Trump moves forward with plans to change Department of Defense to ‘Department of War’

"“Why are we ‘Defense’? So it used to be called the Department of War, and it had a stronger sound,” he said, pining for days in which “we used to win wars all the time.” The president added, “I don’t want to be defense only. We want defense, but we want offense, too.”"

So good to have a de-escalation president.  

Uh, I'm so tired of this.  

And I feel like the worst part is that people are not going to admit they were ever wrong. They're going to act like it was inevitable, or that every administration was acting like this.  

Understandable fear but I sure would love if he applies this "offense" logic to Russia instead of cowering like a little bitch at every given opportunity, rushing to kiss Putin's feet and hiding behind "Next Two Weeks" every two weeks. It seems as though in Trump's world, "Department of War" is only applicable to being used on its own citizens.
