawfee@feddit.uk 19 points 1 day ago

Agree. It would be a lot more honest to call it the war department.

The Nazis also had a ministry of propaganda which was admirably candid.

[–] griff 24 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Department of Death might sound even stronget

[–] 0x0@lemmy.zip 2 points 21 hours ago

Probably coined by Netanyahu.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

They are reserving that for RFK.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No wonder he's so offensive to all 5 senses.

He's already offensive. Now he wants a whole government department to do it too

[–] shiroininja@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (4 children)

You know, I always thought America’s first authoritarian leader would be more badass, more intimidating, sweats red white and blue and would be an evil genius. Instead, we’ve got this dumbass dying of cankles while he’s being propped up by a bunch of religious cowards.

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago

You drank too much Kool aid then. This is exactly what I expected it to be. America personified.
