I think this is a dumb and bad move. Make 0 sense and will just fuel the dems to cut it if we are ever not in a "war".

A more appropriate name for country that isn't worried about defending the homeland and instead more worried about projecting their interests abroad (often do not align with the people's).

Pro-war democrats and neoconservatives have been beating the war drum for the last 24 years. They should be in favor of the change.

I am as MAGA as anyone and it doesn't bother me but I don't really see the point in this other than to piss off the left.

How much will that name change cost?

Hundreds of millions and countless pointless hours of work redoing regulatory and administrative stuff.

What a stupid thing to do.

Good.

We should have never let the leftists change it to the Department of Defense in the first place.

Had nothing to do with it at all. DoD was created to put the armed forces all under one umbrella, ie combining the Department of War (Army and Army Air Corps-eventually the AF) and the Department of the Navy.

Old Bonespurs thinks doing this makes him look tough.

It merely highlights his impotency.
