MSNBC’s Eddie Glaude hyperventilates that Trump wants to rebrand the Department of Defense as 'Department of War' because of the admin’s desire to be “manly men."
This is somehow presented as an argument against the idea.

Why not just be really honest and call it the Department of Murder?
The US had a Department of War for 150+ years and it wasn’t until the post WW2 PR and posturing that we changed it to Defense.
Which was exactly when we began our most interventionist and outwardly hostile period of history.
I don’t think the word “War” is the problem here
