What’s the deal with his fans calling him this? What does it mean?
If it’s just an attempt to mock people who are critical of him that went over my head… yeah, that’s probably all it is.

This is classic MAGA where they say 20 different things, many of them competing ("it's not a war" -- "well, it's a war, but it's a 47 year that we didn't start"), then grab what they want later.
What do you say? This is a safe place.

You do find it strange that MAGA has differing viewpoints, that we don't speak in unison, but rather with distinct separate voices which dont mimic the news?

That same group that calls it climate change will call it war.

Yes, in fact that’s what they find it the strangest.

Because China and Russia are in cahoots with Iran. So the controlled media is calling it what it is…a war.
But I do agree that it’s not.

Has Congress declared war?
Congress hasn’t declared war since WWII. Yet, Vietnam, Iraq War I, Iraq War II, and Afghanistan were all wars and no one seriously argues against that.
I do think it’s cute how the Obama Administration called Libya an “aerial action”, and now the Trump administration is using that defense almost verbatim regarding Iran.
It’s a war. All these silly semantic games are an insulting attempt to obscure that fact. A vast majority of the American people are fed up with Middle East intervention, and the administration thinks people are too stupid to know what’s going on.

Still though, this particular instance is worthy of that debate, “is it a war or not,” perhaps more so than any other instance in memory.

If it looks like a war, walks like a war and quacks like a war, it’s a war. Semantics as a gotcha or a defense by the media is irrelevant. When war-like things happen it doesn’t matter what you call it. Blowing things up and killing people is a pretty good marker though.

Paid for by idiotic Democrats.

War is firing missiles into a sovereign country and killing their people.
Does it make you FEEL better calling it an "operation" or some other politically sterile term? Those girls in that school are still dead, no matter what you call it.

More Americans were murdered in Chicago alone last weekend than in the entire 3 months of this Iran "War."

Crying about the media calling it a war when the secretary of the department of war has called it a war countless times is peak cult behavior.
Thats cute. I don't care what they call it, just don't act like its the second coming of Vietnam.
Or act like it's even the second coming of Operation Iraqi Freedom. It's been three months, not a decade, with much of that time spent in ceasefire and no American troops on the ground.
